Bras: An Uplifting Experience

Sophia & Busty
Boobs, tits, tatas, knockers, and melons. If a culture's priorities can be identified by the number of words that describe them, then breasts are right up there with cash/cabbage/moola...

Bosoms have a thousand colorful descriptives from merely silly to really degrading.


Victorian Queen

Even in the pre-bra world, breasts were bound, boosted, flattened, exposed, and generally a focal point around which women's fashion was designed. Styles change but bosoms retain their firm influence on fashion.
   

Joan & the Mad Men
According to Jen� Luciani, author of The Bra Book, "Bras have a tough job, they defy gravity." Meaning that by the time we're in our 40s our bras should be high-tech power tools.

Ms. Luciani's best bra wisdom? "The bra is the foundation of your wardrobe; it determines how your clothes look on you.  It should feel comfortable and the center bridge should be flush against your breast bone, not your breast tissue. The back shouldn't pinch, ride up or be too far down your back. Straps should be secure. There should be no gaping or rippling in the cup. Definitely no boob spillage!"
