Why a bra really can change your life

By Louise Nahas

One of life’s most infuriating ironies is that though society sexualises the curves of a woman’s body, when it comes to fashion, you’d think they’re selling to benches. From gaping jeans, to shirts that won’t button up, to bras that just don’t fit. It’s over 100 years since the bra was invented, and we are still struggling to find one that offers support and comfort.

For those with a fuller bust, a bra affects almost everything: how you move, how your clothes sit, and how you feel in your own body.
