I have been years overdue for bras and wanted to get well fitting, quality bras. I had no idea where to start and the employees there were so incredibly helpful! I got 3, it was ~$70 per bra and is definitely worth the price! read more

I have been a Belle Mode customer since 2016 - a decade now. The selection is dependable and beautiful. The store is very well laid out. The staff is friendly, and exceptionally knowledgeable. I no longer live in Virginia, but I do travel back to the area annually and I rely on these wonderful women to help me make sure I am correctly fitted and feel comfortable and beautiful. Good lingerie costs, but it also lasts. I have never purchased a bra that fell apart shortly after buying it from Belle Mode and I have gotten miles out of their items. Girl math = spend a decent amount on a few really good bras and spend less overall compared to cheep options that fall apart quickly. read more

After going braless through Covid and then guesstimating my size/ordering online thereafter to weary those ill-fitting turned ratty AND ill-fitting bras into 2026, I felt it was time to get fitted and invest in quality bras that fit. I found this place online and drove out to Fairfax from Arlington and it was so worth it! The ladies at Belle Mode really took care of me. I found out my true size which was way off from my "guesstimation." My swimsuits are no different than my bras and when I saw that they carried super cute swimsuits of varying cup sizes (I'm busty but not a large person, so it's hard to find a suit I don't spill out of), I decided to get a new suit too. I really valued their opinions. Everything about this store is so positive and supportive (pun intended). And, their prices are pretty reasonable. What a great find! Will not shop for intimates anywhere else going forward! read more

I wish I could give this place a million stars! As the mother to three daughters, I am so grateful for the expertise and knowledge Nicole has at Bella Mode. We have been seeing her for years, and she not only educates us, but she makes each of us feel comfortable and confident (and we are pretty modest people). :o) One of my daughters recently had a breast reduction and now she feels great-- and confident! The right fit can be life changing. Every one of the bras I have gotten are very good quality and will last a long time. Completely worth the price. There is also swimwear and lots of choices for athletic bras. Nicole will special order sizes and colors, too. Thank you to Nicole and her employees. You go above and beyond. And you really do make a difference for my family of girls! read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about this boutique! After my mastectomy/reconstruction, I was nervous about finding bras that would actually fit well and make me feel comfortable -- and even beautiful -- again. The owner and staff at Belle Mode (Nicole, Aly, Ardelle) were incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable. They took the time to properly fit me, explain my options, and make sure I left feeling confident. Their selection of bras is gorgeous, high-quality, and thoughtfully curated for all body types, including post-surgery needs. The personal service and attention to detail truly set them apart. I'm so grateful to have found this place -- it made a world of difference in my recovery and self-confidence. read more

As uncomfortable it is for me to remove or put on a bra in front of a total stranger, it was well worth it to get a great fitting bra. They aren't any more expensive than VS and you get a much better fit and selection. read more

I had a bra fitting after postpartum and weaning and Alison was beyond wonderful! I told her that this shopping trip was life-changing, and I meant it. Apparently I've been putting on bras incorrectly my whole adult life?! She helped me understand why some bras give me issues (straps falling off my shoulders) and what to look for based on my individual proportions. I also got to see a very sensitive and respectful interaction providing recommendations to someone about to get a mastectomy. One note is they are temporarily closing until May, when they will open in a new location in downtown Fairfax. I'd recommend Belle Mode to anyone looking for quality bras or lingerie, especially if you need help finding the right size or style. read more

I worked with Ali to find a prosthesis and bra aster a single mastectomy. She was fantastic and the store had a lot of beautiful things. I'll be back. read more

My friend and I came in a few weeks ago to get refitted after having our children. Nicole was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable; she helped both of us at the same time in separate fitting rooms so we were comfortable. We both were resized and purchased good quality bras. We will be back! read more

I had such a nice experience here! Aly, the lady who fitted me, was so kind, knowledgeable, and professional. With just one measurement, the first bra she picked out was one of the ones I came home with. She was so patient while I tried everything on and I'm so happy with my purchase-- if I hadn't already come home with 2 perfect bras, I would totally be back! 10/10 I would recommend to anyone who wears bras! read more

Would shop there more often if it was closer to home. The do have a website. Good selection and service. Much better than going to a department store. read more

