Every October, retailers are busting at the seams with pink merchandise for Breast Cancer Awareness month. But despite the annual pink product explosion, breast cancer patients used to find a dearth of stylish accessories designed to help them comfortably and stylishly navigate surgeries, chemo, and all other phases of battling the disease. That is, until recently.
"I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 at age 27, and went on the journey searching for fashionable bras after surgery," says Dana Donofree, owner of AnaOno Intimates, a lingerie line exclusively for women who've had breast cancer. "I didn't find ANY! My diagnosis was a blow to my world, [but] I didn't expect that my closet was going to be a problem!"
But thanks to Donofree and others like her, that's now a void these brave women no longer have to face.
Here, 10 of the latest and greatest accessories for breast cancer patients and survivors.
