Comments on: A Call to Action for Clothing Designers – Make Comfortable Attractive Wear for Menopausal Goddesses http://www.menopausegoddessblog.com/2008/12/11/a-year-or-so-ago-i-blogged-about-menopausal-goddesses/ Mapping a course through menopause and midlife TOGETHER Sat, 04 Feb 2012 02:55:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dale http://www.menopausegoddessblog.com/2008/12/11/a-year-or-so-ago-i-blogged-about-menopausal-goddesses/comment-page-1/#comment-799 Dale Wed, 23 Sep 2009 14:43:43 +0000 http://test.dev/?p=321#comment-799 I'd like to suggest a web search for clothing companies/manufacturers/distributors that make organic (cotton) clothing. I've run across some items for "chest wear" that may come close to your description. There are also two companies that I've recently purchased from that offer sports/active wear and "regular" clothing, and I like the fit of the tops...bottoms beware, and check the fit information for the rise, so as not to purchase "hip hugger" styles. <br />These two companies are Title Nine and Athleta. They do seem to cater to the younger set, but browsing their wares and contacting them for additional info before purchase might be a reasonable consideration. <br />Cheers, and Happy Holidays!!! <br />Dale I'd like to suggest a web search for clothing companies/manufacturers/distributors that make organic (cotton) clothing.

They also make a related non-denim pant designed the same way. Waistline hits at the bottom of the belly button, no set-in waist (a "hollywood" waist), stretch in the fabric. These are the only jeans & slacks I own these days! Even if you haven't had a mastectomy, if you need more than a starter bra's support, check out Amoena's cotton mastectomy bras. They have attractive designs these days & the light cotton pocket for the prosthesis could be cut out if you don't want to leave it in. (I had a single mastectomy, which is how I found these.)
