Brassiere
Abstract
A brassiere includes a left cup, a right cup, and a bra body, wherein a cup size of the left cup cavity is different from a cup size of the right cup cavity. The bra body is for selectively retaining the left cup and the right cup in position to form a brassiere structure, in such a manner that a wearer with asymmetrical breasts is able to individually select the left and right cups according to the left and right breast sizes respectively to optimize the support of the breasts of the wearer for supporting the weight of the breasts and positioning the left and right cups covering left and right breasts of wearer respectively.

7 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 5 , wherein said bra body further comprises two length-adjustable shoulder straps extending from said left and right cups to said back connecting bands respectively for evenly distributing the weight of the breast of the wearer on the shoulder thereof.
8 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 6 , wherein said bra body further comprises two length-adjustable shoulder straps extending from said left and right cups to said back connecting bands respectively for evenly distributing the weight of the breast of the wearer on the shoulder thereof.
9 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 6 , wherein said back connecting bands are detachably coupled with said outer edges of said left and right cups respectively.
10 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 8 , wherein said back connecting bands are detachably coupled with said outer edges of said left and right cups respectively.
11 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 8 , wherein said shoulder straps are detachably coupled with said left and right cups and said back connecting bands respectively.
12 . The brassiere, as recited in claim 10 , wherein said shoulder straps are detachably coupled with said left and right cups and said back connecting bands respectively.
13 . A method of making a brassiere, comprising the steps of:
(a) making a plurality of conic shaped left cups, wherein each of said left cups has a convex front cup face and a concave rear cup face defining a left cup cavity within said concave rear cup face, wherein said left cup cavities have different cup sizes; (b) making a plurality of conic shaped right cups, wherein each of said right cups has a convex front cup face and a concave rear cup face defining a right cup cavity within said concave rear cup face, wherein said right cup cavities have different cup sizes; and (c) detachably coupling one of said left cups with one of said right cups via a bra body to form a brassiere structure, in such a manner that a wearer with asymmetrical breasts is able to individually select said left and right cups according to the left and right breast sizes respectively to optimize the support of the breasts of the wearer.
14 . The method as recited in claim 13 wherein, in the steps (a) and (b), said convex front cup faces of said left and right cups are symmetrical to keep a symmetrical front size of said brassiere structure when said left and right cups are worn.
15 . The method, as recited in claim 14 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of retaining a distance between said corresponding left cup and said corresponding right cup by detachably coupling an inner edge of said left cup with an inner edge of said right cup, wherein first and second bridge fasteners are provided at said inner edges of said left and right cups respectively and are detachably fastened with each other to retain a distance between said left and right cups.
16 . The method, as recited in claim 15 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of retaining said left and right cups in position with respect to the wearer body by extending two length-adjustable back connecting bands from two outer edges of said left and right cups respectively and detachably fastening two back fasteners at two free end portions of said back connecting bands respectively with each other to form a loop structure for fitting around the underbust of the wearer.
17 . The method, as recited in claim 16 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of extending two length-adjustable shoulder straps from said left and right cups to said back connecting bands respectively for evenly distributing the weight of the breast of the wearer on the shoulder thereof.
18 . The method, as recited in claim 17 , wherein said back connecting bands are detachably coupled with said outer edges of said left and right cups respectively, wherein said shoulder straps are detachably coupled with said left and right cups and said back connecting bands respectively.
19 . A method of purchasing a brassiere for a wearer with asymmetrical breasts, comprising the steps of:
(a) selecting a left cup with a left cup cavity matching with a left breast size of the wearer; (b) selecting a right cup with a right cup cavity matching with a right breast size of the wearer; and (c) retaining said left and right cups in position via a bra body to form a brassiere structure for the wearer enabling to fittingly wear, such that the wearer with asymmetrical breasts is able to individually select said left and right cups according to the left and right breast sizes respectively to optimize the support of the breasts of the wearer.
20 . The method as recited in claim 19 wherein, in the steps (a) and (b), each of said left and right bra cups has a convex front cup face that said convex front cup faces of said left and right cups are symmetrical to keep a symmetrical front size of said brassiere structure when said left and right cups are worn.
21 . The method, as recited in claim 20 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of retaining a distance between said corresponding left cup and said corresponding right cup by detachably coupling an inner edge of said left cup with an inner edge of said right cup, wherein first and second bridge fasteners are provided at said inner edges of said left and right cups respectively and are detachably fastened with each other to retain a distance between said left and right cups.
22 . The method, as recited in claim 21 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of retaining said left and right cups in position with respect to the wearer body by extending two length-adjustable back connecting bands from two outer edges of said left and right cups respectively and detachably fastening two back fasteners at two free end portions of said back connecting bands respectively with each other to form a loop structure for fitting around the underbust of the wearer.
23 . The method, as recited in claim 22 , wherein the step (c) further comprises a step of extending two length-adjustable shoulder straps from said left and right cups to said back connecting bands respectively for evenly distributing the weight of the breast of the wearer on the shoulder thereof.
24 . The method, as recited in claim 23 , wherein said back connecting bands are detachably coupled with said outer edges of said left and right cups respectively, wherein said shoulder straps are detachably coupled with said left and right cups and said back connecting bands respectively.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
