    What's interesting is that despite the time period, it's not trying to make the bust look like a mono-bosom. Does this make it the grandaddy of all bras?

    I was struck by the fact that it was designed for "Stout" women. And all the work it must have taken for these gals to get dressed. This piece alone has straps and lacing, and who knows what all. And it held up your skirt and hose.
    And I don't even want to think about laundry day.
