Abstract

An inner bra cup includes a connecting portion on an outer end thereof for connecting with a shoulder strap. A top edge of the inner bra cup has a recessed portion and a convex portion. The convex portion includes a nipple covering section above a line passing through a lowest point of an inner side of the convex portion and a lowest point of the recessed portion. A distance from a highest point of the nipple covering section to the line is at least 2.5 cm when the nipple covering section is in a flattened state. The nipple covering section includes a heavier, thicker section that covers a nipple of a bosom of a wearer and that has a thickness of 1-9 mm. The nipple covering section is in intimate contact with the bosom of the wearer.

Hence, the top edge 10 of the bra 1 cannot be in intimate contact with the bosom 11 of the wearer, as illustrated in FIG. 1 of the drawings. Namely, a gap 12 exists between the top edge 10 of the bra 1 and the bosom 11 of the wearer, which may cause exposu...
