Who invented the bra?
It is said that the first bra in the world was invented by an American woman named Fermari. 19 14 One day, in order to become the queen of the Paris ball, Fermari had a whim and made a simple bra with two handkerchiefs and ribbons to support her breasts, which really aroused the strong interest of the participants in the ball. The owner of a tights company bought the patent at a high price. Since then, the bra came out and soon spread widely among women all over the world, becoming one of the necessities of women's health care and body shaping. Another way of saying this is that as early as 1859, a man named Henry in Brooklyn, new york applied for a patent for his "symmetrical spherical bra", which was regarded as the embryonic form of the bra. 1870, a tailor in Boston also advertised in the newspaper to sell "chest pads" for women with big breasts. At 1907, paul poiret, a French designer who specializes in designing robes, declared, "In the name of freedom, I announced the decline of corsets and the rise of bras." Although I don't know what he designed, he is considered as the inventor of the bra. In the same year, the word "bra" appeared in the American version of Vogue, and bra began to be familiar and accepted by the public. It is said that the word "bra" first appeared in the American Fashion Monthly of 1907 and was first used in Britain of 1908. From 19 13, there are pictures of bras, which are said to be underwear that can support the chest independently. It hangs on the shoulder with a belt. Due to the persistent view of women's perfect posture in the late Victorian era and Edward VII era, the widespread promotion of bras was delayed. In the years between the two world wars, if the bra made women's breasts look like spilled milk, then the invention of the bra did restore the proper posture of the breasts to some extent. Not only that, but the appearance of bras also means a complete change in the way you dress. 1928, new york Fashion Magazine published an advertisement about "light underwear".
