Did you know we don't use tape measures at Bravissimo? Instead we fit by eye as knowing how a bra should look and feel is the best way to find your most comfortable fit - here's how…
How do you know if your bra fits right?
1
How should your band fit?
Most of the support comes from the underband. It should be horizontal around your body without riding up or digging in. We recommend fastening a new bra on its loosest hooks so that you can tighten it if it stretches over time.
2
Where should the underwire of a bra sit?
The underwires in your bra should sit flat on your ribcage (not your boob!) all the way round to your armpits. The wires between your boobs should lie flat against your chest without digging in, rubbing or poking out.
3
How should a bra cup fit?
Make sure your boobs are fully in the cups – a bit of a scoop, wiggle and jiggle usually does the trick! You should fill the cups without any bulging or wrinkling even in a lower-cut style and there should be a smooth line, with no ridge, where the top and the side of the fabric ends.
Not sure what size you are, or feeling uncomfortable in your current size? Don’t worry, we’re here to help! A whopping 92% of women change bra size after their first fitting with us, so you’re not alone! We promise we can find you the uplifting fit that you deserve.

Lovely costume. I tried on a number of sizes but it was always too long in the body, so baggy round the bottom area.

Very colourful and fitted snuggly everwhere apart from around my bum. As this arrived just as I was about to go away,I sewed tapes to make a drawstring effect. Maybe I am not long enough in the body. Good fit round bust.

I’ve got 3 other Bravissimo swimsuits in this style but this one is way too big ever wear so had to return. I wondered if the wrong size label had been put on but it is also too long in the body which could be an advantage for tall people.
Love them5 out of 5 stars

Lovely fabric design but unfortunately far too long in the body. I’m 5ft 4 and have ordered swimsuits before but yet to find one that fits my body. It’s a shame Bravissimo don’t do standard and tall. Plus I ordered my normal bra cup size, but the cups were far too big. A shame, as I would have re-ordered in a different cup size if I thought the length was going to fit.
If you're short, this probably isn't the right one for you 😕!2 out of 5 stars

Loved the print but, sadly, it was too long in the body for me - being only 5' meant I had a saggy bottom! Also, whilst the bust & cup size was perfect, the outer material was wrinkly & didn't look right at all. After an exceedingly helpful conversation with a lovely lady in customer services, who suggested I try a tankini, I exchanged it for the Palma style, which is perfect. Thank you to that lady, because without your advice, I would probably have ordered & returned a few more swimsuits! 🙌😊
