Advantages: Really Personal Service, Fantastic fit

Disadvantages: Possible wait, seems slightly pricey but worth it

I've used the mail order service that Bravissimo offer for a while now and it's very good - no complaints at all - in fact it's great and they give really helpful advice but you know after a certain point after you've fulfilled the customers order and got the goods there real quick how can you much extra to that?

Well. I went into the New(ish) Bravissimo shop in Leeds and found out. In order to get a fitting you need to book in, so if you are planning an expedition at a weekend or lunch break it might be a good idea to phone ahead and make an appointment or at least pop in and then pop off and have a coffee. That said I only had to wait a couple of minutes for my fitting.

First of all you get shown into a huge changing room which has a little dressing gown to put on inbetween bra's. There's plenty of room to bounce about if you are trying on sports bras!!! There was a conversation about exactly what I wanted style, fabric content and then they are brought to you and fitted by the assistant. The woman who fitted me was fantastic - really felt like what I wanted was being taken into account rather than making the best of it as had been my experience in other places.
I also learnt that I shouldn't grab my boobs and hike them up into position... What I do now is get the bra on lean forward and pull it away from my chest a bit and hey presto they get their of their own accord and stay there (if the bra fits right).

I LOVE Bravissimo but you're brave buying stuff mail order. When I bought two sun tops there I had to buy two different sizes even though they both fitted me, the girl said that they make them all white and then dye them different colours and the different dyes make them shrink different amounts! Then again I don't care, it's lovely to go into a shop where I can get the clothes to button up and don't feel like a complete mutant! Cheers Sweary.

nope it was set up by someone who was fed of not getting bras that fitted.. La Redoute is part of the HUGE fashion multinational Moet Hennessey Vuitton ( i think thats the right name - anyway they own a massive amount of clothingcompanies)
