Benefits of technology

The modular brassierre is a bra made up of separate breast cups and a separate back band that can be connected together using front fasteners. There are also two separate strap assemblies that connect to each breast cup and the back band. This design allows for easy customization and adjustability.

Problems solved by technology

A significant issue with conventional brassieres is the difficulty in finding the right size if a wearer is not typical or common sized.
In particular, buxomly women (D+ sizes) have significant difficulty finding brassieres that fit and are ascetically pleasing while at the same time provide adequate support.
Straps on bras often slide off a wearer's shoulders in part due to the fact that the position of the straps on the back band is not adjustable.
There are issues with different individual breast sizes and shapes, and brassieres for different wearing occasions, such as a brassiere suitable for use with a strapless dress.
The overall result is a significant lack of suitable existing commercially available brassieres, regardless of the manufacturer, the cost of the brassiere or the number of individual brassieres purchased.
