Brassieres

Abstract

An improved brassiere is disclosed. The brassiere comprises two bra cups, chest bands, an upper side wing and a down side wing, each of the bra cups including an internal layer, an external layer and an elastic layer located between the internal layer and the external layer. An arc-shaped wire steel is embedded in the elastic layer of each of the bra cups. The wire steel will not apply a pressure onto the wearer's breast directly because of the buffering of the elastic layer, thus the blood circulation in the breast will not be impaired. The risk of suffering from breast-related diseases is thus reduced. Preferably, the chest bands of the brassiere are consisted only of the internal layer and the external layer without the elastic layer, leading to a longer service life of the brassiere.

1 . A brassiere comprising two bra cups, chest bands, an upper side wing and a down side wing, each of said bra cups including an internal layer, an external layer and an elastic layer located between the internal layer and the external layer, wherein an arc-shaped wire steel is embedded in said elastic layer of each of said bra cups. 
     
     
         2 . The brassiere of  claim 1 , wherein the arc-shaped wire steel is covered by a separating layer, so that no direct friction is occurred between the wire steel and the elastic layer. 
     
     
         3 . The brassiere of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic layer in each bra cup has a diminishing thickness from center to periphery. 
     
     
         4 . The brassiere of  claim 1 , wherein the bra cups, the chest bands, the upper side wing and the down side wing are integrally formed. 
     
     
         5 . The brassiere of  claim 1 , wherein the chest bands are constructed only by the internal layer and the external layer without the elastic layer. 
     
     
         6 . The brassiere of  claim 1 , wherein the brassiere is a seamless brassiere that incorporates little or no stitching at all.
