Custom Bras
Custom built bras.
Do you struggle to find a bra that fits? Do the bra calculators put you in a size that the mainstream shops don't stock?
Do you have asymmetry that makes fitting ready to wear bras awkward?Most of us are asymmetrical to a greater or lesser degree.
A Bra that Fits and Boob or Bust are two sites that offer a way to calculate your ready to wear size.
I'm offering a custom made bra service.Four body measurements and your wire shape/size and I will draft a bra for you.from a 1940s/50s bullet bra (this one inspired by an original)
front fastening if that's what you need/want
or a even transitions stays, dating to the beginning of the 19th century, short stays with cups.
All these bras have been drafted using Bare Essentials 3rd Edition.I will draft using your measurements and make a toile for a first fitting. Any changes that are needed will be transferred to the draft, and a second toile will be made.
Once I have the right volume, we can discuss style, colour, lace etc, I will create a pattern unique to you and make a toile to ensure that the pattern lines, fit and support is right for you. Then I will make your final bra.
