Specialist Curvy Kate had no less that 37 students vying for recognition with wild and wonderful new designs for large-cup-size bras and proving that big is serious beautiful

Talented lingerie student Sarah Greenwood has designed her way to the top European lingerie show in Paris after wowing a panel of judges from big bra specialists Curvy Kate. Sarah, 20, from Leicester, was one of 37 students on De Montfort University’s Contour Fashion degree course who were challenged by Curvy Kate to design large cup size lingerie for their summer range. Proving that full cup lingerie can be fun, playful and still perform the vital function needed to support a fuller bust, Sarah will now be working alongside Curvy Kate to develop her collection. She will also join them on the trip to Paris to have her design exhibited at Salon International, the leading lingerie design show in Europe this summer.
