Seriously cannot believe I made this! This was my first time sewing a bra of any kind. I made a lot of mistakes along the way, but it was such a fun learning experience. I can’t wait to try again!

Testimonials

"For someone who never needed an underwire to wanting one, I jumped on Maddie's Underwire Bra Theory course. I learned so much in such a short time frame! I am still amazed at how well Maddie was able to fit me off a picture and just one fitting. She truly wants you to learn and make you feel confident in making bespoke lingerie. Totally recommend this course!"  

"Thank you so much for these resources, and for the great class! I'm itching now to work on the next bra, and the next one, and the next one. I appreciate the way you shared some of your vast bra knowledge with me!"  

"Fits like a dream!!! Loved the virtual bra making class and fitting."  

"Madalynne's Underwire Bra Theory Virtual Workshop…Wow!!! I am so impressed. I want to thank Madalynne Intimates for providing such a wonderful experience. I went into this workshop not really knowing if I had what it took to make an underwire bra. While I was very excited about the course, I was very intimidated by the notion of creating a bra, from scratch, and at home. Also, I wasn’t sure if I could even keep up with the pace of the class and be successful while balancing my personal life."
