How did we come to be in Australia?

Do you believe in fate? I (Helen) think of myself as a rational person who is not really sure that 'fate' exists but one thing for sure is that some things happen for a reason... Earlier this year I received an email from a lingerie entrepreneur in Australia, who is a leader in post breast cancer bra fitting and wanted to fly over to attend my specialist training course in London. I was honoured and delighted - even more so when we met, and instantly hit it off. Since that training course, Gillian Horton and I have spent many hours on early morning or late night zoom calls discussing all things 'bra' and 'bra fitting' related.

We have a shared mission to give more women across the world the 'wow' feeling of getting into the right bra for the first time.

This mission has taken Gillian to places like Fiji, where she selflessly gave up her free time to provide expert bra fittings, and free bras to women in need after breast cancer - while I have been training bra fitters as far afield as Italy, the USA & Africa. We are at the other end of the world from each other, but we are united in our goal and we are super excited to now be joining forces to fill a long-standing gap for expert bra fitting training at affordable prices and in accessible formats for Australian lingerie businesses.

Pudding's new range of bra fitting training courses, from beginner to advanced, are available remotely for Australian brands and retailers now. All courses currently come with a free place on one of our online bra fitting troubleshooting webinars and the option of becoming certified as an expert bra fitter via a face to face assessment. Contact us at Pudding or reach out to Gillian Horton for more information. A lot has happened since we met on that first Better Bras After Breast Cancer, Cancer Research UK endorsed bra fitting training course in London - it must have been fate!