This place is terrible. The saleswoman took my measurement and when I asked her what it was, she said, "I really don't know. " She guessed at a few sizes and the bras she brought to me did not fit well. After about 4or 5, I just said enough. I felt like I could've been there for 45 min with the same result. Memo to management: If you open a specialty store, shouldn't your salespeople be trained well in that specialty?? read more

Great find in Fairfax! I've become increasingly dissatisfied with my bras from Victoria's Secret. I feel that VS bras are stylish but lack the quality I expect for something that costs me $40-50 a pop. This place is great! Like most women I've been wearing the wrong bra size. In addition to informing me on this point the women who did my fitting explained that the size will also very somewhat with the style of bra (e.g. racerback vs. standard, etc.) I felt no pressure whatsoever to purchase anything and had a very relaxing experience bra shopping. The shop assistants checked that each and every one of my bras was fitting me correctly and even adjusted the straps to show me where the bra should be sitting to fit correctly. I learned a few things including: 1. Your bra size can vary with the style of bra. All of your bras do not need to be the same size. 2. The band that goes across your back should be resting at the smallest area of your back for the best comfort and support. 3. The bra should fit you on the loosest clasp (i.e. the back strap should be at its largest size when you wear it...initially). The main reason for this is that your bra loosens somewhat over time and the tighter clasps are actually meant to account for this and extend the "lifetime" of your bra. Brilliant! Especially if I'm paying $40-50 for these booby contraptions. For the larger (or tinier) busted women out there I should mention that they carried ALL sizes and if you find a bra you love that is not in your size they can order it for you to pick up. Lastly, when you check out they will save your purchases and preferences for easier shopping the next time you come in (if you so desire). Overall, I ended up leaving with SIX bras. One of my favorites was the "Montelle Intimates" push-up bra. I normally hate push-up bras but this was one of the comfiest ones I've worn. I did not feel that my boobs were awkardly sitting on a shelf and it gave me some AMAZING cleavage. I actually ended up getting one in black and one in nude. Lastly, I got a Natori robe (that I had actually been eyeing on Nordstrom's website) and by god it is the best robe I've ever had. I'll be back:)! read more

This shop had a fishing line of bras hanging outside today on the trees, from the outside of their shop all the way to the end of the row by Salon Citi and Mathnasium. It was embarrassing to say the least!! While I understand your attempt at fundraising and raising awareness, there is no need to occupy the area further out than beyond your shop. The kids at Mathnasium were being distracted constantly and instructors had to keep them in check. There's a time and place for everything geez! read more

I went as a walk-in to the store and Allison immediately started to help me. I went to get a bra fitting and she was extremely helpful in giving me options and making sure I was happy and comfortable!! Definitely recommend going read more

There is something for everyone here! Belle mode seriously has everything a girl could ever ask for, and then some! From a large selection of bras, undies, matching pany-bra sets, sexy night gowns, fluffy robes, silky robes, shape ware, thigh highs (the hottest I've ever seen- ordered straight from Italy), corsets, lotions, slippers, to the very softest most cozy pajamas i've ever touched in my life! I mean, I want to live in those cotton bamboo pj's. You know the ones that are in the front when you walk into the store- right now? Those ones! I need them! I can't stop thinking about them! I'll be back tomorrow to buy them.... Are you getting my obsession with this place yet? Love-Love-Love! read more

Still reeling from finding out my actual bra size (versus what I have in my underwear drawer) but enjoying having a few bras that actually fit. Went to work yesterday and was asked if I'd lost weight. Truth be told, I'm just wearing a bra that fits for once. Makes all the difference in the world. Well worth the investment. Jannette assisted me. She was amazing! She knows what she's doing. I plan to be a return customer. No more Victoria's Secret for me. I'm convinced. Thank you Jannette!! read more

I can't not rave about this place more. I have hated bras my whole life because they never fit. I'm a plus sIze lady and let me tell you what.....getting fitted and actually finding a bra here was amazing. Not only did I buy one bra I bought several and have been back to get more. I actually have pretty bras for the first time in my life, not just black or white. I also found an amazing Strapless bra for my formal wear and shape wear that's comfortable. I love How comfortable to staff made me and the owner even called me when an order came in to let me know it had arrived. I won't buy my bras anywhere else ever again! Love the selection and can't wait to go back! read more

