Did you know that Bras were originally meant to flatten?
Did you know that Bras were originally meant to flatten?
This is true... The first bra was patented in the USA in 1914 out of two handkerchiefs and a narrow ribbon. Until the mid 1920's brassieres, as they were called, were boneless and designed to flatten the bust and push it downwards. This style was widely adopted during the 1920's when fashionable at-home dresses also known to us as the cocktail dress were often made of revealing semi- transparent fabrics. Over the years different forms did come into the design structure such as "boned", different sizes, shapes and styles.
The "push-up bra" was not designed until 1964 and did not gain wide popularity until 1994.
