There’s a kind of suffering that goes unseen and unserved by the mainstream fashion industry.
For fuller-busted women, especially as we age, so much of this happens invisibly:
the discouragement
the physical pain
the conditions made worse
the bras and shapewear
that we are trained to accept.
Underneath it all is the psychological weight of managing this throughout the whole arc of our life journey.
I built Embrago because I want you to know:
Somebody IS thinking of you.
Fighting for you.
Designing for you.
This clip is from my conversation on the How Fitting® Podcast podcast with Alison -Freelance Patternmaker where we discuss engineering a garment for a feeling, and why I made it my personal mission to provide a better option for fuller busts, midsize, plus size, and changing bodies.
Hugs of Support,
