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.

Very comfortable and nice styling. Fabric is not scratchy like many lounge bras. I would order several more if they were in stock. More colors please too.

For a wire-free bra this is so comfortable. It has reasonably good support and the style looks like a bikini top! Generous cup size and the chest band is perfect. I did find that I had to put in a stitch where the cups cross over at the front to keep everything in place. More colours please!

I previously gave a glowing review of this bra with regard to fit and support. But after having worn it for a while, I have to say that the placement of the strap adjuster buckle is too high up and irritates a lot. It is placed in an area where a lot of weight of the boobs is held. Please consider redesigning this, Bravissimo!
Also, I am a short person and I need to have it on the longest it can go. I can imagine that a tall person will find the straps too short.

I used a guide for European sizes and it was completely wrong - band too tight, cups way too big. As far as the quality, it was great - well made and the material was yummy.

When I read the reviews for this bra I had to buy it. When I first tried it on it felt great, but after a while the straps started to dig in to my shoulders (no matter how I adjusted them) and the band rolled up constantly. Knew it was too good to be true! It looks great, just a shame it isn't as comfortable as everyone said it was!

I had to make a review as I was so happy with the result of my fitting on the phone. The bra feels so good and supportive. It has been so difficult to find a bra whilst pregnant and this bra is so comfortable that I need to get another one. Thank you so much for your help. I have really been so stressed out with finding a bra that fits, since pregnancies and being in lockdown, so again thank you.

Review by Rebecca on
This bra was suggested as an option on live chat, I wouldn’t have gone for it myself, so glad it was suggested. I am breastfeeding my 9 week old and none of the nursing bras fit, its been so stressful, I ordered every single nursing bra in a huge range of sizes with no joy. Lockdown not helping as not been able to have a fitting. I resorted to a ‘Normal’ wired bra (panache envy as that’s my usual bra) hoping to be able to have a proper fitting in store soon to find something else, but the wires dug in when I was feeding and I was getting sore and risking mastitis. I’m 30J before pregnancy, gone to 32JJ/K now feeding. Wearing Nova in 32J and it’s working well, the only bra I’m wearing in the day now (nursing sleep bra overnight). Would really fit better in a K, however I’m managing. Best non-wired bra I’ve ever tried and lovely soft material. If like me you are struggling with nursing bras give this a go. And please bravissimo, put pressure on the manufacturers to do something about the very sad state of nursing bras for us bravissimo girls at the top end of the cup sizes! Hot milk fits so strangely it just didn’t work at all, the other flexiwire ones don’t go big enough and the non wired ones are horrendous. Please try, breastfeeding is hard enough without this added stress. Nova has saved me though, now please make in bigger sizes too!
