Bras for a Cause Middle East: The Winners





You may remember that throughout May and June I spoke about Fustany and One Wig Stand 's breast cancer campaign and design contest Bras for a Cause Middle East.

Well finally, we have the winners!


















































And the winner of the designers' category...Mia Jafari. Here's a sneak peek of her winning design in production!


"Strawberry Sour bra"



So what's next for the winners? As well as winning their fabulous prizes their designs are now going into production and will be modelled on the catwalk in special fashion shows in Dubai and Beirut. And in October, the winners' designs will be sold in stock in designated stores around the Middle East, with proceeds going to breast cancer organizations around the region.
