[0020] Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

[0021] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a bra 100 according to the first embodiment. This bra 100 includes a wire part 1. The wire part 1 contacts along the lower part of the bust and supports the bust from below. The wire part 1 may be configured by covering a core made of, for example, metal or plastic with cloth and may have an elongated shape. Note that the bra 100 only needs to have a support part (an example of which is the wire part 1) that supports the bust from below, and there is no limitation on its specific shape or material.

[0022] However, a normal bra has a bra cup that is above the wire part 1 and wraps around and supports the bust, but in this embodiment, such a bra cup is not provided. This is one of the features of this embodiment, and thereby the bra 100 has an effect of promoting bust growth.

[0023] As long as it is a member other than the bra cup, the bra 100 may include members provided in a normal bra, such as side belts, hooks, straps, etc. It can be said that the bra 100 according to this embodiment is a normal bra excluding the bra cup.

[0024] FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a state in which the bra 100 is worn. Since the bra 100 does not have a bra cup, the bust is supported by the wire part 1. That is, while a downward force is applied to the bust by gravity, the wire part 1 supports the bust upward. As a result, a shearing force is generated between the wire part 1 and the bust (the tip side of the bust from the wire part 1). Therefore, in the part of the bust supported by the wire part 1 (the part in contact with the wire part 1), the flow of lymph and blood deteriorates, and swelling (edema is formed), causing the bust to become larger. The thinner the wire part 1 is, the greater such an effect is.

[0025] Figs. 3A and 3B are schematic views of the bra 101 according to the second embodiment. In addition to the configuration of the bra 100 in Fig. 1, this bra 101 includes a pressing member 2. The pressing member 2 is provided above the wire portion 1, contacts along the upper part of the bust, and applies a downward force to the bust. The pressing member 2 preferably has elasticity and is, for example, made of rubber.

[0026] As a specific configuration example of the pressing member 2, the pressing member 2 includes a left pressing member 21, a right pressing member 22, and a detachable member 23.

[0027] The left pressing member 21 applies a downward force to the left bust, and the right pressing member 22 applies a downward force to the right bust.

[0028] The detachable member 23 is provided, for example, in the end regions of the left pressing member 21 and the right pressing member 22, and detaches the left pressing member 21 and the right pressing member 22. The detachable member 23 is, for example, a hook (Fig. 3A shows the state where the hook is removed, and Fig. 3B shows the state where the hook is fastened). It is desirable that a plurality of hooks are provided so that the lengths of the left pressing member 21 and the right pressing member 22 can be adjusted. Further, the detachable member 23 may be a hook-and-loop fastener (e.g., Velcro (registered trademark) or hook-and-loop tape (registered trademark)) instead of a hook.

[0029] Note that, as shown in the figure, the pressing member 2 may be integrated with the wire portion 1. The integration here includes not only the mode in which the pressing member 2 and the wire portion 1 are directly attached to each other, but also the mode in which they are attached via another member. As a specific example, one end side of the left pressing member 21 is attached to the left side of the wire portion 1. It can also be said that one end side of the left pressing member 21 extends from the left side of the wire portion 1. The same applies to the right pressing member 22.

[0030] Further, the pressing member 2 may be a separate member from the wire portion 1. In this case, the pressing member 2 may be configured to be wound around the chest. Furthermore, the pressing member 2 may be detachable from the wire portion 1.

[0031] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a state in which the bra 101 is worn. When such a bra 101 is worn, a downward force is applied to the bust not only by gravity but also by the pressing member 2. Therefore, the effect of increasing the bust is enhanced.

[0032] By wearing (or having someone wear) the bras 100 and 101 as described above, the bust can be enlarged, and a large bust can be created.

[0033] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the effect of promoting bust growth by wearing the bra 101 according to the second embodiment. The following test was conducted on five subjects.

[0034] First, the bust size (the difference between the top and the under. The same applies hereinafter) was measured before wearing the bra 101 and used as the reference size.

[0035] Thereafter, the subjects were allowed to spend 28 to 34 days (about 4 weeks) without wearing the bra 101, and the change in the bust size from the reference size was measured. The measurement was performed under the condition that the body weight did not decrease and did not increase by more than 1 kg. The results are shown in the left bar graph of FIG. 5. The numerical values above the bar graph indicate the mean ± standard deviation.

[0036] Thereafter, the subjects were allowed to spend 28 to 34 days (about 4 weeks) after wearing the bra 101, and the change in the bust size from the reference size was measured. The results are shown in the right bar graph of FIG. 5. The numerical values above the bar graph indicate the mean ± standard deviation.

[0037] A paired t-test was performed using these mean values and standard deviations to examine the effect of promoting bust growth of the bra 101. As a result, it was found that the change in the bust size was significantly different between the two groups with a p-value smaller than 0.001. Therefore, it was shown that the bust grows significantly by wearing the bra 101.

[0038] Based on the above description, those skilled in the art may be able to conceive of additional effects and various modifications of the present invention. However, the aspects of the present invention are not limited to the individual embodiments described above. Various additions, changes, and partial deletions are possible without departing from the conceptual ideas and spirit of the present invention derived from the content defined in the claims and their equivalents.

[0039] For example, what is described as one member in this specification (including what is depicted as one member in the drawings) may be realized by a plurality of members. Conversely, what is described as a plurality of members in this specification (including what is depicted as a plurality of members in the drawings) may be realized by one member.

[0040] Also, not all of the matters described in this specification are essential requirements. In particular, matters described in this specification but not described in the claims can be regarded as arbitrary additional matters.

[0041] It should also be noted that the applicant of the present application only knows the publicly known inventions described in the documents in the "Prior Art Documents" column of this specification, and the present invention is not necessarily intended to solve the problems in the publicly known inventions of the same documents. The problems to be solved by the present invention should be determined in consideration of the entire specification. For example, in this specification, if there is a description that a predetermined effect is achieved by a specific configuration, it can also be said that the problem that is the reverse of the predetermined effect is solved. However, it is not necessarily the intention that such a specific configuration is an essential requirement.
