Benefits of technology

The present invention is a composite garment with a liner that supports and enhances the bust while smoothing and elongating the bodice of the dress. The bodice support gently cinches the midriff and abdomen areas of a woman's body, making them appear smoother and smaller. The liner takes up space inside the special occasion dress and will not necessarily make a smaller dress size fit. The bodice support is attached to the top edge of the special occasion dress, allowing for comfort and freedom of movement while retaining its placement on the body and within the dress. The outer garment hangs free from the bodice ensuring that no stress points or stretching of the fabric or seams is created and that no stays are visible from the outside of the dress.

Problems solved by technology

The liner including the bodice support takes up space inside the special occasion dress and therefore, will not necessarily make a smaller dress size fit.
