In some form or another, bras have been around since the time of the Greeks. They were first made to support the breasts for the comfort of the woman, but now they come in different styles to shape the breasts. There are cleavage-enhancing bras and push-up bras that are used to shape the breasts.
Even as recently as 35 years ago, nuns told Catholic school girls they couldn't wear bras. Instead, they had to tie tight strips of fabric around their breasts to make them look smaller.

Bras come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, from small, soft bras for 10-year-old girls to very supportive underwire bras for women with fuller figures.
Did you know that 90% of women feel uncomfortable in their bras? Research has shown that a similar number of women have bras that don't fit well because they were never properly measured.
There are many different styles of bras. Manufacturers have been slow to make a wide range of bras for women with large breasts, so it's hard for them to find ones that are both pretty and feminine.
Many of the designs of sexy bras are made with men in mind. You can now buy bras that are see-through, bras that look wet, and bras that don't look like they're there at all. Peep-hole bras let the breasts show.
The design of bras has also changed to fit dresses and tops with no straps or backs. After all, it doesn't make sense to buy an evening dress with a low back and no back and then ruin the look by putting bra straps on the shoulders and back.
Sports bras are basically skimpy tops with a lot of stretch and no seams that rub. They are made to support the breasts and keep them from moving around when you exercise. They come with different levels of support for different levels of activity.