This intimate apparel boutique takes the guessing out of bra buying! Found this place looking for nursing bras and have been absolutely blown away by their service! Employees are extremely knowledgeable and have helped me find bras that fit well and comfortably for my unique needs and body type. Prices are competitive considering the quality of the products and the personalized service you receive while shopping. I will hands down be shopping here for intimates in the future! read more

Absolutely amazing place! Did a fitting and learned that I've been wearing the wrong size for years! Bought 2 bras and will be back for more! So glad I found this place! read more

Monique was fantastic. We couldn't have had a better experience, my sister in law and I visited just before her wedding to get shape wear for the big day. Suggestions and alternatives were provided, and no one tried to sell me something I didn't need. I opted for a brand that was just as effective as Spanx but half the cost at the employees suggestion and am very happy with the whole experience. The store is full of lingerie, shape wear, swim cover ups, loungewear and tees. The tees will have me coming back for another visit because they're just so funny!! read more

I really like this shop. The first time I went, I had a voucher that gave me a bit of a discount so I stopped by when I was out that way (far from me) to see if it would be worth my while to come back. They have a great selection of robes, camis, bras, panties, slippers, sleep masks, etc. They also will order anything, both sizes of what they have in stock or bras that they do not stock, which I like because there are specific bras I go to for everyday wear and I won't deviate from them until they're discontinued! I've been back a few times and have ordered a few items that I went out to pick up. They even got me to try on a chemise that I wasn't expecting to look remotely good (30G here) without a bra, but they were pretty good. It's nice to have sleepwear that isn't just a t-shirt or a full on bra. They also started stocking my favorite bra, which is awesome! I didn't notice a tobacco smell from next door like one reviewer mentioned. They will order things and ship them to you for free (or that's what they told me last time I was there, policies like that change), which is fabulous. Overall, the more I have shopped here the more I've been impressed with how knowledgeable they are about lingerie, both fit and style, and the industry as a whole. read more

Nicole is always helpful in making sure you find what you are looking for. She is a small business owner trying to survive a pandemic like the rest of us. Her products are quality clothing that is not at a discount price. I am a repeat customer. read more

I work across the street and it was my first time going yesterday! I walked in and I was so surprised. It was a lot better than I expected. Nicole is amazing, she helped me find bras that actually fit me and are comfortable! I walked in and walked out with two bras and I'm so satisfied. I'll 100% be back. read more

As some reviewers have mentioned, this place is a Lifesaver! They were very friendly and helped me find my better-fit measurements. I felt encouraged to try different bra styles, designs and brands and was surprised to find new favorites! There were couple bras that I wouldn't have found in other chain stores. Would definitely come back to look for more! read more

I can't say enough great things about this place! Stumbled upon it (through reading reviews, naturally) while looking for a place to get fitted after my breast augmentation/lift surgery. I scheduled a "fit party" with 7 of my girlfriends, packed up the champagne, and went in on a Sunday morning! So. much. fun. Nicole and Sam were AMAZING! Everyone discovered how much Victoria's Secret sucks and how getting a proper fitting and some new lingerie can make you feel like a million bucks. I bought an entire new wardrobe of bras/lingerie and can't wait to go back for more. The store is beautiful, comfy, has a great selection, and the staff is personable and most of all, knowledgeable. Definitely check this place out before you go back to V.S.!! read more

After all of the hype, I visited the store to attempt to purchase items for my wedding night and honeymoon and their selection was a joke. In general, I was not impressed with the store at all. I'm only giving 2 stars because the employee on staff that day was very knowledgeable, helpful, and very sweet. However, I won't be returning to the store as it was a waste of time. read more

This is a great store! I need special fittings for intimate wear and they really know what they're doing! The store owner is very knowledgeable and so is anyone who is working there! I have been going here for over five years...You will not be disappointed!! read more

Seriously love this place so much. They were SO incredibly helpful, patient, and listened to my needs. I had no idea what size I truly was, and they fitted me with the perfect bra--it changed my life. I wear a bigger size, and never can find anything "cute" or "pretty." Generally just solid colors--but here they have so many options from simple to sexy and everything in between. Never going to another store--this is all I need! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!! Not only is it great to support a small woman-owned business, they sell an incredible range of sizes that you just can't get at department stores or Victoria's Secret. The owner does a fantastic job of making you comfortable and even does specialty appointments for mastectomy bras. read more

