A Sweetly Sexy Bra & Panty Set

Julie GersteinFebruary 8, 2012 //

I’m not a particularly girly-girl when it comes to underthings, and thongs scare the crap out of me. I prefer full coverage on my butt, thank you very much. But just because a girl wants her ass to be fully swathed in fabric, doesn’t mean she wants to forgo sexiness. That’s why I’m totally feeling this underwear set from Pins and Needles. Cute, but not too frilly, retro, but not to the point of looking costume-y, this floral bra and panty set feels totally fresh. [Bra, $24; Panty, $16, Urban Outfitters]

If you head to the store looking for a nude bra, you’ll see shades of cream, tan, and light pink: in other words, the “nude” options are tailored predominantly to Caucasian skin tones. Tara Raines thinks it’s about time bra makers embraced a more diverse definition of nude, which is why she started the “What’s Your Nude?” campaign, and chose February 1st (the first day of African American History Month) as the official day of action. Want to support the cause? Contact your favorite bra maker and ask for more brown bras. Log on to Facebook and like the “What’s Your Nude” page (facebook.com/morebrownbras). And most importantly, spread the word! As Raines told Women’s Wear Daily: “Women of color deserve to look and feel sexy, and a big part of that is looking like ourselves.” [Madame Noire]

Yes, you are seeing this correctly. That is a woman bungee jumping into a sea of cleavage. In fact, lots of London ladies took the plunge. It’s all part of Wonderbra’s campaign to encourage you to buy their new Ultimate Plunge bra — the deepest cleavage bra invented. Because flaunting your cleave can be scary, but not as scary as taking a flying leap off of a crane and into boobs. An image of the model Adriana Cernanova was projected onto London’s Battersea Power Station especially for the occasion. i don’t know about you, but the “cutesy-ness” of this little stunt doesn’t change my mind in the slightest about bungee jumping. Nor does it motivate  me to purchase this bra. I was never scared of my cleavage in the first place. I don’t have any. [Daily Mail UK]

“[It] was like a movie … In disastrous moments you do the strangest things … I started to put on a bra and thought ‘that’s going to take too long’ so off came the bra on came the T-shirt … I grabbed the children and I picked up granny.”

– Kate Winslet tells Graham Norton about her brave decision to go braless while fleeing the fire at the Branson estate. There are moments in life when bras are totally irrelevant. This was one of them. Saving lives does not require a bra. [NY Post]

For me, dating and bra shopping are analogous. I enter both scenarios with excited anticipation and high hopes of finding a good fit only to be met with similar disappointments. The attractive ones often end up making me uncomfortable. The seemingly sensible ones offer little support. Usually, both end up in either a figurative or quite literal let down. Dating and bras; my success rate with both has led to some serious lamenting with lady friends. “Will I ever find the one?”

File under: Problems we didn’t even know we could have. The La Decollette bra doesn’t look like a normal bra. It’s built with the bra cups cut out, and a wide swathe of fabric running up the middle of your chest. And you don’t wear it when you’re out and about — it’s to be worn at night, as a way of preventing something called “cleavage wrinkles.” Cleavage wrinkles are caused when your girls are pushed together too much in an uncontrolled way, so the La Decollette is supposed to manage their spacing while you sleep. Now that that problem’s solved, can we move on to finding a solution for hat head? [La Decollette] Keep reading »

What The Heck Does An L-Cup Bra Look Like?

Jessica WakemanJanuary 21, 2011 //

Bra sizes are about to hit the second half of the alphabet: meet the L cup. Yes, the L cup! Lingerie company Bravissimo is now selling the first-ever L cup, apparently, after the the KK cup they introduced two years ago failed to meet their well-endowed customers’ needs. The L cup fits a 28-inch back size, comes in black, nude, white and petal pink and in my opinion, it’s very classy. It’s a shame that model Sheyla Hershey, who allegedly held the record for the world’s largest breasts with silicone 38KKKs until they had to be removed because they were killing her, wouldn’t fit into them anymore! If there are L cups walking amongst us, aren’t they in possession of the world’s biggest boobs now? I’m so confused. [Daily Mail UK] Keep reading »

Starry, Starry Bra

Winona Dimeo-EdigerOctober 14, 2010 //

This Starry Night bra is currently just an awesome art project (medium listed: “acrylic on bra”), but I’d be first in line to buy one if they ever hit stores. Not only do I love Van Gogh’s work, but it would go perfectly with my Mona Lisa thong. [via deviantART] Keep reading »

Bras On Roller Coasters? Someone’s Got A Fetish For It

Jessica WakemanAugust 31, 2010 //

This Ultimo Bra commercial of women testing their brassieres for “durability and lift support” on roller coasters is so strange you can’t look away. But you know some dude was whacking off to flying cleavage. Do you think they wiped the seats down afterwards? [BuzzFeed] Keep reading »

Do You Want That Sensual No-Bra Look?

Amelia McDonell-ParryMay 12, 2010 //

Want to turn on the headlights and achieve that “cold weather look” even when it’s 80 degrees out, without sacrificing the support of a bra? Back in the ’70s (or is this an ’80s ad? I can’t tell) that dream could be realized in the form of the “nipple bra,” an over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder with built-in hard nips. I don’t believe they sell this anymore, but if anyone finds a modern version, let me know! [via BuzzFeed] Keep reading »
