Bras, lingerie, sleep and swim drafted on real curves—not stretched from a straight-size block. Band 28–56. Cup A–K. Every order ships with a free Fit Finder consult and free returns on unworn pieces.
Five core rails, each graded across the full band-and-cup grid — so the thing you want is built for your size, not adapted from it.
From the smoothing T-shirt to the plunge you actually want to wear out.

In 2017 we abandoned the straight-size grading grid and started over with 1,200 volunteer fittings across the country. The result is a 14-band, 9-cup-depth pattern library that we re-test every season with our certified fit specialists.
Renée Castillo started Hips & Thongs in a 200 sq ft Brooklyn studio in 2014 after a decade of being told her body was the wrong shape for retail. Eleven years later, 87 of us work out of a 42,000 sq ft headquarters in Mechanicsburg, PA — but the rule is the same as day one: if it doesn’t fit a real body in a real fitting room, it doesn’t ship.

14 band sizes cross 9 cup depths — 126 unique size blocks per style. Compare that to the typical intimates brand’s 24-block grid, and the math on why plus-size shoppers get a worse fit stops being mysterious.
14 certified bra fit specialists staff our live chat — average response 38 seconds, no bots. Six in-house patternmakers turn every fitting note into a revised block within the same week.
Our Fit Finder quiz reads your measurements against the CurveLab™ grading grid and matches you to a band-and-cup block with 96% reported accuracy — across 84,000+ sessions in 2024.
