A Few Words From Our Founder
"Working in the lingerie and swimwear industry for over 11 years, I've learnt a lot about bra fittings and women's body shapes. Let me tell you, there is no perfect body shape, we need to be able to love what we have and embrace it.
It's important to invest in great fitting lingerie and swimwear that is supportive, comfortable and feminine. It makes a huge difference to your overall silhouette and body shape, as well as your self-confidence.
Remember, don't be afraid to add some colour and lace in your lingerie drawer.
It all starts with what's underneath."
