The lower portion of each cup is constructed to generally follow the inframammary crease of a respective woman's breast. The top of the upper portion of each cup includes a dart. A generally U-shaped support piece composed of an elongated strip of elastic is attached to the bra along the bottoms and sides of the lower portion of the cups. The support piece is made of fabric which is less elastic than the fabric of the cups. Bands made of low-stretch material extend from the sides of the lower portion of the cups and include generally V-shaped inserts cut on the bias in the tops of the bands. The inserts are made of fabric which is more elastic than the fabric of the bands.
