“A few years ago, I started going into perimenopause and my hormones changed and my breasts got bigger. I couldn’t fit in the bras I had and I had collected some really nice bras!”she says smiling.
So the sensational Padma Lakshmi – remembered from her ‘Sports Illustrated’ photo shoot – decided to create her own line of underwear that includes all sizes.
“I love underwear, but I also like to be comfortable. I found that as my breasts grew, there were fewer things available to me that I felt were both beautiful and comfortable.” points out.
Despite the fact that she is not as thin as she was when she was “plowing” the catwalks, Lakshmi emphasizes that she is much happier today. “All those years of “Top Chef” had their price”he says, smiling.
