Next week I depart to Paris for the 2018 Salon de Lingerie and Interfiliere expositions. About this time each year, I begin questioning the process. Is going necessary?

I recently had a very insightful discussion with Ipomia Lingerie founder Cecilia Kadar. Cecilia shares how she discovered the need in the market for bras specifically developed for augmented breasts, and gathered the team of specialists to start Ipomia. She focuses on the post surgery styles being beautifully designed and supportive. What I love about Ipomia is its a “one stop shop” for post breast augmentation care … Read More
