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!

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!

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.

Love this bra. Perfect for lockdown! For the first time in my life I am comfortable without wires sticking into my sides and straps digging into my shoulders. Not to mention it actually looks great under my t-shirts in a way that the so called t-shirt bras never did, because there was always a seam regardless of the brand. I only wish there were more colors, I’d buy this bra in every shade. I bought this bra for working from home but it has more support then I was expecting and I think I can pull it off in an office too.

So, in all fairness, I’ve only worn it once. But it is super comfortable, it doesn’t pinch or squeeze or squish anything. I’ve doing some sweaty, intense house cleaning in it and haven’t needed to adjust it even once. It feels so much more supportive that any other wire free bra I’ve tried - and I’ve tried sooooo many! Also, unlike many other bras I’ve tried, it doesn’t have scratchy lace or grandma bows or ugly patterns. And I don’t have one giant uni-boob. There’s Actual separation! It feels sexy and seems to be a hard worker! I love it. I immediately came back to buy another and see that it’s mostly sold out. Please bring this bra back and in more colors! I’m trying to give you my money! As far as sizing, the cups are generous, which is great since I typically wear one or two cups sizes bigger than is offered here. But the band size is generous too. I’m starting on the tightest hook, so I’d probably go down one band size next time.
