Before the birth of the modern bra, European women had worn corsets for hundreds of years, while in ancient China, women wore belly pockets. Modern bras, generally believed to have started in 1907, flourished in the 50s of the last century (after the end of World War II) and gradually became one of the most representative daily necessities of modern women.
Its birth is not accidental, its background is the improvement of the social status of modern women, women are no longer hidden in purdah, husband and children male dependents, but more and more involved in agriculture, industry, commerce, scientific research, sports, politics, military and other fields. In this process, such a product is needed - in the work and life can not only make the movement more convenient, avoid the embarrassment of agitation and shaking, but also protect the female chest from injury.
Its prosperity is due to the rapid development of scientific and technological progress - structural mechanics, ergonomics and materials science, and it is also the product of the combination of human pursuit of health and beauty and scientific and technological progress.
The popularity of modern bras in Chinese mainland is a matter after the reform and opening up, thanks to the demographic dividend, the speed of development of China's underwear industry far exceeds the development speed of underwear education. Therefore, there is a very interesting phenomenon - although most people wear bras, the public still knows very little about bras, mothers do not understand, schools do not teach, and the media misleads. Many people start after the chest has developed and have been confused for many years.
It is precisely because of the lack of understanding that most people have never seriously thought about - what do women wear bras for?
Is it for shame or for sexiness? Is it to protect the chest or for comfort? Is it for beauty or for health?
In order to appear big and grooved, some people wear a gathering bra all year round; In order to improve the deformation of the chest, some people choose a tightly wrapped adjustable bra; Some people wear sports bras every day in order to show off their small breasts or to make pictures convenient; Some people only dare to wear underwired bras because of fear of disease; Some people think that wearing a bra is a bondage, and simply let go of yourself and be a liberal.
And interestingly, many people have worn bras for many years, but they have never picked up a soft ruler to measure their bust data. When choosing a size, they usually rely on the shopping guide to visually inspect the clothes, and then buy according to the size of the shopping guide for a long time.
I believe that many people have had such an experience: when buying a bra, try it on with the help of a shopping guide, and feel that it is quite suitable, but slowly you will feel that it is not so suitable, and even feel very uncomfortable. So much so that when bras are mentioned, most people's first feeling is "uncomfortable", "restrained", "uncomfortable".
As a result, 90% of women are suffering from bras instead of enjoying the benefits of bras, not only with a poor wearing experience, but also with the continuous aggravation of various breast problems such as sagging, enlargement, and side breasts.
