2015 Creative Cups

Megan and Claire Valyou

Radiant Elegance

The past fifteen years of my career have been as a mammography technologist. Over the years I have met thousands of women; from the nerves of a first mammogram, to tears of a cancer diagnosis, to the hugs of recovery and the cheers of remission years later. It is a career that I enjoy and am proud to be part of.

My daughter, Claire (age 9), has always been by my side to show support for breast cancer and when she heard about Creative Cups, said, “we have to do it!!!” At the time she was learning about Brazil’s Carnival and all the sparkle and excitement that came from this colorful celebration; this is what she wanted to use as the basis for the bra.

This bra is to remind everyone that even when life gets tough we all have sparkle and shine, that we need to take time to dance and celebrate who we are, to radiate an elegance that makes all whom you meet smile.

I could not be more proud to have created this bra with the artistic direction of my little sparkle, my daughter, whose generous heart touches many!
