Abstract

An armature for a brassiere for a woman have a chest area. A breast projecting from the breast area and a transition area transitioning between the chest area and proximal, intermediate, and distal portions of the breast. The transition area defines a continuous contour. The armature includes an underwire having a distal portion configured to be positioned adjacent the distal portion of the breast, a proximal portion configured to be positioned adjacent the proximal portion of the breast, and an intermediate portion configured to be positioned adjacent the intermediate portion of the breast. The underwire has an unsprung state configured to match the contour of the transition area.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a supportive undergarment for women, and more particularly, to a frame support device for a female bra. Background technique [0002] A bra is usually worn by a woman under her outerwear to support her breasts. Brassiere, commonly known as brassiere to consumers, mainly includes cups supporting the breasts and side wings, which are connected to the cups and wrap around the upper body of women to maintain the brassiere on women's bodies. Some bra designs also use an armature, or cord under the cup, to provide additional support for the breasts. However, some lower wire shapes may cause pinching, drilling, and other discomfort after the bra is fastened on the woman's body, in part because the lower wires are not specifically shaped to fit the user's breasts. Additionally, some underwire and side flap configurations may result in an unsightly bulge of the cup when the bra is worn by a woman. Therefore, it is necessary t...
