I am excited about my 1st trip to Maui, but I leave day after tomorrow and I still have work and vacation tasks to complete. Short on time, I was thrilled to discover that I can buy a good bra within walking distance of my home. Unfortunately for me they made it damn near impossible to buy a bra from them. I would hate to think the experience was personal, but once I found the bras -which I wont even get into why I was brought the opposite bras of what I said I wanted then was able to find bras I had described myself- they told me 1 of their 2 fitting rooms was occupied and the other was being reserved for an appointment. They said I could use the stockroom if I felt comfortable and that no one would walk in on me. I agreed. As soon as I was about to get undressed one the employees walked in. I kinda wanted to see if she was going to leave quickly, but instead she sat where food was in front of the computer. I basically left the stockroom. As politely as could at this point I explained that I really just wanted to buy a bra but that they make it difficult. I asked when the appointment was due and they said in 5 minutes.... who knows if the appointment ever showed, but I couldve been in and out by then. I asked when the other room would be available -obviously looking for an estimate- they said they dont put a time on it... In the end when I had every right to be annoyed, all I got was attitude. I will go bra-less before I will ever step foot in that stupid store again. So I guess they win, as I get the feeling they didnt want me as a customer in the first place.

I had an amazing experience at A Revelation in Fit. Ive known for years that my bras did not fit at all, but after a failed experience at Victorias Secret, I wasnt looking forward to trying to get fitted again. Im a rather modest, private person so I was a bit nervous, but my fitter (Hayley) made what could have been an awkward, uncomfortable experience very relaxing and even fun. She checked everything I tried on and even explained why exactly the bras I tried on were (or were not) good fits. I left with two bras that actually fit me and the difference has been amazing! My only regret is that I waited so long.

I cannot talk up enough the awesomeness of my fitting experience at this place. They truly have a fit for everyone. I was wearing a 32B and walked out with 30DD. (WTH?) I was shocked but they fit so well and were so pretty and comfortable. The staff was professional and service was top notch. Bras go from about $44 to $119. I was less enthused about the pants as theyre not practical enough. Very frilly. Overall I love this place and my boobs are back up in the air where they belong. Also note its best to make an appointment. Not a pop in kind of place.

Every single person Ive had go to this store has fallen in love with it. Really helpful for your loved one, or a friend struggling with bra troubles. Pro tip: Call in ahead and schedule an appointment, and give yourself at least an hour. Thinking you are just going to walk in and out is a mistake, because the employees take their job seriously and try to make sure you will end up with the perfect bra. You can also buy gift certificates and it makes a great Christmas or birthday gift!

Disappointing. Was a regular customer and liked the selection and convenience and supporting a small business until I was incorrectly fit. Not only was the return not possible but the attitude of the manager and owner were unpleasant and certainly not interested in my continued business. If you shop here and have any uncertainty about the size or comfort dont wear the bra or dispose of the personally made receipt as they wont honor a credit card receipt.

Make an appointment, its worth it to ensure you get a fiting room. The staff are extremely sweet and accommodating - they will let you try on everything in the store! They have great advice and suggestions, and are able to accommodate larger breast size (not just beige and black grandma bras, thank you!) Overall a great experience.

Everyone I know who has gone here has been amazed how we gave gone thru life (whether 20 or 40 years) wearing bras that didnt fit like this. You should schedule a fitting, as the fitters know their brands and styles very well. After a few tester bra sizes and styles, youll have a line-up of options that each fit like magic.

To all my girls that really struggle with your bra: I would really recommend this place. They measure you, they take their time with you, and they have -very cute, comfortable, and affordable- bras to choose from. Today, Bonnie was helping me. She was super nice and helped me with all my questions.

Just brought my wife here...it has been a struggle to say the least to help find her matching tops to bottoms...the staff was patient, helpful, found her actual sizes and matched tops-2-bottoms! Thank you all so so much

gorgeous lingerie, cheeky retro panties & stunning bras with super helpful staff. in the pricier side, but quality is worth extra.

The Los Altos store just opened. They were wonderful! I found 3 bras that fit so beautifully, thanks to my "fitter" Charlotte.
