An 18-year-old Texas student has created Yellowberry for women who are developing and are having a hard time finding the perfect fitting [training bra](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/underwire-bra-collection). Trying to figure out which bra works best for you takes time; there are many options and it can be overwhelming. Megan Grassell didn't like the options that were out there for her or for her [younger sister](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cureus-label).

When her mother took her to get her first bra, Megan was overwhelmed and confused. She told The Huffington Post that "a woman handed me a bunch of fuchsia bras, and ushered me into a changing room to fend for myself. I remember being too embarrassed to walk out of the dressing room with a bra on under my clothes because I looked so different."

After being shot down by many for thinking she was too young to be trying to make a change Megan created a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/entrepreneurship-for-children) campaign and is now helping young girls around the world but appropriate and appealing bras for their ages.
