Hi, I'm Melanie
After working in fashion supply chain for 15 years and becoming a manufacturing influencer (yes, that’s a thing - I have over 170k followers on Instagram that follow me through factories all over the world), long story short, I underwent my own prophylactic mastectomy in 2023.
.
Through my personal experience, it became painfully obvious that bra companies forgot who they were designing for - real women.
.
Because the truth is, on this very unfair journey, we are losing a piece of ourselves, not just physically but emotionally. So I created nu:titty, hoping to help women feel comfortable and confident in their new bodies.
.
I am optimistic for a future where, one day, there will be a cure for cancer, and nu:titty won’t be needed anymore. But, until then, we all deserve better.
3 months before my wedding my doctors thought I might have cancer I didn't
But, they did find that my breast cells were starting to look funky and that I had a 40%+ chance of getting cancer in the future
I'll share all the crazy details another day...
