My last bra fitting was at Rigby and Pellar ,and i think i was in the fitting room for about 50 minutes until they could find me a bra that fitted, it then had to be altered ! My visit to Bravissimo was rather different, within 5 minutes, after a chat , the lady returned to the fitting room with 3 bras to try on and the first one (Alana) was just perfect. I came away with 3 new bras which totalled a cheaper price than ... (read more)

I visited the Milton Keyne store. The staff are very polite and professional, make you feel totally at ease. The lady that served me was amazing. There was no rush and I had plenty of time to chose the bra's that I wanted. I was expecting the bra's to be expensive as they are very good quailty but no, they are reasonablly priced and felt fanastic. I would recommend Bravissimo to all of my friends. (read more)

My first visit to Bravissimo and I recommend every woman should go at least once. For the first time ever I am wearing the correct size bra it's changed my figure completely. I want to praise the staff very highly as the time and attention they gave was fantastic, there was no time pressure on me, or pressure to buy either. I tried on as many bras as I wanted to and the fitting assistant was always there to ensure the bras were a good and proper fit. They even recommend that you leave the... (read more)

I have bought my all my bras from Bravissimo in recent years. Their service is top class, their customer services excellent and all the staff are friendly and give outstanding advice. I would not bother going anywhere else now - until I went to Bravissimo, I had never had a bra which fitted properly. (read more)

I went to the Cardiff shop recently and they seem to stock a lot of old-fashioned clothes now rather than bras. The staff weren't that helpful either. (read more)

I have been using Bravissimo for a few years, and have just popped in this week for some more underwear. I use the Milton Keynes shop and their staff are always really friendly. They give great fittings and lots of advice. they don't mind how much time you take, I have been in there an hour before trying on different styles. They give great advice. The selection of underwear is great and I have a few favourite styles that they keep stocking as well. If you have been fitted badly else... (read more)

Have used the online store for a long time now and at first they were great with excellent customer service. I've noticed them really slipping a lot lately and have had a few disappointing interactions with customer service (slow replies, bras that have developed defects then having to pay to return them, improperly marked packages resulting in high customs charges, significant variations between same size of same product). It has gotten to the point that I will stop shopping there as there... (read more)

I went recently to Bravissimo in Oxford Circus with some vouchers and a need to buy some new bras that fitted. After spending a good hour in there with a fitter helping I finally found what I thought were the ones from me, although i did find the 'smaller size' round my back a little uncomfortable.. I have now worn two out of the 3 bras i have purchased and they are so uncomfortable, i am constantly fidgeting with them trying to adjust them to stop it cutting into my skin or slipping down my...

Being from the US I had to order online. I have made other purchases from UK companies before and usually received items within a week of them shipping. Not so with Bravissimo, I have been waiting 16 business days now and still no bras. As any woman with a large chest knows, it's hard to find bras in big sizes. I was so relieved to find this site but because of the length of shipping time I think I will be searching for somewhere else. Very disappointed. (read more)

I had this problem of finding bigger cup bras - that was until I discovered bravellous. They have been trading over 75 years and have loads of bras in my size . I'm an 'H' cup. I now always shop there as their customer service is excellent.

After years of buying expensive bras, having fittings in well known department stores and still being unsupported and uncomfortable I decided to try Bravissimo. I don't have a store in my town so travelled to their Norwich branch where I was fitted by a lovely lady called Fiona. she was so helpful and down to earth. we discussed where I was going wrong and then she found a large selection of bras for me to try until will found the style and size that was right for me. I was so pleased, I... (read more)

I had high hopes to be refitted for a bra by Bravissimo. Unfortunately I found their fitting skills to be unsatisfactory. First I went to their Oxford Circus branch and had a fitter who gave me bras that I could not even do up myself at the back, and the wires were lying low on my ribs which gave me a lot of discomfort. When I took them back I got one of the manageresses to fit me. I came away with 3 bras that did not support my boobs. I am now returning all of them for a refund and have... (read more)

After many visits to Bravissimo in Cardiff, I always find them exremely helpful and very very friendly and customer focussed. I have had a few problems with some of the clothing I have bought at bravissimo (some of the stitching has been quite poor) however the staff are always a delight to deal with, with no quibble, straight forward refunds or exchanges. I always shop at the store for new underwear or clothing as I know that I will get fantastic friendly service. If only all shops were as... (read more)

I was very excited by the thought of a retailer dedicated to ladies of the more wholesome variety and found it, in my opinion, to be somewhat of a disappointment. I thought their designs respectable and yes the customer service was good, no better than any other lingerie retailer, but the pricing I felt was out of this world...and not for the better! They have taken advantage of the forgotten bustier market and women like me should not be obligated to pay ridiculous amounts compared to the... (read more)

I have been a Bravissimo Lingerie customer online and have visited the Oxford, Nottingham, Covent Garden and Margaret street stores, The service is second to none and the range of sizes is fantastic, speaking as a girl with a 34H size boobs, the choice in colours and styles is briliant. I love the clothing, nowhere else can you find tops to cover you so well. My only wish now is that they open a store in the Dover, Deal, Canterbury area. (read more)

Bravissimo Lingerie offer some lovely sets and I have used them on and off for a few years. All are especially for D+ sizes, so you know anything you see is going to be your size. I have found another site 'Uplifted' who do free delivery and they seem to be a bit cheaper. Both are really good and I would definitely use them again.

Bravissimo is really good, before I went to bravissimo I was wearing a size 34 dd and even that wasn't so easy to find in the shops. But when I got measured in Bravissimo I found out I'm really a size 28gg so my back size is a lot smaller than I realised, and my cup size I didn't think was possible on such a small person. If it wasn't for Bravissimo I'd probably be spending about £80 or more on one bra and I'm not even sure where. but thanks to bravissimo who realise that slim girls can... (read more)

Bravissimo Lingerie Shops
As with most of today's women in England it has always been Marks and Spencer's that we have gone for our bras. I was a regular 'Marks and Sparks Bra Shopper' until I was fitted with the wrong type of bra. After 40 minutes in the changing room with an older women and a tape measure pulling at the cups of the bra telling me that it 'fits fine!' I had enough and walked out. I had heard of Bravissimo through word of mouth and decided to head there. As I am a 30dd,...

Bravissimo are a phenomenal company with the power (no jesting here) to change your life. They specialise in pretty bra sets for slim girls with big boobs, in funky colours and designs. before bravissimo, I was on a waiting list to have my boobs surgically reduced. Seven or so years on, I have a huge drawer full of pretty bras in every colour of the rainbow.
The bras are not cheap - £25-£30 would be an average price, but this is still cheaper than the venerable intitution of rigby and...

Bravissimo is a top-notch lingerie shop for women with cup-sizes of D and higher. The staff will do a proper fitting, teaching you how to choose the right bra and will even recommend items depending on your particular needs. The range is fairly large with matching underpants for all the bras and they put out a regular catalogue which you can choose to receive via snail mail or email. Bravissimo also does a range of swimsuits sized like bras and strappy and sleeveless tops with built-in... (read more)

My wife loves her Bravissimo set that I got her for Christmas. Sexy is Ok, so long as it's practical too.
