- This counteracts the own weight of the breasts especially in the sideways position.
- the measures according to the invention can also be implemented for example in a top.
- both ends of the extension cup part can be detachably or non-detachably attached.
- the features of claim 2 are provided so that based on the center support effect region, a detachable fastening at an outward pull occurs.
- the features of claim 3 are provided. This enables an optimally adjusted holding or supporting of the respective breast in sideways position of the wearer during sleeping or resting.
- a further preferred embodiment of the outer garment results from the features of claim 4 , according to which an additional support is provided, in particular in a diagonal direction which lies between the directions which are predetermined by one of the extension cup parts and the other extension cup part.
- an additional support is provided, in particular in a diagonal direction which lies between the directions which are predetermined by one of the extension cup parts and the other extension cup part.
- the breasts are not only supported or held in a sideways sleeping or resting position but also for example in supine sleeping or resting positions for preventing the formation of wrinkles.
- An embodiment of the additional extension cup part results from the features of claim 5 .
- the one or the other extension cup part is adjusted to the shape and size of the breasts of the different wearers, to thereby individually select the wearing comfort.
- the outer garment has an optimal fit which does not interfere during sleep.
- the strength of the support force for the breasts can be increased or loosened by individual adjustment.
