The company has since seen a meteoric rise boasting sales of £50.2 million in its last financial statement.

Alongside its venture into the US, the brand plans to launch more stores across the UK, focusing on the South East and London.

“We know that many big-boobed women in the US find it really difficult to get a good choice of bras in bigger cup sizes, and we‘d love to be able to offer them a more positive shopping experience,” a spokesperson said.
