Miss Mary has been a cotton specialist for many years, and a large part of our selection consists of cotton bras. Cotton is a fantastic material and particularly well suited to underwear, but are cotton bras really better than other bras? Here we look at the advantages and disadvantages of cotton.

When you choose which bra you want, the choice is often about the support, how it feels and what it looks like. We often forget about the material it’s made of, but the material affects comfort, support and how long the bra will last. Here is our textile guide for underwear.

Jacquard adds elegance to any garment and never goes out of fashion. It’s just as in vogue now as it was hundreds of years ago, when only the very wealthiest could afford it. Here we take a closer look at what makes this luxurious and iconic material so unique, and why it’s always a worthwhile investment for your wardrobe.