If you're anything like me, you hate bra shopping. Before I left home to go to Belle Mode Intimates, I told my husband I'd rather be getting a root canal, and I meant it. I haven't been properly fitted for a bra since before my children were born, so this evil necessity was way overdue. I had heard good things about Belle Mode from my local Moms Facebook group so I had high hopes, but still didn't want to go. Well, all that worry and anxiety was for absolutely nothing. Within seconds of my arrival I was whisked to a lovely fitting area and measured with no fuss or embarrassment at all. And within another few seconds I was trying on one of only two bras. Why only two? Because the first one was almost perfect, except we needed to go up one more band size, and the second one was "the one," the bra I've been waiting for all my life. It wasn't binding or itching or pinching or uncomfortable, it was just what I needed and I was so thrilled. Honestly, I wasn't even in the store for 20 minutes before I walked out with a brand new bra and a whole bunch of self-esteem. After wearing what I knew was the wrong bra size and style for years but not really caring, I realize I should have done this years ago. I felt light as a feather, with the weight of the worry of finding the perfect bra off my shoulders-literally and figuratively. All the work was done for me and I was so happy leaving the store that I found myself petting dogs and waving at small children. Everything was handled so easily and so professionally, with a great deal of friendliness. It honestly felt like I was bra-shopping with a good friend who happens to know everything about bras. I will definitely be back, and I would recommend this store to anyone and everyone. Check them out, you won't be sorry. read more

This place is awesome. I have pretty big boobs and finding a bra has always been a sad, money sucking chore. But the two times I've come here, I have never felt like that. The ladies are kind, helpful and are relatable. The bras I've gotten from here are amazing, expensive but totally worth it. The employees listen to how you're feeling and help you find exactly what you are looking for. Plus if you can't find it, they will order for you!! Such a great place. read more

I ordered online a few months ago and it took a while to get my shipment, but the customer service team was very kind and prompt about keeping me updated, despite the inevitable delays from COVID. I loved what I ordered and look forward to buying from them again! read more

This place came highly recommended by some mom friends so I went to check it out today. I was hoping for knowledgeable help with measuring and finding bras that fit well and are supportive. While the store definitely has a nice selection of brands and styles, the young woman at the counter was woefully unqualified or untalented as a sales consultant. She barely said hello or acknowledged my presence ("Welcome! I'll be with you shortly" would have been nice!) or offered any assistance. She measured me and started bringing me bras to try on but it felt like she had very little knowledge about their product. Nor any guidance or suggestions which brand/s might work well for me etc. I'm very disappointed. If you are going to charge prices like a specialty store, you should also provide a superb consult, in my opinion. The owner Nicole is supposed to be great but unfortunately she wasn't there. Please train your employees or you'll be loosing more customers. (How can she just say: "We don't have that in your size" - without offering to order it? That makes zero business sense). Also, your bathroom was a real turnoff, I would have been embarrassed to let any customers use it. read more

so, I thought I was a B-cup and it turns out I'm a D-cup. I didn't realize how crucial it was to have a professional bra fitting- LIFE CHANGER. I love this place and the owner, Nicole. seriously, I spent 35 years wearing the wrong bra size. Nicole took me in like I was her BFF and helped to get me on the right track. On my first visit I think I purchased 5 new bras. She has a big selection of sexy/practical at the same time bras. Also, I've purchased a cute bathing suit and leggings with Belle Mode Now, I look so much better in my clothes! Its amazing what the right bras will do for your overall look. EXCELLENT PLACE. read more

