Size chart
Four sizes: S, M, L and XL.
Sized by weight, not age — two girls the same age can be built completely differently. Weigh her, find her band, done. No tape measure, no cup sizes.
Between two sizes? Size up. The knit has a lot of stretch, and a bra that feels tight is the one she stops wearing.

The Play Shorts
The day she stopped sitting still is the day these start earning their keep.
Somewhere between the classroom and the monkey bars, a school skirt turns into something she has to manage. These are the fix. A soft, seamless short that lives underneath her dress, her skirt, her uniform — and quietly hands her back the cartwheel.
She pulls them on in the morning and forgets they're there. That's the whole job.
Made for a full school day
- Stays put — a wide, flat waistband that doesn't roll down or dig a line into her stomach
- Seamless — knitted in one piece, so there are no seams to rub and no lines showing through a uniform
- Smooth leg edge — finished flat instead of hemmed, so nothing bunches at the top of her leg
- Breathable — lightweight and quick-drying for hot classrooms, PE and playground afternoons
- Tagless — nothing scratching the small of her back all day
- Machine washable — cold cycle, hang dry, done
Why mothers order more than one
Because this isn't a special-occasion item. It's the thing she puts on every single school morning, and the mornings you can't find one are the mornings you hear about it. Most mothers keep one in the wash, one in the drawer, and one in the bag.
Four colours
Black, white and beige disappear under a uniform. Pink is there because she'll want to pick one herself — which, quietly, is half the point.
Materials
Soft seamless stretch knit. High stretch, lightweight, and smooth against skin — nothing itchy, nothing stiff, no elastic bands sewn in.
Finding her size
Go by her height in feet and inches. It's the one number you already know, it's how these are cut, and it beats guessing from a clothing size that means something different at every shop.
| Size | Age | Height | Waist | Hip | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 120 | 5–6 years | 3'11" · 120 cm | 18½" · 47 cm | 22" · 56 cm | 10" · 25.5 cm |
| 130 | 7–8 years | 4'3" · 130 cm | 20" · 51 cm | 23½" · 60 cm | 10½" · 27 cm |
| 140 | 9–10 years | 4'7" · 140 cm | 21½" · 55 cm | 25¼" · 64 cm | 11¼" · 28.5 cm |
| 150 | 11–12 years | 4'11" · 150 cm | 23¼" · 59 cm | 26¾" · 68 cm | 11¾" · 30 cm |
| 160 | 13–14 years | 5'3" · 160 cm | 24¾" · 63 cm | 28¼" · 72 cm | 12½" · 32 cm |
The size number (120, 130, 140…) is the height each pair is cut for in centimetres, and it's what's printed on the tag. Use the height column — that's the same number in feet and inches.
Waist, hip and length are the shorts, not her. They're measured flat and unstretched, so they're the numbers to compare against a pair she already owns — the knit stretches well past them on the body. To pick a size, go by her height.
Between two sizes? Take the taller one. The knit stretches a long way, and the extra length is coverage she'll be glad of by next term.
60-day free exchanges
Wrong size, or just not the colour she hoped for? Send it back within 60 days and we'll swap it, free. You're buying for a girl who changes every few months — you shouldn't be punished for guessing.
Plain packaging, always
Every order ships in unbranded outer packaging with nothing on the label describing what's inside.
Care
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, hang to dry. Skip the fabric softener — it breaks down the stretch.
Gently does it.
-
She put it on and didn't mention it again — which, with a ten-year-old, is the highest praise available.
-
Finally something that isn't just a tiny adult bra. Actually built for her age.
-
Nothing on the box says what it is. She opened it herself and was thrilled.
Description
Description
Her first bra shouldn't feel like a big deal. This one is soft, seamless and quiet enough that she can put it on, forget about it, and get on with her day.
- Completely seamless — nothing digs in or shows under clothes
- No wires, no removable pads, no scratchy tags
- Double-lined front for full coverage under a school shirt
- Wide, flat straps that don't slip or cut in
- Four-way stretch, so it still fits through a growth spurt
- Machine washable and holds its shape
Most bras that fit a ten-year-old are adult bras made smaller. This one was designed for her body from the start.
Materials & care
Materials & care
Fabric: 65% Nylon, 35% Spandex — brushed for softness, four-way stretch.
Care: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Hang dry. No bleach, no fabric softener, no tumble dryer — heat is what kills stretch.

What mothers tell us
-
She put it on and didn't mention it again
Which, if you have a ten-year-old, is the highest praise available. She'd been refusing anything with a wire for months. This one just… worked. Ordered two more colours the same week.
-
Finally something that isn't a tiny adult bra
Everything I found was either a crop top or a shrunken push-up. This is actually built for her age. The double lining is exactly the coverage I wanted under her white school shirt.
-
The packaging matters more than you'd think
I ordered it to arrive while she was at school so I could give it to her privately. Turned out I didn't need to — nothing on the box says what it is. She opened it herself and was thrilled.
-
Sized up like they said and it was right
She was between M and L. The chart said size up, I did, and it fits with room to grow. Appreciated that they size by chest and not by age — she's tall for nine and every age chart had her wrong.
