Learn about bras from the guy who knows them better than you do! Moving Comfort's own Dan "The Bra Guy" will address the group with his most notable seminar about bras. You might not think a guy would know anything about this subject but trust us, he will prove you wrong. We will follow the talk with drinks, treats, and fittings.

Looking for some one-on-one attention and don't want to wait? On Friday, October 25 and Saturday, October 26 we will host bra fitting appointments all day long. No wait, no hassle, just show up for your scheduled appointment and our Fit Experts will fit you in the right bra.
