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.

At last a comfy bra I’m not desperate to remove when I get home... and whose wires actually sit on my sternum. Just ordered another 3.

This is such a good fitting and uplifting bra! Having breastfed two children many years ago I felt I would never again have the uplift I once had, but I was mistaken! The shape is flattering and the bra is extremely comfortable.

I cannot describe to you the feeling of wearing this bra for the first time. It was like someone was holding my boobs carefully in their hands. Fit was great, even if the seam makes them look a little pointy (maybe?). 100/10 would buy again.

Review by Sarah on
I first found this bra last July when I was looking for a white bra to add to my everyday collection. This was the first white bra I tried on and it fit so perfectly that I walked out of the Birmingham store with it on (after paying of course)! As some have said, the bra gives a very slight "conical" look but that didn't bother me at all - personal preference! The bra has stretch lace which allows it to fit to your shape - hence the perfect fit! After a good lot of use, eventually the lace does lose it's shape and you will have to buy another one (as I have just done). Having said that, this is nothing unusual and only after a good lot of wear (like any bra really). The pattern is really pretty and overall it is a comfortable and flattering bra. Definitely a firm favourite and I'm sure I'll be buying it for years to come!

I've purchased this bra on a number of occasions and have always been a huge fan, great fit and always comfortable and supportive. Until my last purchase, which as normal I buy in 2 colours.
Not sure what's changed but not nearly as supportive and comfortable as previous purchase, constantly adjusting, don't think there's any change in my size but a fitting might be needed before next purchase.

Review by Susan B on
I've been buying this bra for a few years now and being a larger bust size, 40HH, I find it very comfortable and holds everything in place. Saying that I would love to buy this bra in more colours, I have all three colours but would love some different ones just so it would be a change. Love this bra.

I like the design of this bra but the shape it gives isn’t good for me! Like a previous review it looks very pointy and old fashioned.
