The STORY Behind The BRAND
Every woman needs the most comfortable bra that is suitable for her fashion attire especially to show off her beautiful shoulders but looks as good when worn with a t-shirt. It's an everyday kind of bra! Simple as that!
Our Founder
“I spent so much money trying to find a comfortable strapless bra that would hold and that wouldn’t make me want to take it off as soon as I arrived home. I never found one, so I decided to create my own.”
With a mission in mind, Diana Van Leeuwaarde created the KARÈSTM brand, with its first signature bandeau bra, KARA. Since 1996, she has been working in the fashion industry, specifically in ladies wear, but designing a bra was a first for her. She developed a deep understanding of the industry and can relate to women’s need for comfort and support, with a sense of fashion. She asked women of all shapes and sizes to share their frustrations when it comes to their bras, and worked to find the best makers to help with this project. After many challenges and rounds of trials, a group of women came together to try on the final product. It was unanimous, “It feels like a hug” - mission accomplished.

Give KARÈSTM a try
There are so many bras out there but none like KARÈSTM. Our product may not look very different but it will embrace you differently with our unique single pad UNIBRA for optional bust enhancement or not. Plus, for a limited time, you will receive free gifts when purchasing your KARA bra.
Chez Doris
Kareswear is so proud to be able to give back to our community. We have sent our Kara bras to Chez Doris, a charitable organization that offers a range of services and programs to meet the most basic and immediate needs of vulnerable women and homeless women.
They are the only women’s shelter in Montréal offering 24/7 service. By providing personal hygiene products, health and mental services.
We are so blessed to collaborate with such a great organization.
Thank you @ChezDorisRefuge / @chezdorisrefuge for creating such an important space in our community.
