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 swim regularly and finally splashed out on this swimsuit after looking at reviews for around 18 months. It is as good as everyone says and I will be buying another one in a different colour.

This suit is just what I want as far a styling goes. It’s big in the body and small in the cup on me. I will keep it because shipping and duty are killer, but next time I will order 36I instead of 38HH.

Ordered this when I went back to serious swimming at our local pool. Exactly what was needed, great support and flattering fit.

This swimsuit feels nice, but the one I ordered was too big in the back, luckily it has a lot of stretch so I imagine if I ordered a band size down it would still fit well around my bum and tum. However, I didn't read the description properly and hadn't realised it was wired (which wasn't what I was after) so I won't be ordering another - totally my fault there though!

A brilliant swimming costume that looks good, is properly supportive and which is actually designed to swim in. I have been wearing it to swim 5km a day in salty open water and it stayed in place with no chafing or uncomfortable wiring. It drew compliments from others too. A rare find! Would buy more if they did other colours.
