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.

So comfy, the lace makes this look great on whilst also providing the necessary support

This bralette is soft and comfortable to wear. For me, however, I have a problem with the underband which rides up when I'm sitting down. I am quite short (5ft 3ins) so it would probably be fine if I were taller!
Sooo nice not to have bones!4 out of 5 stars

A lovely item, but one I will only wear indoors or under slouchy tops. When you are as big as I am what this bra does is push your breasts together - close together. This results in a not too impressive outline and also creates a lot of sweat through the day. The bra IS incredibly comfy and I wear and wash this because of that - great round the home and dog walking. But it's not for your best dress or clingy top!

I love having the best of both worlds: great lift and shape (no more uni-boob, they aren't smooshed under my armpits or drooping down toward my waist), and all-day comfort! Loved this so much in black, I went ahead and got the navy/gold as well. Only minor quibble is that lace, being lace, is a bit less comfy than a smooth fabric would be. But it's so pretty I just don't care.

This bra doesn’t give a good shape but is more comfortable than my underwired bras so I’ll continue to wear it home. I’d prefer if it wasn’t lace but have noticed that stretchy lace has become ubiquitous.

Review by Brenda L on
I’ve looked at these bralettes before, read reviews and decided to take the plunge…quite literally.
It gives absolutely NO SUPPORT…to be honest I’m not sure why they are made for bigger ladies…..it wasn’t even comfortable and gave me no shape either.
Very disappointing waste of £35.
