Welcome to our second collaboration with iconic UK Liberty Fabric! The word Pansy derives from the latin verb Pensare - to take everything into consideration, to think! We love this, the thinking woman's bra - Pansy :-)
The body of the bra is organic cotton with a print in REACH dyes. This design is almost identical to our original Liberty bra (read reviews here), except we have removed the banding on the frame and cups to make it sit flatter and more streamlined. As ever, it has no underwires and is super soft on the body. The front V wire gives great separation and support across all sizes, and works particularly well with larger cups. The bra has a woven organic cotton liner in the band that sits next to the body and anchors it in place, preventing it stretching over time. Because there is no spandex in the bra, it can run a little smaller in size than your regular bra as it has less stretch.
Everything in this bra, from the elastic, tencel sewing thread and custom-made hook and eye pieces is botanically circular, designed to break down in nature at end-of-life and leave no trace. A true plastic-free bra.

We fundamentally believe that everything we make in the 21st Century should be designed with its end in sight. No excuses.

At last, the perfect bra!
This bra is the most comfortable I have had, and it is a very flattering fit as well (much more flattering than I expected- it is a lovely shape and cut). But what I am most happy about is that is is compostable at the end of its life! Recently I have been feeling so tired of products that are nearly eco- friendly, but not quite- but this bra has fixed the problem! I am so glad to have finally found a place to buy underwear that I can feel 100% happy about!

Pansy Perfect.
My new Liberty Pansy VGB & matching High Leg briefs are delightfully pretty and very comfortable. Just wearing such a gorgeous matching set makes me feel great & brings a smile. There'll be more matching sets for me in the future & I love that every step of the manufacture, supply & life cycle of this underwear is carefully considered and environmentally ethical to the smallest detail. It made my day receiving a signed card with my package from the VGB picker & packer - an added, inclusive, very caring, bonus in my book.

Comfortable and pretty bra
I'm really delighted with my Liberty Pansy bra. The fit was perfect and it's comfortable to wear. It looks super cute with the matching undies. I really appreciate that it came with instructions on how to repair it, then compost it at the end of its life. I will definitely purchase more Very Good underwear.

The best bra in a while
I love the Liberty Pansy bra. From the minute I put it on I realised how amazing comfortable and attractive it is. The fabric is very soft and lovely and the bra design is flattering. I am already considering my next bra purchase.
