Marbra launched in early 2023 between two mums, Laura Ormerod and Caroline Rowland, who met at the school gates and started talking about their experiences through those early days of motherhood. Sharing the highs and lows, what we both realised after lots of coffee and wine, that there was a gap in the market that was being missed. And as two mums we felt we wanted to help fill this gap.
Frustrated by the lack of viable solutions for nursing mothers, they have designed a bra that not only eliminates the need for disposable plastic nursing pads but also provides unparalleled comfort and support, and is like nothing currently on the market.
One of the most common issues faced by nursing mums is leakage, which can be inconvenient, uncomfortable, and embarrassing. Caroline and Laura, founders of Marbra, recognized this problem firsthand and decided to take matters into their own hands.
Combining their personal experiences, Caroline and Laura set out to create a bra that would revolutionize the way women breastfeed. After months of research and development, they have successfully crafted a leakproof bra that offers a game-changing solution.
The Marbra Everyday Leakproof Bra is meticulously engineered to provide maximum comfort, support, and convenience for nursing mothers. Its innovative design incorporates specialized fabric and advanced technology to prevent leaks and keep mums dry throughout the day. With the Marbra Leakproof Bra, disposable plastic nursing pads are now a thing of the past, reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
It’s seamless and wirefree design aligns with the much loved Marbra maternity and nursing bra collection released in 2023. The silky smooth material grows with your breasts and allows for a seamless look under clothes.
Caroline and Laura's dedication to creating a bra that meets the needs of breastfeeding mums is evident in every aspect of the Marbra brand. They understand the physical and emotional challenges that come with motherhood and have made it their mission to provide women with the support they deserve.
"We saw a problem in the market and knew we had to do something about it. Breastfeeding is already challenging enough, and we wanted to make it easier and more comfortable for mums everywhere," said Caroline, co-founder of Marbra. "With our leakproof bra, we aim to empower mothers and give them the confidence to breastfeed without worrying about leakage or discomfort."
With the launch of the leakproof bra they have also implemented body conscious sizing. Instead of their original sizing S - XL, the bra’s will come in five sizes that range from 0-4.
“We know firsthand how much pregnancy and postpartum changes your body and the effect that can have on a mum’s mental health, seeing that they are now a size large when they have always been a size small,” said Laura, co-founder of Marbra. “That is why we have changed the sizing, because we don’t want them to look at themselves as a size anymore. What our bodies do is so powerful and incredible and we want to celebrate that.”
