Cashmerette has released a strapless bra sewing pattern for big boobs—and now you can defy the laws of gravity and get the Symmes Strapless Bra for FREE!
The Symmes is built for serious support for big boobs in sizes 28C-54J, with vertical underwires, 4-pieces cups, and angled boning throughout to keep everything comfortably in place. Say goodbye to slipping, digging, and discomfort—and hello to a whole new world of wardrobe possibilities!
The Symmes is available to purchase as a standalone pattern for $20, or you can get it free (and get loads of other great benefits!) when you join Cashmerette Club All Access by May 31, 2025.