Let me tell you something, ladies (and gentlemen). This place and its owner/staff has changed my life. This is no exaggeration. When I went here, I was looking for a cute, comfortable, silky summer robe. Fast forward to three hours later and I was walking out with 2 giant shopping bags, filled to the brim. Here's why. My entire life, I've been wearing the wrong bra size. I didn't know that until this day. I had been fitted at VS (which is basically the Target of bra shopping), Nordstrom and various other boutiques. 36C is what I was told by *everyone*. WRONG. When I walked in, the owner, Nicole, said "oh, you're a 34D, right?" like she had on x ray goggles. A 34D... what?! Me? A 34? D? No. I didn't believe her. It turns out, she was right! She said to just humor her and try some bras on, because I told her I'd show her she was wrong. I told her I was looking for a nude bra with at least a teeny bit of sex appeal to it. She brought me 2 or 3 bras. I tried them on and was completely blown away. Not only did they fit, but it was basically like my boobs were screaming "THANK YOU, oh my god, THANK YOU" after years of stuffing them into the wrong size bra. Not only that, but the lounge wear and robe selections are unbeatable. Cute, sexy, comfy, whatever you want, this place has it. Once you admit to yourself just how often you come home, rip off your work clothes and stuff yourself into a pair of sweats and a tank or t-shirt, this place will become a comfy clothing gamechanger. I never thought spending any money on something I can just steal out of my boyfriend's drawer was worth it - but it's so much better than what you're used to and makes a huge difference in your at-home comfort level. I have now complete re-vamped my bra and underwear collection and own 4 robes from here (one sexy/silk, one silky/comfy, one warm and winter-y but still adorable, and one comfy cotton for summer). I have also tossed all my old sweats for new sleepwear shorts, all types of pj's and actually bought some lingerie that makes MY curvy body type look and feel so incredibly sexy that I didn't even think it was achievable. And last, but definitely not least, this place is completely affordable if you are used to shopping at VS type prices, and it's infinitely better. The service is personalized, the owner knows her products inside and out, so when you go in there you can say "I need a bra for _____ event's dress" and she'll find you 10 options if you want them so that you will definitely leave with something you love. The biggest lesson that I've learned from shopping here is that when you start your base layer of clothing with something that you feel amazing and comfortable in, it will change how you look at yourself in the mirror, how you carry yourself, and drastically increase your overall daily happiness. I'm not even exaggerating, ladies. I'm 32 years old, overweight and very curvy, but I feel like freakin' Tyra Banks strutting my stuff down a catwalk when I put on my bras and underwear from here. I have brought 4-5 friends here (INSISTED) since then, and am actually bringing another today and they have all left equally as satisfied as I was and continue to be with this store. Go. You will regret nothing. Seriously. Your body and mind will thank you. read more

Poor service and most likely won't return. Visited this quaint little shop in Fairfax yesterday afternoon after having dinner at Ozzie's with my boyfriend. The one sole worker did not offer any greeting nor did she ask if we needed assistance...even as we toured the entire store. If you want me to pay $240 for a robe or $60 for panties, is it too much to ask for at least a hello? Needless to say we walked out and won't be returning. The selection of undergarments was very nice but at those prices, I can go elsewhere and get more personalized service. read more

Belle Mode is only worth visiting if you need to be sized. Otherwise, the inventory, pricing and service leave much to be desired. I found several styles that I liked, but when I looked for them in my size, there were none in inventory. I asked if they could order the pieces I liked, but the staff explained they could not based on how the designer (Marlies Dekkers) operates. I found the very bra I asked about on the Marlies Dekkers website in my size. Considering the inventory issues, lackluster service, and pricing at MSRP, I recommend shopping elsewhere unless you have never been fitted for a bra. Even then, there are probably better places to get fitted. The staff was flustered and seemed confused by my questions. read more

First: This place smelled like the tobacco store next door. I could barely breathe the entire time I was in here. Belle Mode needs to do something to fix that smell from seeping into their store! I was disappointed in both the selection and service of this store, especially compared to Trousseau in Vienna. They did not have much in my size at all, including only one strapless bra in stock... and my size is not that strange at all. The saleswoman wasn't very helpful. I actually seemed to know more than her about how my bra should fit. While this store is probably a godsend for anybody just discovering the horrors of how Victoria's Secret really fits most women, I would recommend driving an extra 10-15 minutes for both the service and better selection. One thing I do like about this store is that they have a sale section! Trousseau never puts anything on sale, so I will definitely stop by every now and then just to check the sales. read more

While the owner was super friendly I did start to feel pressured. I was the only Person in the place on a weekday afternoon. She was helpful in her eagerness to help me find the right sizing for items that were cut differently. While I am no stranger to splurging on last minute items I was thrown off when my 3 items totaling over $400 were shoved into a plastic bag. read more
