| Boutique hours were clipped for the workshop |
Lingerie expert all the way from Taiwan,
Ms. Chen Ting Chen was invited to share basic lingerie knowledge. Chen Lao Shi
(Teacher Chen), as she was known throughout the workshop, has 32 years of
experience in the industry. She demonstrated her expertise by being our Google
in answering our questions. I felt comfortable disclosing my long time concerns
on the topic as participants were of the same gender and Chen Lao Shi was very
approving. Lingerie, she said, is something that women cannot skimp on. Lack of
knowledge will only cause more money spent on buying bad experience. It is time
for women to know how to pick the right bra by themselves instead of blindly
trusting the promoter who only eyes your sales.

| Lingerie in elegant designs |
Being an engineer, I was attracted to the
technicality involved in designing lingerie. Do not underestimate the
engineering part of undergarments. It is the one that transforms a delicate bra
into weapon of men’s destruction *wink to sisters* Sorella’s side seam is 13cm
long for better support of the side boob. The mid-panel is 2cm vertically
high compared to other bras that are usually 1.0-1.5cm high. Better support
will give the breasts a sexier 3D shape. The New Generation bras, which Sorella
labels their products, are also known as Wellness Bras which offershealth
benefits. Their new collection incorporates the latest Cool Fabric that keeps
the skin 1.5 oC lower. There are also bras that produce Far Infrared
Rays that promotes detoxification, prevents electromagnetic radiation and
improves blood circulation. Even panties are high-tech nowadays. Sorella uses a
fabric which has Nanometer Liquefied Titanium which absorbs unusual smell,
eliminates body odour and has anti-bacterial qualities. Impressive! There
should be a whole physics class on learning these technologies. I especially
like the one with air and baby oil pads that can massage the breasts. So think
again if you feel shallow reading lingerie catalogues.

| Technologies incorporated in the lingerie |
Sorella recently launched 3 new collections. The Dazzling Night for heavy chested, the Dreamy Crystal for the
medium sized and Romantic Whisper for the fun sized. The bras inherit the Far
Infrared Ray technology except for the Dreamy Crystal collection which has the
new Cool Fabric sewn in instead. Ofcourse aesthetics of the bra is vital. They
are elegantly designed and can turn any woman attractive. In my opinion, the
bedazzled ones have the potential to facilitate a romantic evening.

These are some knowledge that I took back
after the workshop:
To
get the perfect bra size for yourself, firstly you have to know yourself.
A.
To get the size of the bra,
measure the circumference of the body just below the breasts.
68-72 cm Size
70
73-77cm Size
75
78-82cm Size
80
83-87cm Size
85
88-92cm Size
90
B.
To get the cup size, calculate
the difference between the circumference of the body where it is the thickest
around the breast and the bra size.
10cm difference A
cup
13cm difference B
cup
15cm difference C
cup
18cm difference D
cup
20cm difference E cup

Interesting facts about bras
1.
The lifespan of a bra is until
90 times of washing.
2.
Bras are important to maintain
the shape of your busts. Is an extra flesh under the armpit a familiar sight to
you? That used to be breast. That is
caused by wrongly fitted bras.
3.
Do not wear bra when sleeping.
This is because we are not conscious of our movements while we sleep and this
might cause the breast to run out of the mould of the bra.
4.
The front and back of the bra
has to be level when worn. If the back of the bra is lifted, it is time to
change the bra.
5.
Dry the bra upside down by
clipping the lower panel so that the weight of the water does not pull the
elastic sides. Do not dry it directly under the sun.
6.
The ideal tightness of the
strap is when only one thumb can fit between the shoulder and the strap.

| Shopping for my new best friend |
We took turns to have a private session
with Chen Lao Shi who measured us and picked the right bra that was unique to
us according to standard size. I had the opportunity to shop for the design of
my choice that comes with a matching panty. When shopping in Sorella, do not
worry if your panty is up a size. The cutting of the panties is smaller. Best
of all, the prices remain the same even after GST. Being a fan of bling, I chose a black number
with rhinestones. Hope this new best friend will make me look elegant and sexy. Thank you Sorella for the
experience!
