If your cups always seem to be running over, or if your underwear is just plain worn out, Minneapolis-based lingerie designer Sarah White invites you to be be your own Valentine and treat the one you love (i.e. you) to custom made undergarments from Jagress Intimates.
More personal than a greeting card, more lasting than flowers, more flattering to your figure than a box of chocolates, White believes that made-to-order/made-to-fit lingerie are that very special present which makes you look good on the outside and feel even better on the inside.
In the following Q&A, White shares her thoughts on granny panties, ill-fitting bras, and how Jagress Intimates aims to call forth the sexy superheroine in every woman.
What does a woman’s undergarments say about her?
It's more about what she feels she's able to say while wearing them. Confidence exudes from women who know they are wearing something special underneath their daily garb that fits properly and was made especially for them.
Why should you give yourself or someone else the gift of custom made lingerie?
High quality intimate apparel from Jagress Intimates really is the the perfect gift for the woman who desires to feel special. Help her forego the headache and guess work of searching for the perfect fit and look. With my help, she will gain refinement in her life and her figure in one fell swoop.
Are granny panties ever okay to wear?
One of my first clients is 90, so yes could easily be the answer. If you are referring to oversized cotton briefs that can be pulled over your ears, then no, that's never sexy or okay.
Is it true that women don’t really know their true bra size? How did this happen?
I have yet to conduct my own research, but there are statistics left and right that state 85 percent of women are wearing the wrong bra size. The problem is most women don't realize they are wearing ill-fitting bras because they've never felt the difference the correct bra can make! Women simply are not educated on how to measure themselves and unfortunately, are often inaccurately measured at big box stores. Also, women need to understand that because their bodies change many times throughout their lives, frequent bra fittings are necessary.
Can the wrong undergarments ruin an otherwise fabulous look? There’s VPL (visible panty line) but what else is there?
A fantastic wardrobe of undergarments is more important to have than any other wardrobe. It is what makes any other item you put on look its best. The wrong sized bra causes most outfits to look less than to be desired. Most often, women are off by two sizes! This can cause all kinds of awful sights!
What made you want to design custom lingerie?
Designing intimates combines my love of the fine intricacies of high quality materials and the ability to truly help women. I have been sewing and designing for most of my life. I have the technical experience to create for the needs of each individual woman.
Where did the name Jagress Intimates come from?
Jagress was the self-derived superhero name I gave myself when I was two.
What can Jagress Intimates offer the woman who is not into lace and frills?
The possibilities are endless.
What can Jagress Intimates offer the woman who doesn’t feel sexy enough to wear custom lingerie?
[It can] change her mind. She will feel sexy in lingerie by Jagress Intimates.
Do you have to live in the Twin Cities to use your services?
It is always preferred that I meet with my clients to discuss designing couture pieces for them and to take measurements. My clients that live outside of the Twin Cities simply make a day trip event out of coming to see me that often includes a spa appointment in town.
For those that are not able to visit with me in person, I can consult with by email at info@jagressintimates.com.
