Bra Story

The word “bra” (Büstenhalter) is of German origin and literally translates as “female breast” (Büste) and “holder” (Halter).

The first mentions of bras are traced back in the annals of the period of Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece. In those days, women tried with all sorts of tricks to emphasize beauty or, on the contrary, to hide their breasts. For example, residents of Hellas wore long dresses with wide belts under their breasts, which favorably emphasized the beauty and attractiveness of the female body. In ancient Rome in those days were popular skin dressings that lifted the chest. But the Egyptian women, on the contrary, tried to hide their breasts under multi-layered and shapeless clothes.

In Europe, women wore corsets until around the 16th century. And only in 1887 in England, the first prototype of a modern bra appears, which resembles two cup-shaped indentations with ribbons. Approximately two years later, Ermin Kadol, a Parisian modist known at the time, reduced the corset by simply cutting off the lower part of it and called its creation a “bodice for the chest.”

The years 1912-1913 became significant in the history of the appearance of the bra. First, Sigmund Lindauer, a German manufacturer of women's underwear, removes hard bones from corsets and suggests wearing a bra on a naked body, and not on a bottom shirt, as it was previously accepted. A year later, American Mary Phelps Jacob at the household level created a bodice with an open back. Mary was the grand diva of those times, and her gorgeous dress with open back just needed an original underwear.

The history of the bra has a lot of different memorable dates.

Every year, designers of women's underwear delight the beautiful half of humanity with new and original models. To date, the world-renowned firm Victoria’s Secret is the undisputed leader in creating exclusive and sophisticated underwear. In 2015, this brand released the most expensive bra in the world - the Fantasy Bra model. The cost of such a bodice, which deservedly can be called a work of art, is equal to 10 million dollars, because it has about 4,200 precious stones.
