Ok So What’s The Big Deal About Polish Bras?
So recently one of the biggest trends in lingerie has been Polish made bras. What’s the big deal about polish made bras? Well in Poland the lingerie industry is very different than the bra market in the way we see it today. Lingerie in Poland is built on a significantly more custom basis because women in Poland tend to have smaller ribs and larger breasts so each bra requires a lot of custom engineering.
This is especially exciting to women who feel that they have been let down by the commercial bra industry. The commercial bra industry tends to cater pretty well to a decently small range of sizes, but if you fall outside of that range you may be able to find a bra that fits you but it can be borderline impossible at times and even harder to find a pretty bra that fits. Its frustrating to many women because who decided that this range of size is ‘normal’ when they don’t fit it. So custom made Polish bras have been on the rise. Some smaller boutiques have started carrying Polish bras (like Ewa Bien at La Petite Coquette in NYC) but there are some websites that are devoted to delivering custom polish bras right to your door. (take a look at wellfitting) Don’t get me wrong, I love my Natori as much as the next 32D, but there’s a huge group of women who are being let down by the commercial size run so I’m all for this new surge in custom bras!
I actually picked up a fabulous Ewa Bien set when I was in New York and I’ll be talking about that soon!
