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.

Review by Emily on
After reading the reviews here, I sized up from a 34HH to a 36HH and it fits really well. I like the crossover detail on the top, and the textured fabric is flattering.
I did also buy some of the matching high waisted briefs, but sadly they ran even smaller. I'm usually a 10-12 in bottoms, so I got a M, but they were ridiculously small. Couldn't even get them over my thighs. Would have exchanged them for a larger size, but L and up are all sold out. Luckily, I can find high waisted black bikini bottoms elsewhere.

I am 40j and the cup is lovely but also a big girl with the mummy tum. Lively fit and feel secure. Only downside is for when your swimming bottom of the tankini comes up showing the stomache. So if you have a mum tum you will need to invest in some high waisted pants.

Perfect fit so comfy. Very flattering neck line bought 36j normally a 34 Jj but hate struggling to close the back strap as swimwear always has less give. But this was so easy to put on.
Loved it!5 out of 5 stars

This was just perfect for my recent holiday you can use it for swimming but also as a top to wear as the material doesn’t shout you are in a swimming top! The style of the bust is very flattering and I am someone that is not confident about my large bust, but I felt positive and comfortable wearing this! Comfy, stylish and great if you get a discount as I did by using my Bravellous points voucher! X

For bigger boobs this style goes on really easy. With so much support I need I found the east pull on top really manageable and if another colour comes available I'm buying it.

The tanking top flared out on the hips - not a good look. So it was returned.
