hey folks at LuLu! Just wondered if you have considered carrying a small line of LuLugear for those of us who may be considering a new addition to the family. Your clothes are so comfortable and attractive, I think it would be amazing to have a pretty dress or yoga outfit tailored to those of us who would like to continue wearing your gorgeous clothes. A company that so loves the female form would be able to make really gorgeous products for us while we are trying to stay healthy and active during our pregnancies. Thanks!

Why doesn’t lulu have any plus sizes for women. I know they are yoga pants but they are also comfortable and great looking. So why not broaden the market to include plus size for those of us who love the materials and the look but can’t squeeze into a size 14?

there’s nothing more i’d love than a pair of rock out pants to go with my remix hoodie. as my bad luck has it, my large rear doesn’t feel right in a 12. if you carried your pants in a 14 (even if they were only available online!) i could actually have a nice pair of your pants for my dance classes!

many stores have plus size or larger options that can only be purchased online. in my opinion, it’s better than nothing. don’t you want to see my luscious mocha booty in a pair of your pants, lulu? (that’s a rhetorical question, i know you do.)

Hi Annette,

Thanks so much for your feedback! We rigorously test any hard wear before finally using it on our product. This hook also went through the same testing process and passed all our requirements. These hooks were tested to ensure that they are strong and add function to the garment.

I have not heard of this problem before, so it’s possible that there may be a quality issue with the particular bra you purchased. I definitely recommend that if you’re close to a store, you take it in for an educator to do an assessment for you. If you’re not close to a store, give us a call at the Guest Education Centre, 1.877.263.9300, option 2, and one of our educators will be able to help you work out a solution.

In the meantime, I will definitely forward this feedback along to our design team for their consideration. Thanks again!

I have been a runner/jogger for years. One of my frustrations with running bra’s is that although the support is awesome in alot of the new designs for bra’s for endowed women, the hardware sucks! I am a 34 D cup bra size and the little hooks that they put on the back of running bra’s break down so much faster because of wear and tear. Is there a reason why bigger, more industrial style hooks are not used in the running bra’s for women with bigger breast size. I have contemplated taking old running bra’s that are in good shape but the hooks are shot to a seamstress to replace with stronger hardware. Does this make sense? I would love feedback.

Love this blog and hearing about the design side of things at Lulu – I am currently studying sportswear design in the UK so this is a great read! Thanks!
