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.

Tried this on in store and fitted well and very comfortable from the outset. Gives a clean smooth line under T-shirts.

After wearing about 5 times, I'm finding the underwire is starting to dig in more under my arm. I think a few more wears and the wire will break through the fabric which is a shame. It gives a decent shape and provides good support and the straps haven't fallen down which I usually get with my other bras. Generous cup size so it's best to size down one cup.

I absolutely love the Freya Idol Bra! I had a fitting in the Leeds store and they were wonderful. Very helpful and very attentive.
The bra itself is very comfortable and fits beautifully.

Review by Debalina D on
I was very excited to discover this bra company that would finally support my girls. I got three bras, and idol was one of them. I sized up appropriately, however the bra cups are too small. The fit was disappointing and I am returning the other two. Would have liked to return this as well, except that I tried wearing it for half a day, hoping it would get more comfortable, but sadly no. I do not recommend these bras for women cup sizes, F and above.

This is one of the best bras I’ve ever worn! It’s perfect - very supportive and I love the padding - it makes me feel I have perfect boobs!
I just wish there were more colours to choose …
