Summary
The goal of the project is to create a bra designed for trans and non-binary tweens and teens that have not developed up top. The bra will be designed along with a matching pair of shaping underwear. The project also includes the design of swim shorts as some kids are still uncomfortable with the current swim bottoms and would like more coverage.

Description (French)
L'objectif du projet est de créer un soutien-gorge conçu pour les préadolescents et les adolescents trans et non binaires dont la poitrine n’est pas développée. Le soutien-gorge sera conçu en même temps qu'une paire de sous-vêtements façonnants assortis. Le projet comprend également la conception d'un short de bain, car certains enfants ne sont toujours pas à l'aise avec les maillots actuels et aimeraient être mieux couverts.
