One of the most difficult challenges for any bra fitter is helping a bride find the right foundation to wear under her wedding dress. Especially if she chooses a gown that is low-cut or backless, and she has heavy or less full breasts. After all, it’s important to feel confident on your big day, and you can’t…
The word “empowering” is often overused when it comes to lingerie fashions. But in the case of God Save Queens, I think it might be right on target. It somehow combines the frilly aspects of beautiful laces with practical design, all in a sophisticated package. If you’re not familiar with this new indie brand, you’ll…
I love discovering new lingerie brands, but it’s a rare treat to see one launch that’s genuinely offering something different. Edge o’ Beyond was one such label when it debuted in 2014. Named after the founder’s first home, this is luxury lingerie with a unique twist. Almost every piece features small rings on which to…
Today I’m introducing readers to ColieCo Lingerie, a relatively new indie lingerie brand. What’s different about them is their commitment to eco-friendly, ethically manufactured pieces that are made to last. Unlike many larger brands, they aren’t looking to have you replace your bras and knickers every season (although you might want to shop their styles…
Nubian Skin made waves across the lingerie world when it launched in 2014. It triggered an industry-wide interest in intimates for people of color, previously a woefully underserved market. Brands have of course always made the odd brown bra here and there. But rarely were they marketed as a ‘nude’ option or photographed on models…
Today we’re featuring indie lingerie brand, Ellesmere Lingerie. Only a few years old, this Canadian label is quickly making a name for itself. Why is that? First, the styles (whether a simple everyday black bra or delicate lace and matching garter set) are drop-dead gorgeous. Second, they offer bras and bralettes to fit a broad range…
Every once in a while, the lingerie industry takes me by surprise. That was the case with my introduction to EVA Dessous. To be honest, I had no idea that they carried swimwear, much less sporty and casual loungewear styles. It wasn’t until they gifted me a set of lingerie that I got to take…
April 7th is National Handmade Day. It’s a day to celebrate and recognize all the unique talent out there in the world. What better time to treat yourself to some handmade lingerie? Handmade lingerie is often far more exciting and unique than anything you’ll find in a department store. But it’s not just about fashion—it’s the…
If you’re a regular reader, you know how much I love Yellowberry’s tween and teen bras. The brand started out as the dream of then 19-year-old Megan Grassell. She wanted to buy her younger sister more age-appropriate bra styles. I’m not sure about you, but I can’t imagine taking on such a project at her age….
I can’t think of a better way to celebrate International Women’s Day than with a list of women-run brands from our Better Know a Brand blog series. Reading about these accomplished individuals inspires me to continue working on fulfilling my goals and dreams. The women below hail from all parts of the world and work in…
Until she wrote a book on the subject, Elisabeth Dale didn’t know much about her breasts. She created this site so that readers can find the best products, clothing and surgical options—anything and everything related to bras, breast health, and well-being.
