Thank God For The



Bra .....and its the 100th anniversary !!!!
Here is just a little bit about the wonder that is the bra ! Also I think wonder bra made bra's cool ....I mean I do love the first cone bra ... but we now have ever style of bra going, for anything ...running, looking like we have bigger boobs, looking like we have less and putting them where they once were and pushing them were they have never been. Thank goodness for the bra, are secret helper ;P

Since the late 19th century, it has replaced the corset as the most widely accepted method for supporting a woman's breasts.

Women wear bras for a variety of purposes, for support, to improve the shape of breasts, to reduce or to enlarge the perceived breast size, to restrain breast movement during an activity such as during exercise, to enhance their cleavage or to facilitate nursing. Most bras are designed to be form-fitting and to lift the breasts off the chest wall if they sag and to restrain their movement. Bra designers strive to produce a garment that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. For some people, the bra has become a garment with erotic significance and a feminine icon or symbol with political and cultural significance beyond its primary function. Some feminists consider the brassiere a symbol of the repression of women's bodies.Historically, when a young girl gets her first bra, it may be symbolic of her coming of age.

So I think madge, put bra's on the map with help of the amazing John paul Gaultier. I mean there would be no underwear as outer wear without his vision back in the day I think. He is my fave designer and if I ever met him I would have to ask him to sign my bra !!! Anyway I will do a post another day on my love for John Paul. So here are the pictures from the 100th celebration .....fab

Bra's we won't forget !
