History
The concept for Yummie by Heather Thomson stemmed from Thomson’s personal desire to shed her excess baby weight after giving birth. Upon visiting department stores and not being able to find a shapewear product that worked for her body, Heather leaned on her years of design experience and developed the brand’s signature patented 3-panel tank, thereby marking the foundation for the Yummie by Heather Thomson brand. Realizing that if she needed it, other women would need it too, Thomson sought out to identify the problem areas that women might have. In turn, she developed shapewear solutions that work for all body types. In launching Yummie by Heather Thomson in 2010, Thomson filled a void in women’s wardrobes by expanding her shapewear collection to include ready-to-wear.
Yummie by Heather Thomson currently has distribution agreements in the United States, Philippines, United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Australia and Austria as well as extensive sales in the Benelux and more than 20 other countries.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Look through the whole history of countries professing the Romish religion, and you will uniformly find the leaven of this besetting and accursed principle of action—that the end will sanction any means.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
“The history of reform is always identical; it is the comparison of the idea with the fact. Our modes of living are not agreeable to our imagination. We suspect they are unworthy. We arraign our daily employments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Hence poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history, since its statements are rather of the nature of universals, whereas those of history are singulars.”
