Founder & Designer
Sarah Lam
Hello there, I am Sarah, born in Hong Kong, living in Melbourne Australia.
I have been in the lingerie industry since 2002; designing bras, lingerie co-ordinates, briefs and everything in the underwear field.
Throughout my career, I have designed & developed fashionable & technological advanced lingerie products and collections successfully for many brands, sold internationally and locally. I enjoy helping and guiding my clients to develop their own product ranges. I take pride in my professional work with a versatile style & ability.
In 2019, I decided to work for myself and started SA9 Design, providing a freelance design and development service.
It is my goal to build my clients to success!
