Lula Lu Introduces AAA Bra

June 28, 2010 by Kelly

Lula Lu, a petite lingerie shop which we’ve discussed a few times on TLP, has plans to introduce an AAA cup bra for those who don’t quite fit into an AA. Ellen Shing, owner of Lula Lu, said:

I have to say, when I first started I was like “Does this size really exist?” The double A is already quite a small size. However, when I started to fit people I realized there was definitely a need for the triple A. I have customers call me, and this is how they describe themselves, “I’m nipples on ribs.”…They don’t have much but they are still women. They want something that fits them and touches their skin. The worst I’ve heard is that they’re too small for their A cup bra so it sits away from their breast. They tell me stories of being at work and bending down to pick something up and their shirt is tucked into their bra. They’re just mortified. They want something that hugs their curves and that they’re confident in.

The first bra that will be released in the new sizes is Desiree, which will be available on July 2. You can pre-order now.

The Little Bra Company Now Has 28 and 30 Band Sizes

November 7, 2008 by Kelly

We hope anyone who made it to The Little Bra Company‘s trunk show in California had a good time! As we told you right before the show, The Little Bra Company is coming out with new band sizes in sizes 28 and 30, after a lot of ladies asked for the more petite sizes. (we called it!) For those unable to make it to the trunk show and talk to TLBC themselves, TLP now as the scoop on the new size ranges!

Emily Lau, founder/owner of TLBC said,

“After I started The Little Bra Company a little over a year ago as a line made especially for petite and smaller-framed women, I met a lot of customers who needed even smaller sizes. Although TLBC’s bras are already designed and cut on a petite scale, customers told me it was near impossible to find a 28 or 30 band size that did not look like a training bra and told me that if they ever found one they liked, they would be willing to pay even more for it!”

Starting with the best-selling Lucia style, the new band sizes are now available in select stores or at TLBC’s website. They are available in the gorgeous new Fall 2008 color combinations of oyster/aqua and peony/tangerine.

TLBC has also included the new sizes in the upcoming Spring/Summer 2009 line, and will eventually add them to the Signature Collection. Like all TLBC bras, these new sizes are designed specifically for a smaller body type, giving a better fit and more natural-looking curve to petite women.

In addition to the official website, you can find TLBC bras at Figleaves US, HerRoom, Journelle, or lingerie boutiques across the US and Canada.

Itty Bitty Bra for Petite Women

September 26, 2008 by Mandolina

IBB Designs proudly announces the arrival of a new bra for the bust challenged women, the Itty Bitty Bra. The line at IBB Designs includes the Signature and Couture Bras, plus Camisoles and Panties in a variety of colors and patterns.

The concept behind itty bitty bra is simple… a line of bras that gives customers the best fit, comfort and selection in smaller sizes. Concentrating on the AA, A & B cups, the itty bitty bra does not gap, pucker or slip! Itty Bitty focusses tackling specific problems of smaller-busted women, and the petite market will surely appreciate this addition to other petite labels such as Lula Lu Petites or Kate Gibson Lingerie.

The Itty Bitty Bra was featured in In Style and Redbook’s August issues as well as the upcoming People Style Watch in October, Shape in November, Health in December and Cosmo Girl early 2009. We obviously want to report too — but don’t have anyone on the team with the right ‘features’. We’ll find a solution — so expect more Itty Bitty on TLP soon! 🙂

A World Record for a Good Cause (and free bikinis!)

August 25, 2008 by Kelly

If you live in or around Essex, this post is for you! MaxCleavage.com has teamed up with Southend Radio 105.1 to host a “Record Busting Bikini Beach Bash” on Jubilee Beach in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. The event will happen Sunday, August 31 at 11 a.m.The record they’re trying to bust is for one photograph with the most number of women in bikinis in one place at any time. The current record was set in 2007 on Bondi Beach with 1,010 women. MaxCleavage.com is asking you to come to Jubilee Beach in your bikini and donate one pound for the Southend University Hospital Breast Unit (an appropriate charity, don’t you think?).

The first fifty women who show up will get a free bikini. Visit the MaxCleavage.com website for more information.
