Bridget is a non-wired bra. Its pattern involves the use of dense, stable natural fabrics (linen, cotton).

The bra has double-layer cups and straps; the back is single-layered.

There is no hook and eye closure at the back. The bra has a lace-up closure at the front.

The plastic bones are inserted along the side seams and in the center of the front.

Wide straps made of fabric are also very comfortable and do not dig into the skin. Shoulder straps are sewn to the elastic band for regulation at the back.

This bra is suitable for all sizes, including plus size.

All my bras sewn on conventional sewing machine with the function of a zig-zag.

Please read carefully before purchasing to determine the size of the sewing pattern correctly.

I do not use a conventional measurement system. The main measure that I use is the horizontal arc (HD), in centimeters (see the picture). Simply put, you need to take this measurement between the ends of the underwire through the protruding point of the chest, horizontally. The dimensions of my sewing patterns are according to this measurement (if your measurement of HD is 23 cm, then you need size 23). This enables an individual approach to the creation of patterns. In the usual way, the pattern is created according to the difference between two dimensions (bust and under bust girth), but within this framework a wide variety of shapes and sizes is possible.

Another important measure is the girth under the bust. This measurement is indicated in the pattern name. There is a file on how to adjust the pattern in accordance with your girth under the bust.

 I use a system of individual measurements to create a personalized pattern because each person’s figure is unique. You can buy ready-made patterns according to the size described above (please note that measurements are in centimeters).

If you have not found the right size or you have some body features that require an individual approach, I can make personal patterns for you according to individual measurements.
