One out of every eight women has been diagnosed with breast cancer for a lifetime.
That\'s why lingerie, swimwear and fashion companies have to keep up with the needs of women who have had surgery.
That\'s why the US-based company, Athleta, has developed a bra specifically designed for women with chest surgery, which is such a good news.
It is called Empower Bra, which is launched this fall.
The bra has a zipper.
The front is closed and made of materials specially designed for sensitive scar tissue.
It also has special pockets that can inflate and adjust to make room for the later stages
Surgical implants (
If a woman wants to wear it)
And removable straps so you can change the fit.
Sheila Shekar, senior director of brand marketing at Athleta, issued a statement covering Wellandgood. com.
She said: \"Women told us that they have been using athlete bras as a post-
Breast resection sports bra, but they can\'t find the really perfect choice in the market.
We began to realize that it wasserved need.
Empower bras are available from September 25 and retail for $54.
12% of the proceeds will be donated to the Water Club in Chicago
Breast cancer survivors Rowing Club.
Athlete a also created a second bra, which was not designed for the latter woman
But I want to support that.
12% of her bra\'s electricity revenue will also be used for water recovery.
