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 have worn the Panache Tango bra for many years, and as an everyday bra it is very easy to wear and comfortable. I have it in the staple colours, nude, white and black and would recommend it to everyone. True to size and the perfect fit.

Ever since I found bravissimo I always buy this bra, I alway have it fitted so I know I get the right size for me.
The straps a really comfy and don't dig in like some other bras do and I call them ye old faithful as I've never had any problem with them. The wash and dry perfectly and I love them.

Like others, I used to buy this bra all the time - it was my go to style and brand. The under wiring in the last few that I have bought have lasted less than 3 months. I always hand wash my bras and look after them so I was very disappointed.

This is my go to bra now. I really love the round shape it gives and it is the most supportive bra I have ever had. I am short but have a very large chest and there is just no other bra that works this well for me. I bought my first Tango in September 2015 and wearing this bra has almost completely alleviated my upper back and shoulder pain. I just can't believe the difference.
I really like the sheer look and the embroidery is subtle but very nice. I do wish they would also make this exact style without it though since it can show through thin tops.
Very high quality, I have it in black, white and blue and love them all.
It does have to be hand washed otherwise the under wire will tend to poke out.
Very happy with product5 out of 5 stars

I love the tango bra style and fit, and have a number of them- at least one in every colour! Not only does it fit my body well the design on it stops it from looking like a boring cheap bra. I also love that there are a number of options for the matching underwear styles.
Great Bra5 out of 5 stars

Review by Nicola on
I love this bra it is the 2nd one I have bought in this style, the first one I was fitted for in the shop in Norwich and that was over a year ago. I decided to treat myself to a new white bra and looked online and hadn't expected to buy the same again but I am pleased I did I feel well supported and it is very comfortable.
My old bra is a bit worn as i used it as an every day bra so now it has been moved to the bra I use when I am out walking (I am talking miles every weekend) with a bit of archery thrown in for good measure.
So both are very welcome in my wardrobe I hadn't expected my first bra to last this long!!

Review by Liz on
Well I thought it was just me and the straps but having read the other reviews I realise it's not just me...
I have bought this bra for years from the internet and the shop and been fitted, but the last one I bought just slips off my shoulders all the time. Yes I do adjust the straps but they just continually slip off. I have another new one in the cupboard waiting to be used so will be interested to see what this one is like. It is a real shame as it was just so wonderful to wear a bra that fitted with support and looked good.
Such a disappointment1 out of 5 stars

Review by SUE on
I have loved and worn this style for years and enjoyed all the vast range of colours that normally only "small" girls have the option of.
However, recently quality has been in decline and last week yet another one had the wire poke through. Once this happens it never goes back or fits the same.
So I looked to buy a new one and read all the recent reviews. It looks like things have only gotten worse so I have been forced to move on to another brand & style.
If Panache ever regain their quality I will be back like a shot as these are the most comfortable, supportive, feminine and colourful bras I have every had in my 44 years of wearing a bra.
Hopefully all our comments will influence Panache to restore the fit & quality - thanks goodness Bravissimo is here to offer us alternatives.
