Surfing the Web
We were out surfing on the internet when we landed on Eveden Group’s website and we learned a few things about our supplier! Eveden is the parent company responsible for bringing you Fantasie, Freya, Goddess, Fauve and Elomi. We obviously love their quality and fit!
First we learned this:
“All of our materials are responsibly sourced from our trusted suppliers around the globe, in more than 30 countries and manufactured in high quality environments with rigorously applied employee welfare policies and practices. Having already made significant inroads to reducing our ‘bra miles’, we continue to shrink our carbon footprint by constantly challenging all aspects of our supply chain and adopting both local and international improvement initiatives.”
So that kinda felt good! And then we clicked over to their history of lingerie and learned this nifty fact -
“It was in 1914 when American Mary Phelps-Jacobs, patented her design in the name of Caresse-Crosby. It consisted of two silk handkerchiefs tied together with ribbon to make straps and a seam in the centre front, due to lack of interest, a few years later she sold her idea to Warner’s for $1500-.”
My goodness. Imagine that! The first cup sizing included only A, B and C in Junior or Medium. Now bras come in a much wider range – Eveden’s range is 28-52 back and B-K cup.
