Spring refresh: The Fitting Room

by Metropol | September 16, 2026 8:33 am


Help is at hand for the perfect fit.

Spring is in the air, and it’s not only the flowers emerging from winter hibernation. With longer, warmer days, it’s time to shed the winter woollens and freshen up your wardrobe.
Good foundation wear is the place to start. Bras that dig in or straps that leave painful marks on your shoulders could signal it’s time for a fitting.

At The Fitting Room, co-owner Deborah Lewthwaite and her team offer expert advice to help women find their perfect lingerie. “We offer a one-on-one bra-fitting service,” Deborah says. “A lot of our stock is out the back, so having an assistant’s help makes a tremendous difference.

I recommend booking an appointment through our website or calling ahead. We can occasionally accommodate drop-ins, but it’s best to book a time, especially on a Saturday.”

Specialising in larger cup sizes, The Fitting Room is the exclusive stockist of Belgian label Primadonna, combining fashion with support. The store also stocks the UK brand Elomi, which has sizes 12–24 and cups up to K.

For those who prefer non-wired styles, The Fitting Room offers a great selection of bras without wires, including pretty lacy bralettes from Wacoal. German brand Anita has a high quality selection of non-wired bras, including several styles with pockets for women after mastectomy surgery.

Whether you’re after everyday support or something luxurious, the team can help you navigate a new cup size, which will put a spring in your step.
Find stores at 207 Fendalton Road and 360 Colombo Street, Sydenham.
