Feel Beautiful and Confident
We create fashion for the asymmetrical upper body and offer the sewing patterns as PDF so you can print out the pattern and make your own perfectly fitting individual garment (maybe with the help of a seamstress) 🤩 See an overview of our designs here and let us know which sewing pattern(s) we can send you by email 💛
After breast cancer or due to a genetic defect, you can have one breast only, or a difference in the size of your breasts. That makes your upper body asymmetrical, while most fashion is designed for symmetrical bodies. When you don’t want to wear a bra with prosthesis, finding suitable fashion for your upper body can be difficult. In an AMA WEAR design, the asymmetry of your upper body is not noticeable, or it is decorated, or you show that you are proud to be a breast cancer survivor and you stand behind your body as it is, encouraging others to do the same.

We collaborate with international fashion designers and thus appeal to the different styles and tastes of our clients. We encourage fashion designers to think out of the box, to enlarge their portfolio with meaningful work and to strengthen the world of inclusive fashion – a topic that is not getting enough attention yet. With offering the digital sewing patterns for download, AMA WEAR reaches out to her customers globally. We care about the environment, so we don’t want to create clothing waste. In countries with high unemployment, we help on different levels through our collaboration and who asks a seamstress for help, also supports the local economy. The sewing patterns are for free, as a gift for the ones who deserve it.
AMA WEAR Spolek is a non-profit organisation founded by Barbara Pella in 2023. After an unilateral mastectomy, she is happy and proud to be a breast cancer survivor and passes on her gratitude by supporting and encouraging others.
The name AMA WEAR is inspired by the Greek mythology: Amazons were a group of warriors and hunters in a female body. They had only one breast, so they could shoot unhindered with the bow. The Amazons were gifted with high physical agility and strength, they were courageous, fierce and independent.
