The Invention Of Lingerie
The human mind is a package of inventions and experiments.
Everything in this world has its own history and story. Well, do
you know that lingeries have a long history too!
1866
Silk and wire were used to create the first-ever bra, which was
introduced in Great Britain.
1869
Frenchwoman Herminie Cadolle redesigned the corset by
dividing it into two pieces and creating corselet-gorge (which
supported the breasts) and soutien-gorge (a bra with straps).
1907
In the history of bras, the word "brassiere" first appeared in
American Vogue. It was added to the Oxford English Dictionary
a year later.
1910
19-year-old socialite from New York, Mary Phelps Jacobs sew 2
silk handkerchiefs with pink silk ribbon and cord. Hence,
"backless style" was created! She later sold the patent to
Warner Brothers Corset Company for $1,500.
