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 bought this bra just to wear around the house or in bed, however I've ended up wearing it all the time. It's not as supportive as other styles, but has no wires that dig in under my arms, and is suppportive enough! Please, please do it in other colours.

I was keen to find a non-wired bra for WFH. Unfortunately, without the under wire, all the load bearing has been transferred onto the too narrow shoulder straps. Usually I’m keen to take my bra off at the end of the day, but the pain in my shoulders mean I don’t think I’ll make it to lunchtime in this one. The sizing is great, and I liked the material and the make. Maybe wider straps would help but I think I’ll stick to my trusty underwired models.

This bra would be super comfy, only the shoulder straps are so short! I am 5 foot 2 and they are so short and tight on the longest setting, they rub my shoulders all day. I wish I had sent it back, wouldn’t recommend!

This was better than I'd anticipated and I really like wearing it. Two changes I would like to see; the shoulder straps are too narrow and end too soon over the shoulder. On the model they come onto the scapula, on me they are sitting right on the shoulder by the end of the day which cuts in and is uncomfortable. The second change is where the cup seam runs; currently it runs outside of the (or at least my) nipple line which gives a slightly frumpy line. By the end of the day, my boobs have splayed and flattened a bit in the way of non-underwired bras (is that too harsh!!), but better than many so called bralette styles on those of us blessed with bigger boobs. So it is nearly an A1 bra, but the straps particularly stop me from buying a second. Some other bold, but not brash, colours would be a bonus.

My search for the ultimate lounge bra is complete! Nova is PERFECT for working at home, doing chores, running errands in the casual, or just chilling on the couch. Sufficient support and separation for these unruly beasts without pulling on my shoulder straps. They don't squish, smash, flop, or fold, and I can't even tell I'm in a bra. Customer for life, Bravissimo!!!

I've been looking for a non-wired bra to wear under medical scrubs. I ordered initially in my regular size and I was very happy about the comfort of the cups and the separation (so difficult to find a non-wired bra without uniboob!). Unfortunately, I had the same issue stated in other reviews about the metal on the straps (very painful)... so I sized up in the cup and it was perfect to give ease to the straps and increase comfort!
