Artificial body parts can be tailor-made for extra comfort.
For women who have had mammary tissue removed because of cancer, there are bras with built-in prostheses. Still, these are not always comfortable.
A London-based architect, a cancer survivor herself, teamed up with underwear specialists to create one-cup lingerie and swimwear.
Because not every woman chooses breast reconstruction, and losing a breast doesn’t mean losing your femininity.

In future, breast cancer could be detected early using bras; cancer treatment progress is inspiring too.Â
