3 Local Bra Brands That Cater To Breast Cancer Survivors

After battling breast cancer, your needs in a bra might change. These three local bra brands have come to help

October 30, 2022

Perk by Kate

Buying lingerie is generally, a very personal experience. And if you’re a breast cancer patient or survivor, this is made even more specific as there are specific needs you’ll want from a bra post-treatment. New issues like, lack of support, weight fluctuations or skin sensitivity can make it hard to go back to your old bras. Fortunately, a few local lingerie brands have come to the rescue.

Whether you’ve undergone a lumpectomy to remove a lump, a mastectomy (the removal of one or both breasts, partially or completely), reconstructive surgery, or your skin is feeling particularly sensitive due to radiation or chemotherapy, there are still plenty of bra options dedicated to the needs of those fighting breast cancer.

3 Local Bra Brands That Cater To Breast Cancer Survivors
Perk by Kate
custom

Launched in 2021, Perk By Kate’s Recovery collection was created to support women through their recovery process following a mastectomy or breast reconstruction surgery. The collection was done in consultation with a breast reconstruction surgeon, as well as feedback from customers who are breast cancer survivors.

There are five bras in the collection with different elements, such as a front-hook mechanism for ease of wear, moisture-wicking materials like cotton and microfibre for cooling effect, and thicker straps and wider side panels for support – all without compromising on being beautifully-designed intimates.

Also in the collection is a lightweight pyjama set designed with maximum comfort in mind. The super-soft jersey fabric keeps one from feeling too warm and feels like second skin without irritating any areas that are still healing.

Local lingerie brand EnvyHer is known for their shapewear and lingerie for nursing and postpartum mothers, but their pieces are also extremely comfortable and suitable for those recovering post-surgery or post-chemotherapy.

The bralettes, made in Singapore by hand, are without wire and feature super soft nylon and spandex lining fabric. You can even tailor-make a custom bra (and underwear) set, if you’re unable to find one that suits your preferences.

The brand offers a range of mastectomy bras, each designed with soft fabric and hidden pockets in the bra cups. There are various styles for almost every need, whether you’re looking for a comfortable front-hook piece made of breathable material for all-day comfort, or a supportive bra with a high neckline for added coverage.
