About https://www.zara.com
Raised in North Carolina, Ann Deal is from a family of entrepreneurial retailers. She began her own retailing career as an intimate apparel buyer for Rich’s department store in Atlanta with the hopes of opening her own business, launching Freedom Forms in Florida in 1987. In 1993 she moved the company to California and renamed it Fashion Forms, relying on her dynamic personality, a good network of retailer friends, and one hot product – the Adhesive Body Bra – to make intimate apparel history. Deal applied her eye for fashion direction and intimate apparel expertise, developed over 27 years, to establish the Fashion Forms brand. In less than 10 years, Fashion Forms became the nation’s leader in bra accessories, constantly introducing new and useful intimate apparel accessories like water push-up pads, shoulder cushions, adhesive bras and more. Fashion Forms became the exclusive U.S. distributor for patented products such as StrapMate® and Staykups™, Peel N’ Stick Cups™, NuBra®, and NuBra® Ultralite™. Deal expanded the company’s accessory business and revolutionized the bra market with the U.S introduction of The Original Water Push Up Bra™ in 1997. Recognizing that women needed a ‘smarter’ bra, Deal developed the Original Water Bra, introducing the world to one of the greatest non-surgical concepts in bust enhancement. Fashion Forms is committed to continually delivering innovative bras and accessories for women’s changing needs and desires. That steadfast attention to quality and a high level of customer service has earned Ms. Deal the respect of top department stores throughout the U.S.
