After Multiple Breast Surgeries, I Found The Only Bra I'll Ever Wear

Johana, a real Evelyn & Bobbie customer, on recovery, values, and the bra that changed everything.

After multiple breast surgeries, my relationship with bras got complicated. What had once been an afterthought became one of the most consequential decisions I made every morning. The wrong one could mean hours of pain. The right one could mean getting through the day.

I tried a lot of bras. I'll leave it at that.

The search that wouldn’t end.


What I needed wasn't complicated, but it turned out to be surprisingly hard to find. I needed something that would support me without hurting me. No underwires digging in. No pinching, no bruising, no pain that didn't need to be there. I wanted a bra built for a real body going through a real thing.

When I tried on an Evelyn & Bobbie bra for the first time, I knew I had found it.

What I found.


The EB Core technology offers full support throughout the day. Not the compressing, squeezing kind. The kind that lifts and adapts. The fabric is so soft, it shapes to your body instead of forcing your body to conform to it. The wide band gives my back the support and comfort I hadn't even known to ask for.

No wires. No pinching. No bruising. No more pain.

Those four sentences might sound simple. After everything I had been through, they meant everything.

A brand worth believing in.


Finding a bra that worked was part of it. Finding a company I believed in was the other part. I'm not willing to spend money on a brand that doesn't have my best interest at heart or reflect my values. I've learned, especially since my surgeries, that what you put closest to your body matters. It should be made with care, by people who give one.

I recently had the chance to meet Bree, the CEO and founder of Evelyn & Bobbie. Her passion for what she's building, and why, is truly contagious. She believes in what her team is creating, and how it can really help make women’s lives better.

What I know now.


This is my brand for life. I know that the way you know something when it stops being a search and starts being an answer.

If you're still looking for comfort, for real support, for a company that means what it says, do your boobs and your wallet a favor. Try an Evelyn & Bobbie bra. Your body will thank you.
