The Travel Bra Story
The Story Behind The Travel Bra
Welcome to The Travel Bra!
My name is Annie Holden, and I am the inventor of The Travel Bra. It all started back in 2015. I am an anthropologist and at the time was working in India with women marble miners. The marble mines are located in a remote part of Rajasthan and I came up against the challenge of having to carry bundles of cash to pay the field workers who were guiding and assisting me. There are no ATMs or banks in these remote parts and what was I to do? I had to the put the money in a bag which I had to carry with me and guard at all times - what a hassle!
I am also a passionate solo traveler.
Enter the need for travel clothing where I can hide my valuables and keep them close.
Frustrated by clunky money belts that were a nightmare to wear in the heat, I envisioned a smarter solution. So I teamed up with a lingerie expert and together we created the ultimate anti-theft travel bra.
I wanted something comfortable and clever - somewhere I could hide cash and valuables, and also my passport for the times when I was sleeping in a dorm.
It had to be comfortable, discreet, and secure, and we did it! We created The Travel Bra. It cleverly combines hidden compartments for essentials like jewelry, my camera SD card, cash, passport, and credit cards with breathable, quick-drying fabrics for all-day comfort.Â
I'm so proud and The Travel Bra has even become an award winner in travel clothing!
My mission now is to do all I can to encourage and support all women, of all ages, on all adventures, to travel safely and comfortably.Â
Stay tuned as we are now creating and sourcing other products that we can offer to make it easier, safer and even more enjoyable for women to travel.
Travel is fuel for my soul!
