About Bree McKeen

Bree McKeen is the visionary founder and CEO of Evelyn & Bobbie, a brand revolutionizing the intimates industry with a focus on comfort, innovation, and inclusivity. As a 34G woman, Bree endured years of discomfort from traditional underwire bras, experiencing shoulder pain, tension headaches, and posture issues. Determined to find a solution, she left a promising career in finance to create a better alternative.

Drawing from her background in medical anthropology and business, Bree developed the patented EB Core® technology, a structural innovation that offers support without the discomfort of underwires. Since launching in 2019, Evelyn & Bobbie has grown rapidly, now available in over 300 stores across the U.S., with net sales reaching $17 million and a 93% year-over-year growth.

Beyond business success, Bree is deeply committed to honoring the women who inspired her brand. Evelyn & Bobbie is named after her grandmother, Evelyn, a model and starlet who epitomized elegance, and her aunt, Bobbie, a seamstress and entrepreneur who instilled in Bree a passion for design and detail.

Bree's journey reflects her belief that comfort and performance are non-negotiable, and she continues to lead with a vision to redefine what lingerie can and should be.
