What makes a good bra?
A bra should support the natural shape of the breast without the wearer noticing it is there. In addition to an optimal fit, a good bra has to have high-quality, soft material, and excellent workmanship.
How do I know what type of bra suits me the best?
It depends on the material and shape. To find out which style fits and suits you best, you really need to try them on. We offer a wide variety of styles and materials to meet different requirements ensuring that every woman can find their favorite bra. Our bras made of natural materials like cotton are particularly popular because they are incredibly comfortable to wear.
Match bra style to bust shape
Not every bra fits every woman, and not every bra style suits or is recommended for every woman. Material, cut and construction can greatly influence the fit.
EVERY WOMAN'S BODY IS UNIQUE, LIKE A FINGERPRINT.
