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.

Really comfy and great for sleeping, the only con is I'm afraid the straps will tear at the front stitch - it's really tiny considering the weight it is carrying :)

Review by Heather M on
I thought I would try a non-wired option during my pregnancy (not sure why I keep trying...). I agree with another reviewer that this is not for larger sizes. I ordered a 32GG and it fits so small in the cup and is so low cut, it's almost like it was mislabelled. To get coverage like the photo here I would have had to go up at least 2 cup sizes. Absolutely no separation, you just end up with a squished mono-boob. Very unflattering. Straps are comfy but it makes me feel ugly and 'bleh' to wear it, even to bed. Regret the purchase.

Review by Marie on
I've bought several larger cups styles from Bravissimo over the years so know what I need in what styles. As soon as I tried it on my boobs were spilling out under my arm pits.. so I jiggled about.. and then got a horrible mashed boob in the middle. These feel like several cup sizes too small but as I was already in the largest cup size, a 'K', I knew I couldn't go any bigger and the back band already felt too loose. There is no support at all and my boobs dropped just as much as if I didn't have the bra on, but now they rub in the middle... All I wanted was my boobs to be covered, separate and at least a little bit raised. Alas this and the grey will need to be returned.

Review by Sophie on
This is honestly a complete life changer and I wish I had known about it sooner. I was very sceptical about a non-wired bra, as I wasn't sure if the support would be there, but it is. I purchased this as a comfy around the house bra but have just purchased a second as it is so comfortable. I hate putting my wired bras on now as this is so much more comfortable but still offers the support I need. Would 100% recommend.

Review by Ife O on
Bought this, wore it once - have a feeling it will end up being donated. The band is petty snug, so tricky to get on & fastened, and not that comfy over night. I think this is probably great for smaller sizes, but honestly, bigger boobs probably shouldn't bother. It kind of folds under boobs at night so you end up with this burrito, mono boob effect in morning. Nice. Shoulder straps are nice though. That's why it got the third style star on the review.

Review by Emily on
This bra is super soft and comfortable! My only suggestion would be order it one band size down, as it is very generous sizing. Perfect for holding breast pads in place and works a charm for fuss free night feeds! Happy to lounge around the house in it too, but not suitable for public use.

Review by Jamie on
While perfectly comfortable while horizontal, any movement quickly creates the uni-boob effect. In my climate, it's most uncomfortable. 4 stars for being extremely comfortable and effective it its single purpose, but not as a general lounge bra.
