Let customers speak for us
Winner - Fashion Impact 2020
Absolutely thrilled to have received the highest accolade in this prestigious international design award.
The Good Design Awards Jury praised The Very Good Bra, commenting:
“This entry demonstrates strong commitment in ensuring all aspects of the product are full compostable, with zero waste, to create differentiation in their market segment. This is a crucial element for products that can shift the dial on the end-of-life environmental impact, and it is commendable that this is in the lingerie category, which has the opportunity for significant positive impact. The design is appealing and is presented in a manner well suited to their target market. Well done. ”
Why so Very Good?
We believe that everything we create should be designed with its end of life in mind. We are unique in that even our elastic, labels, sewing thread and packaging is compostable. Our bras contain no spandex, and every component has its origin in the earth, to which we hope it will in time harmlessly return, rather than add to our landfill burden.
It's also good because it fits and supports comfortably across 27 sizes, with no underwire. We find that once our customers leave the wire, they rarely go back!
Things we care about

Landfill
Australians send 85% of textiles to landfill, two thirds of which are man made synthetic fibres like Polyester which take 200 years to break down. We use compostable textiles and packaging, whilst minimising production waste through pre-selling and making only to order - true Slow Fashion!

We still need bras!
Awareness is the first step. We all need clothes and we want to feel OK about buying them. Our products are not only compostable at end of life, but arrive wrapped in recyclable tissue paper and sent in a 100% compostable, or 80% recycled, and recyclable poly mailer.

Ocean Waste
Before they end up in landfill, synthetic textiles release half a million tonnes of plastic microfibre into our oceans through washing. It is estimated that by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in our oceans. We can change this by making better choices about the fabrics we buy.
