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.

Although the bra is see through which I wasn’t too happy with at first-
This is one of the most comfortable Bras I’ve ever worn. It gives great support and full coverage. It gives great shape too! Really pleased

Review by Neve on
I purchased this item a while ago and I loved the style, fit and support. It was both sexy and comfortable and all in all a lovely bra. However by the second time wearing, the lace ripped while putting it on despite doing so very carefully. I contacted Bravissimo and they were very helpful in getting back to me and offered me a replacement which I received. However it has now happened a second time after maybe a couple of months of wearing...again, I am always careful when putting it on as I don't want it to happen again. This time I think it happened while I was wearing it during the day. I don't know whether I will be liable for another replacement since it's been a couple of months, but the reason I'm writing is because I feel it'd be such a shame for this bra to be taken off sale, but the lace really does need to be stronger. One other small thing is that because it is so supportive it does make your boobs look quite small, as they are protected/enclosed from the top. Maybe another version with stronger lace and more cleavage/push could be considered.
Amazing!5 out of 5 stars

Wow! This has to be my favourite bra ever! I had seen this bra online, but with it just going up to a G cup I didn't think it would fit. I braved going into the recently moved and reopened Nottingham store, as I was desperate to buy a couple of new items, and was really pleasantly surprised with the whole "new normal" experience. Staff were so helpful and the fitter very patient! Along with a couple of other styles I asked to try this on in a 36G, more in hope than anything, but pleased to find the sizes run bigger. The 34FF fit me beautifully and it is just so comfy and light, but has the support as well. I was so pleased that I ordered the Glossies animal print colour online when I returned home. I gave the bra 4 out of 5 for true to size, but really I don't think there is an accurate true to size, as although 34GG is my bench mark, I also have bras in 34H and 36G too.
Please make this in bigger cup sizes!4 out of 5 stars

Review by Diane on
Read all the reviews and decided to take a gamble, as due to lockdown, could not get into shop. Cup size is ok, but after wearing for a couple of times, is so uncomfortable. The wire comes up really high, and leaves red marks on my boobs. The lace is rough and really rubs after a while. The overall shape makes my boobs look like 2 puddings. Not happy. Roll on shop opening and can try again. Bought 2, so that’s £64 sitting at the back of the drawer.
Lovely!5 out of 5 stars

I bought the black & grey (lacy) & nude (non lacy) and love them. They're my first Glossie. Makes a change getting a delicate bra when you're a 'bigger' shape.

I love writing about bras. This bra is honestly my favourite bra. It is so comfortable and gives such a natural shape. The lace detail makes it a really attractive bra on (more so than the plain glossies version). If you've not tried non-padded bras before, this is a good intro.
I am usually a 32GG but I can fit into the 32G in this style (the band is too snug at first but the cup size is fine because it's stretch lace).
It would be nice if Bravissimo stocked this style in more colours (I own it in blue and red but I know there are also other colours out there!)
