Our take
Many women know the discomfort of an ill-fitting bra, or the awkwardness of a bra-measuring session. To help with this, lingerie brand Thirdlove is doing things differently - by snubbing traditional sizing.
Thirdlove instead offers more than 80 bra sizes, including half-cups, to cater for women of any size or shape. In addition to building the brand to an impressive valuation, Thirdlove is on a social mission and has donated millions of dollars worth of bras to multiple charitable organizations.
The company remains a challenger to established apparel brands such as Victoria’s Secret, while also facing competition from other industry challengers including True&Co, Brayola and Lively. A move to sell a portion of its range through Amazon's marketplace should bring in additional customers for the brand and give it a boost in this competitive market.
