Bras With Love

March 20, 2020 By Maggi Barnard

Philippa Mitchell.

Women in the Central West now have access to a unique service offered in the privacy of their homes.

Philippa Mitchell is a certified bra fitter and has started a mobile bra fitting service called Bras With Love. It is a personalised measure-and-fit service for bras, including women who need pocketed (mastectomy) bras and breast prostheses. And the best part is that Philippa will come to your home.

Philippa works closely with the McGrath Foundation Breast Care Nurses in Parkes and Orange and she carries a range of products for women who have undergone breast surgery and women going through treatment for cancer.

She also offers a range of headwear for women who have undergone chemotherapy. These are made from very soft cotton and bamboo with a great range of styles and colours.

“Being a mobile service is not just convenient, for many women it is the only way they can have a fitting by a trained professional,” said Philippa.

“A lot of women who’ve had surgery, are grieving, and they don’t want to go to a shop and be fitted in a fitting room. For them to be fitted in their own home, they tell me, is wonderful and much more relaxed.”

Philippa’s service is completely free and orders are mailed or delivered directly to the customer in about a week after the order is placed.

As a funeral celebrant, she is also very aware of the grief process, and has a warm and engaging nature to put everyone at ease.

All fittings are private and conducted with decorum. Contact Philippa by phone or email to book an appointment on 0499 991 650 or email: braswithlove@hotmail.com
