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.

I just recently brought this bra but had to return it as cups were far too big, very nice material but not for me.

Review by Sara on
Absolutely delighted with it. I selected it on the basis of excellent reviews. I wanted a bra that was plain with no fancy lace or anything like that but that uplifted, supported and was comfortable. Just giving it its first outing today and it's all those things. With some brand's I sometimes think oh I'll have a day off of bra wearing but this is so comfortable and no jiggling if you break into a run! My last bra was an E and I haven't put weight on so perhaps it's size is a bit smaller than usual. I didn't have a fitting as such but the amazing staff can usually just look at you to know your size. I always ask staff to check how it looks on me. Bravissimo, Bravissimo!

I have just received this bra this morning tried on and, my goodness, the cups are so big I could have put both of them in one cup. Sent it straight back.

Been trying for ages to get a good replacement for the old Freya Rio and seems like I have found it.
I'm quite petite, but I can get the straps short enough on this bra. Just seems that I can breathe so much more easily!

I love this bra! I purchased it with great expectations and all were met. This bra is invisible under shirts and blouses, soft, comfortable, has great side support, and is fantastically simple in design. This bra has become my go-to bra!

This bra has a firm fabric and I therefore feel that it is more sturdier then other bras I have tried on. That said it is not a bad fitting bra and i feel very secure in this bra. I bought all colours except the the navy at my fitting just over a year ago and they still feel sturdy and safe.

Review by Kate on
First ordered in my usual size, 32G. It felt a tiny bit tight on the band and slightly small in the cup; but also I didn't like the three hooks. As I've put on a weight I thought I'd try the 34FF instead. Again it is so close to being a good fit, but this time a little on the large side in the cup and band (fine on the tightest hook). I think the issue is that the wires are the right size and shape but there is too much volume in the forward direction for me. It is actually very comfortable, it's just the slightly pointy shape I'm unsure about (it would suit someone with a fuller shape)... I may keep it as it's so comfortable and pretty but still on the hunt for the perfect everyday rounded shape.
Love this bra so much!5 out of 5 stars

Bought this in black at my last visit to the shop just before lockdown. Worn it so much as it’s so comfortable. It gives me great shape and perfect support. I’m so pleased with it I’ve just ordered it in navy and beige. Highly recommend it.
