Welcome to Belle Mode · Est. 2012
We love helping you find your favorites.
Nicole opened Belle Mode in 2012, following a family tradition that began at our sister store, Bertha Church, in Burlington, Vermont. Today, our Fairfax boutique brings that personal approach to women throughout Northern Virginia.
We get to know what you need, bring options to your fitting room, and help you compare how they feel. From everyday bras and beautiful lingerie to swimwear and thoughtful support after breast surgery, we help you find what feels right.
There is room here for your questions, your preferences, and the body you have today.

Discover the experienceDid you know?
Women wearing the wrong bra size have been reported at rates above 80%, according to the University of Portsmouth’s breast-health research group.
Reported research estimates vary; this is not a Belle Mode customer survey. Read the research ↗We carry 160 bra sizes across our collections. A familiar size on the label is only the starting point; the style and the way it fits matter, too.
Belle Mode’s assortment spans 28AA–50K; not every style comes in every size.Look at the band, cups, underwire, center front, and straps. Portsmouth’s researchers recommend assessing the whole fit rather than relying on a tape measure alone.
University of Portsmouth fitting research ↗Belle Mode has been helping Northern Virginia find a more comfortable fit for over a decade. A personal fitting remains at the heart of what we do.
Locally owned. Individual attention. A boutique you can come back to.
More than a fitting room
Our work includes supporting women after breast cancer, helping girls feel prepared for their first bras, and making space for conversations that are often hard to begin.
Through Bras for Hope and the relationships we build in the boutique, that care reaches beyond a single visit.
Explore Bras for Hope ↗Kind words from our customers
"I was in depseperate need of new bras, but hate clothes shopping especially bras, because I am not confident in my body. The employee that helped me was so kind, encouraging, helpful and gave gentle but honest answers. She listened to what I wanted, suggested things that met that while offering her own suggestion on what would wok well for my shape and offering things outside my comfort zone. I bought a 2-piece (and have worn it with joy) because she gave me the confidence. The people at this store are amazing!"
"My daughters and I went to this shop and we all had a great experience with Aly. She was attentive but didn’t hover and had to address different issues with all three of us. I am a post bilateral mastectomy woman who chose to go flat and haven’t been able to find a bra that wouldn’t ride up and she found a fitted shaping cami that works great with my knitted knockers to make me look and feel more feminine. The girls have each lost more than 60# and she was super encouraging to them. We will all be back and I will spread the word. Long drive but worth it."
"Hands down, the best place for bras for miles. They actually know how to properly size people and they know how these bras fit different shapes. While I’ve gone here before in their old location, I finally had the chance to bring my 17-year old daughter to their new location for her first experience with them. She left with multiple items that she absolutely loves. She feels pretty and like they actually, for the first time, fit her right. We will never stop coming here. Even if we move away, which we are considering, we will be back to visit and will make this a stop every time!!!"
"I desperately needed fitting/resizing and visited Belle Mode on a bit of a whim, on a rare day off from work. Over around 25-30 minutes, I was presented with about 12 different options based on my preferences and comfort. Never was there any pressure or hurry. I ultimately chose 3 styles to give myself some variation. I was so happy with my new size that I gave my fitting specialist a hug(!), and asked to wear one for the drive back home. Have already told my out-of-state mom that next time she visits, I’m taking her here. I will also tell all my other local mom friends! Glad to have this small business close to home!"
"Oh my goodness, this was an absolutely incredible experience! Never in my life had I had any sort of bra fitting experience, and I was not sure what to expect! Nicole was so professional, kind, and such a wealth of information! Everything she brought to me, I absolutely loved. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and that I understood about different styles and sizing. She took the time to ask me about my preferences, and what I was used to, while recommending what she thought I would also love—the was right! I was also impressed with how she helped me choose a diverse assortment which would suit all of my needs. I cannot wait to go back, and buy more! Thank you to Nicole and company! You all are truly the best! "
"Absolutely incredible, kind, and knowledgeable team! Aly spent over an hour with me to my first visit and was very helpful! Highly recommend! Update: Absolutely the best team ever! Nicole, the owner, worked with me over four time, coming in early to accommodate my schedule, ordering multiple sizes to ensure the bra fit in all aspects, giving advice with her incredible expertise, and calling me personally to help me find multiple bras for different uses that all fit perfectly! 1000/5 stars!"
