    No.80: Introducing Our New Everyday Essentials

    The wait is OVER! The newest post-mastectomy additions to the AnaOno Family have finally arrived. These are our softest, most comfortable bras yet!

    Meet Molly and Monica: your new everyday essential bras. These soft, supportive and sexy surgical bras were made just for YOU, no matter what stage of your diagnosis, treatment or surgical journey you are in. These dreamy wire-free bras are the epitome of cozy support. In fact, they're so comfortable, you'll completely forget you're wearing a bra in the first place. ⁠

    Let's take a closer look at these new styles so you can figure out which one is best for you-or if you want to make sure you have both in your lingerie drawer!

    WHY DO I NEED TO WEAR A BRA AT ALL?

    Remember when your doctor told you to wear nothing (because there weren't any comfortable bras after surgery, mastectomy, lumpectomy, FLAP surgery or radiation)? Our answer to "nothing" is a collection of bras that are so comfortable, you won't even know you have them on.

    Just because you may not have a physical necessity for a bra doesn't mean they don't make you feel confident and supported. Plus, you may WANT to wear one. For some of us, it's the feeling of the soft fabric against our skin. For some, having a soft bra supporting post-surgical irritation, scars and effects from radiation and other breast cancer treatments and medicine is comforting. For others, it may be knowing you have something special or pretty under your favorite dress. When a bra is the first thing you put on in the morning, it's important to have a beautiful and comfortable bra that is designed to fit your body AND that makes you feel confident. That way, you're not waiting to tear it off at the end of the day or hindering your recovery in any way.

    If you wantthe comforting ritual of putting a bra on every morning, and want to feel the shiver of excitement when you find a bra that makes you feel beautiful (or when your lover takes it off at night), then you deserve to have the best, most beautiful post-mastectomy, breast surgery, lumpectomy and radiation bras possible!

    MEET THE MONICA BRA

    The Monica Bra is the ultimate everyday bra for supreme comfort and support. Made of cloud-soft material, this bra will keep you cozy for days on end. We're serious-you could wear this bra for days and still feel extremely comfortable. It's soft and comfortable, you won't even know you have it on.

    Thoughtfully designed with care, the Monica Bra features a pocketed design to effortlessly accommodate expanders, a breast prosthesis or lightweight breast forms like the AnaOno F(oo)B™ inserts. That means this everyday bra with pockets works for those with one breast after unilateral mastectomy or for those after double mastectomy who want to wear it with breast forms. If you are flat after double mastectomy, this bra will also lay smoothly across your chest without puckering or excess fabric getting in the way. That way you can rock your flat and fabulous body and still wear all your favorite outfits!

    The Monica comes with convertible and adjustable straps. You can wear the straps straight or in a cross-back style and adjust the strap length to accommodate any size changes you experience during and after recovery. The wide back bridge function as a stylish design element but will also fit your post-surgical body like a dream.

    This super-soft underwire-free bra style has a modest neckline and comes with soft seaming to prevent any skin irritation. It also has removable pads in the bra pockets, so you can feel covered and confident no matter where the day takes you, from yoga to the office to the bedroom. The lightweight, full-coverage design is perfect for barely-there wear and for those with fuller busts who don't want to have to constantly adjust their bra.

    The Monica is for patients in any phase of their surgical or treatment journey including: post-surgery, radiation, sensitive skin and chronic pain. The design also provides balance if you have had a unilateral surgery and the size between your breasts differ; simply use the built-in pockets to achieve the balance you desire. This style can be worn by breast cancer patients, thrivers, survivors and previvors who have had a single or double mastectomy, reconstruction surgery, DIEP flap reconstruction, lumpectomy and other breast surgeries including reduction. Overall, it's one of our most versatile and most popular bras ever, especially since many people continue to wear it long after their treatment and recovery is complete.
