BACKGROUND
Field of the Invention
-
Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to garments, and more specifically, to undergarments and their accessories that can be worn with tank tops or any tops or dresses that has shoulder straps or just strapless for quick style changes as per external requirements.
Description of the Related Art
-
Undergarments may provide several functions, such as shaping the wearer's body, supporting parts of the body during exercise, and offering protection to outer clothing. Undergarments can include everything from men's vests and women's brassieres or bras to their underwear.
-
Wearing a garment to support the chests or breasts may date back to ancient Greece. Women wore an apodesmos, later stēhodesmē, mastodesmos and mastodeton, all meaning “breast-band,” a band of wool or linen that was wrapped across the chests or breasts and tied or pinned at the back. Fragments of linen textiles found in East Tyrol in Austria dated to between 1440 and 1485 are believed to have been bras. Two of them had cups made from two pieces of linen sewn with fabric that extended to the bottom of the torso with a row of six eyelets for fastening with a lace or string. One had two shoulder straps and was decorated with lace in the cleavage. From the 16th century, the undergarments of wealthier women in the Western world were dominated by the corset, which pushed the breasts upwards. In the later 19th century, clothing designers began experimenting with alternatives, splitting the corset into multiple parts: a girdle-like restraining device for the lower torso, and devices that suspended the breasts from the shoulder to the upper torso.
-
Women have played a large part in the design and manufacture of various kinds of undergarments, such as bras, accounting for half the patents filed. The Dresden-based German Christine Hardt patented the first modern brassiere in 1899. Sigmund Lindauer from Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt, Germany, developed a brassiere for mass production in 1912 and patented it in 1913. It was mass-produced by Mechanischen Trikotweberei. Ludwig Maier and Cie. in Boblingen, Germany. In the United States, Mary Phelps Jacob received a patent in 1914 for the first brassiere design that is recognized as the basis for modern bras. Mass production in the early-20th century made the garment widely available to women in the United States, England, Western Europe, and other countries influenced by western fashion. Metal shortages in World War I encouraged the end of the corset. Bras were initially manufactured by small production companies and supplied to retailers. The term “cup” was not used until 1916, and manufacturers relied on stretchable cups to accommodate different sized breasts. Women with larger breasts had the choice of long-line bras, built-up backs, wedge-shaped breast pads/inserts between the cups, wider straps, firm bands under the cup, and light boning.
-
People wear different types of undergarments. Undergarments can generally be differentiated as having an upper body piece and/or a lower body piece. Some undergarments cover both the upper body and the lower body as part of one garment. Various undergarments for the upper body include varieties of vests and bras. Vests and bras come in different shapes, sizes, and types, such as tank tops, half sleeve vests, sport bras, lingerie, swimsuits, pasties, strapless bras, push-up bras, compression vests and bras, etc. On the other hand, various undergarments for the lower body include varieties of underwear, shorts, and pants, such as briefs, Spanx®, leggings, shorts, boyshorts, G-strings, thongs, C-strings, bikinis, etc. Typically, the vests and bras are form-fitting undergarments that perform the function of supporting a man's chest or a woman's breasts. The underwear, shorts, and pants are also form-fitting and perform the function of supporting the wearer's hips and genitals. Swimsuits, camisoles, backless dresses, shirts, t-shirts, pants, shorts, etc. and other garments, may be made with built-in support that function as undergarments.
-
There are multiple solutions that have presented in prior art regarding proper support to multiple body parts. However, from prior art research no similar patent is found which support any individual especially females to wear them along with their garments and give them proper look as per their requirements.
-
The inventor has designed a new assembly where the top ends right under the bust, covers the back, cut out on the chest area and subtle shoulder pads to give a chic look. It can be worn by women to give them professional look at the go without making any additional effort.
-
None of the previous inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed. Hence, the inventor of the present invention proposes to resolve and surmount existent technical difficulties to eliminate the aforementioned shortcomings of prior art.
