TOO TIGHT? MIGHT BE JUST RIGHT!
LETTER FROM CX
Hello EB family!
Loulou from Customer Experience here with some more EB facts, tips and tricks.
The way we show up for bra wearers is by collecting as much feedback as we can by testing our bras on different bodies in each size. Yes, we fit each size several times over! Every feature in an Evelyn & Bobbie bra is carefully thought out, discussed, wear-tested and backed by data.
The Evelyn & Bobbie journey to innovate starts with physiology. Evelyn & Bobbie’s do-no-harm ethos removes the physical triggers that come with traditional underwire bras. Conventional bras often have added elastic sewn along the top of the underarm and along the bottom edge of the bra. The sharp edges will often settle into the grooves of the ribcage, making indentations in the skin. Evelyn & Bobbie bras are like a second skin around the body, helping smooth the back and minimize digging into the ribcage. Our straps stay off the traps! The trapezius muscle extends across the shoulder and down the back. In addition to helping move the head, shoulders and torso, the trapezius muscle stabilizes the spine and helps posture. By setting the Evelyn & Bobbie bra straps wider and off the neck muscle, we can stand tall and lead from the heart.
Did you know only 12% of US patents are granted to women? Our founder, Bree McKeen, has 6 of them! EB CORE(™) is one of our patents; it is a seamless lamination design that lifts three-dimensionally. EB CORE makes support possible without a painful wire. Take a look inside our bra and see the EB difference. Put on our bra and feel the EB difference.
Every Evelyn & Bobbie bra is designed to be comfortable, supportive and especially optimized for D-K cups. Cups are always removable to customize your level of modesty. The fabric is moisture wicking and has antimicrobial protection without the use of latex, copper, or silver ions. Our antimicrobial agent is called Microban, which is Oeko-Tex standard 100 certified and used by every major athletic-wear company in the U.S. (Nike, Adidas, Underarmour, Lululemon etc.) After 1-3 wears, the unique fiber blend and construction helps the bra mold to the body, and not the other way around!
Now, let me walk you through each of our styles, to help you understand each of their unique features and what sets them apart:
3-Day break in period
The Perfect Base Layer
Evelyn & Bobbie bras can require up to three days of wear to mold to your unique shape. That means if you open your package, try on your new bra and think “yikes, this feels too small” - you might actually have your perfect size right there in your hands. You just need to let it do its thing!
We fit 114 traditional bra sizes in 7 easy sizes (XS - 3X) because our technology allows the heat and pressure of your body up to 3 inches of stretch only where you need it. Your bra might feel perfect right out of the package, but a high percentage of customers will need 1-3 days to break it in. After that - your bra will feel totally custom-made for you! Trust the process and give it a few more days - by the third wear, you will be amazed. (Pro tip: Washing your bra can also help soften it!)
How does the break-in period work?
In order for us to fit over 100 traditional bra sizes in just 7 easy sizes, we use a technologically advanced 3D-knit, 4-way stretch fabric that will mold to your body’s unique shape over time. Our bonding is “pixelated” so it allows for breathability and stretching right where you need it – and not where you don’t!Our fabric and bonding layers are fused together and designed to stretch optimally, without losing structural integrity.
Perfect for life's changes
Our bodies and breast size can vary throughout the day, week and month. Evelyn & Bobbie’s 4-way stretch technology allows for flexibility through these real-life fluctuations. Our bras are grounded in the truth that each of us is unique, so we designed them to accommodate asymmetrical shapes, and they can even be used to hold prosthesis. Life is full of changes, let Evelyn & Bobbie be your constant. Wirefree support, always.
Now, here are some handy tips and tricks to make the most of your Evelyn & Bobbie bra:
Tips & tricks for a flawless fit
1. Handling cup spillage
Comfort & Support
Handling cup spillage: If your bra fits well overall but you notice a bit of spillage across the top of the cups, don't fret. Use your fingertips to stretch the cup area. Push against the cup fabric outwards, just inside the bonded edge, to create more space.
2. Step into your bras
Shape & Adjustability
Putting on Evelyn & Bobbie bras can be a breeze if you step into it instead of pulling it over your head. You can do this even with back closure styles! Just put the adjustable back on the setting you prefer, and then slide it up and over your hips. The incredible stretch and recovery of our technical garments is unparalleled. Give it a try – you might be pleasantly surprised at how much easier it is to put on.
3. Trust the process
Plunge & Push-Up
Finding the perfect bra fit might take a bit of faith, but with Evelyn & Bobbie, it's worth the time. Our bras are designed to adapt to your unique shape, ensuring both comfort and support. Embrace any initial snugness, and you'll soon discover a bra that's tailor-made for you. Happy wearing!
The Bobbie Scoop Bra
Thinner Straps + Low Neckline = Fashion Freedom
Standing on the shoulders of the Defy Bra, the Bobbie Scoop offers Defy smoothness and comfort but with thinner straps and low scooped front and back neckline. It is designed to be invisible under various outfits. The Bobbie Scoop launch also includes a new size, XS, which was designed specifically to fit and serve XS customers, rather than just scaling down from larger sizes. Overall, the Bobbie Scoop bra is a great option for those seeking comfort and fashion freedom.
