I recently shared a list of 10 of the best Polish lingerie brands. In it, I talked about why brands from this country typically offer an extensive size range. One much more extensive than we’re used to seeing from brands elsewhere in Europe, or in the US. I’m not just talking about cup sizes either,…
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…
Today I’ve put together a list of the top 12 TBL blog posts of the year. Given that we made a few changes in The Breast Life, it seems appropriate to look back on what our readers found helpful and useful. And if you haven’t read the blog in a while, it’s a great way to catch…
After a mastectomy, even if you have breast reconstruction, your bra needs will likely be very different from what you wore before your surgery. Wearing a bra after breast reconstruction is optional, whether you have new breasts made with implants, your own tissue, or both; your new “girls” will likely be higher and firmer than…

A new intimate apparel niche has a specific purpose: to make you feel your best and speed up healing as quickly as possible. And it’s not just about healing after breast cancer procedures, either. Many women are shocked by the…
What are the reasons why bras don’t fit? According to some bra fitters, “85% of women are in the wrong size bra.” But that statistic is just a myth and fails to take into account that not all bras are sized or made the same way. So it’s not about finding the one, right size. Most…
Today’s post is for those readers who want to know more about my new book. I’m pairing this Bra Zone book excerpt with a small selection of recommended bras from our store. As you’ll see, bra buying isn’t always easy, even when there are many brands and styles available. This brief introduction to The Bra Zone:…
A few weeks ago, we published a lingerie review about a Royce Lingerie post-mastectomy bra. Today, we’re highlighting the non-surgical styles available from this UK intimates brand. Wireless bras are Royce Lingerie’s specialty. That’s all they do. Bras that support without wires are not just for women who’ve had breast surgery. Many pregnant and nursing mothers…
On the heels of International Women’s Day and #DayWithoutAWoman, I want to give a shout out to the much-maligned bra. Contrary to popular belief, women in the United States didn’t burn their bras at any public protest or demonstration. We’ve come a long way since the invention of the first modern bra, too. Back in those days, we…
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.
