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.

The colour was very bright, like a peachy beige. My boobs fell out the side.

Always gone for moulded balconette, but as 1 boob a whole size smaller I found they were not fitting great. Assistant in Liverpool shop suggested I try this bra. Wow after 30 years struggling I’ve found a bra that minimises my breasts, makes them look the same size, comfortable and supportive and looks pretty. Love the colours and aim to buy them all. Thank you so much

I love this bra! It feels great on and it is so supportive - my boobs are sad and tired these days after four babies and this bra looks after them so well! They get a fantastic shape back and are really supported all round. I feel great in it, thank you Bravissimo! (I have it in black; can we have a lovely bright cobalt blue now please?)

I would recommend the staff at this shop in Chester. Great advice and fitting service in a relaxed and private atmosphere. Alice was a warm and courteous member of staff who helped me to choose lingerie for a special occasion. I would return to this shop when I visit Chester again.

I found this bra to be a really good fit for me and it looks really nice with all the lace detail. I have been wearing the Envy bra a lot but this is a good alternative.

Review by C on
I finally took the plunge and ordered something other than Alana, but I'm so disappointed in the Clara bra! Yes, it's gorgeous but too flimsy and very stretchy. Just like a previous review, it left me with flat, shapeless boobs. Back to good old Alana for me. Too expensive to take a gamble on this.
My favourite ever bra5 out of 5 stars

Review by Alison G on
I love this bra. I'm a 34FF and it's the best most comfortable fitting bra ever. I had lived in the Panache T-shirt bras for ages but started to feel that these were making me look bigger than I am so I wanted to try something without the padding and this was amazing. I started with the nude, but now have the black the grey/blue and the newest bright pink one. I love them and can't recommend it highly enough.

I purchased this bra after having to return a different one I had ordered online. The staff in the store were brilliant with helping to choose the right bra for me. I had to go up 2 sizes but think that is more to do with me rather than the bra.
