My Story, My Dream



I should have known in high school when I was the only girl during drill team practice to wear a sports bra that I was going to be a boob girl. I recall in college I had Brassieres that fit well, but were matronly in appearance and didn't quite match the image of myself as a cute new sorority pledge. As a young single woman living in Dallas in the mid 90's, my hobby became acquiring luxury lingerie at the likes of Neiman Marcus and exclusive boutiques around the world. I had disposable income and easy to fit 34Ds. My eyes were opened to the fact that one could have a correctly fitting underpinning that was also aesthetically inspiring. I became a bra aficionado.

I married and had a family, which affected both the pert D bustlilne and disposable income. Hint: the bustline grew and the money for bras shrank. These changes lead me to start researching brands, body types, breast shapes, etc., and increased my knowledge and skill. Shopping with family and friends and fitting them in bras, I began giving consultations and evaluations to friends' friends as they were referred to me. My flair became evident, my passion developed. I was offered positions in both the retail and the trade sectors of the lingerie industry, but chose to stay home with our growing family.

As a child my Mom, like many other moms, made not only our Halloween costu
mes, but also matching outfits for my sister and I. By middle school she had me sketching my ideas and in fact wouldn't discuss a new design unless I had drawn it first. In high school she taught me the skills of construction, utilizing darts & seams to fit the bust and flatter the waist; she and I collaborated to create pieces together. Even as a post-graduate we worked together when I couldn't find a flattering garment to wear. Mom was never a fan of tent dressing - big baggy clothes always added pounds to one's look in her book. Fast forward ten years, and I hired dressmakers and tailors to make woven shirts cut specifically for my body that I felt great wearing.

The birth of Bratique Helene followed upon the heels of the death of my Mom, Helene. I hope women benefit from the dream; I encourage you to embrace your endowment!!
