The staff are all most professional, and the measuring service is very accurate. The store also sells swimwear, sportswear, and even nightwear based on not only you're clothing size but your bra size as well. This store is absolutely ideal for those with bigger bust sizes but who still want to purchase pretty underwear, however whatever your size Leia's unquestionably worth a visit.

The staff give 100% always, and they know the stock so well! Today I was seen by Lilly for fitting, she was spot on with the kind of bra I needed, I told her issues I often encounter with my bras and found the perfect bra very quickly giving me loads of similar options. She was just great at not being pushy and overwhelming but also being there, listening to me and respecting my privacy. Also a note to the cashier (young lady with long braids) was really lovely and friendly. Congratulations to Bravissimo u have the best staff set I've met.

Considering the sizes this store caters for, it's quite a disservice that the store itself is so…read moresmall. It means that you can only fit about three customers at a time in here. And if you're a six foot three bloke with that haggard look in your eyes that says "why have you brought me here?!", you tend to stick out like a giant, awkward sore thumb. There's an affliction that is common to shopping with a ladyfriend that is known to us men as They Don't Have What I Want So Now I'm Angry At You Syndrome. It's an affliction that takes the lives of several dozen men a year, as they are bombarded with stilettos coupled with screams of "I ASKED FOR LIGHT CREAM, NOT DIRTY WHITE! GRAGGGH!" However, shops like Bravissimo should be applauded. They take the pain out of TDHWIWSNIAAY Syndrome by stocking very, very specific sizes. If you're in their band, they've got what you need ensuring no more men have to suffer the wrath of a disappointed ladyfriend.

This isn't really for me but I'm sure that there are a lot of people to whom this would appeal. I was a little taken aback by the sight of such stuff but my main aim was just to get a cami/chemise. So, with regards to THAT side of the shop (and that side only!)... It is very reasonably priced and I would recommend it definitely. The service was great and I was asked if I needed any help at all, which I find quite reassuring in a ...specialised shop like this one.

I have no objection to these kinds of shops, and I am pleased to see that they are generally more accepted these days than they used to be. The fact that the sex shops of old, which were predominantly targeted at men, have morphed into emporiums that offer lots of products to enhance female as well as male satisfaction can only be a good thing. Instead of dirty vids, with their ludicrous and often deeply offensive content, as well as a plethora of other products that provide passive forms of 'pleasure', both vicariously and auto erotically, this new breed of shop caters more for a participatory expression of sexual activity, which one would hope would lead to a better understanding of the sexual drives and desires of both sexes, as well as a more democratic delivery of satisfaction all round. This is borne out by Passion's commitment to the idea "that couples who play together, stay together". Nevertheless, I do wonder about what inspires these shops to call themselves things like Passion! Surely the vast number of products available, (sex toys, fetish gear, maids and nurses costumes, amongst many others, books and vids, S and M paraphernalia etc...), are to excite some kind of response in people that need ever increasing stimulus to get them to a place of arousal...? Passion is innate, and doesn't need the merest hint of perversion to excite it. Some of the products that Passion carry are pretty kinky, which is fine in itself, but certainly doesn't conform to my idea of passion. Nurses outfits inspire lust as far as I'm concerned, and love inspires passion.

Producing individually designed, well made clothes at exceptionally good prices compared to the commensurate offerings from the top end of the clothing chain shops, this Scandinavian shop has my loyalty! I have to admit that I often wait for the sales. They really know how to shift stock fast to make way for the new season. Incredible bargains are their only ploy, which suits me down to the ground!

The problem with me reviewing this place is that I'm not really the target market. I could really…read moresee that from the window display but I thought I should give it a go. In case you are wondering why I would be so foolish, I have my cheerleading ball coming up soon. I had found a dress but then it was sold out of my size. In desperation (after looking at many MANY dresses on websites and driving my housemates to distraction) I turned to the shops I hadn't visited before. The staff were really lovely, though none of them seemed genuinely pleased to help me - this is probably because they knew that I wouldn't buy anything... The fact is, though, that I don't think my mother or grannie would shop here...

She said it was impossible I had been told that the item could be returned (but she did say) and when I insisted she agressively stated yelling "I am the manager". She calmed down after I told her it was ok, it must have been a miscommunication and probably she didn't mean to say this item could be returned. I think I shouldn't have to calm down the manager of a store, ask her not to tell at me and to take a deep breath. Simply astonishing that they have such ill-prepared people managing customer service. Overall worst experience ever, never going there again!

I have noticed however that there's actually been quite a bit of refurbishment done to the place. To be honest though it merely seems like they've merely moved things around rather than drastically improved the place. Women's clothing (which includes brands such as Topshop, Jane Norman, and Miss Selfridge) is now upstairs, and they have extended the shoe, beauty and bags sections. I must admit the fact that they now stock GHD straightness did impress me, but aside from that, I wasn't particularly fussed. I wouldn't let my less than positive opinion put you off; this Debenhams is fine, and far superior to the one in Swansea. I also think that if you're on more of a budget it's a very good alternative to Cardiff's two other department stores.

I think I'm right in saying they have just knocked through the upstairs which makes it longer and gives it an additional entrance in the new section. The shoe department is much better now and the whole new part seems much younger than the rest of the store. I personally like the beauty section in this store, and they even have a Clarin's Skin Spa is you fancy a bit of extra spoiling. Worth checking out are the designer at Debenhams like Betty Jackson and Julian MacDonald and I really like the Red Herring selection.
