Engineered push up insert
Kidney-shaped push up insert including first lobe and second lobe is provided. Notch is formed in top side between first lobe and second lobe. Insert has depression formed adjacent top side extending towards notch. Second main surface opposes first main surface. Second main surface is substantially smooth arcuate-shaped surface. First lobe has narrower width between top side and bottom side than second lobe, and second lobe is thicker between first main surface and second main surface than first lobe. Ratio of maximum thickness between first main surface and second main surface to maximum length between opposing ends of first lobe and second lobe is less than about 9 and/or ratio of depth of notch from a straight line connecting first lobe and second lobe along top side of insert to width of insert from top side to bottom side at depth of notch is less than about 4.
BRA ENGINEERING
Brassiere including a first wing and a second wing, each wing including a first end and a second end. A pair of cups is utilized. Each cup has an inner contour having a diameter size as well as an outer contour having an outer diameter defined by an outer diameter size, and an outer apex having a projection distance from the outer diameter. A filling material is provided between the inner contour and the outer contour and being located on each cup so as to, when the brassiere is worn, press against the rib cage and expand and spread the outer diameter. Wherein for a cup-to-cup range of more than 12 inches and less than 14 inches, the diameter size and the projection distance have values that satisfy an equation as follows: y=0.69x+11.24, where y=the diameter size and x=the projection distance.
Methods for absorbing moisture around breasts
Method of absorbing moisture around breasts of a person by inserting a bra liner made at least partly of absorbent material under a breast support between the skin of the chest and skin of each of right and left breasts, and partly between the right and left breasts. The bra liner includes a left portion, a right portion and a central portion between the left and right portions, the central portion including a flap partly separated from the left and right portions. The flap is folded about a center line of the body to thereby interpose the folded flap between the right and left breasts and maintain the right and left breasts out of contact with one another.
NATURAL FIBER MOLDED GARMENT
A molded fabric laminate includes first and second fabric layers, each fabric layer including at least 80% natural fibers, and a patterned layer of cured shape memory elastomer molded between the first and second fabric layers. The patterned layer of the cured shape memory elastomer is a continuous layer of the cured shape memory elastomer defining a multiplicity of openings per square centimeter of the patterned layer, where the openings are free of the cured shape memory elastomer. Making the molded fabric laminate includes disposing a patterned layer of an uncured shape memory elastomer on a first fabric layer, contacting the patterned layer with a second fabric layer to yield a fabric sub-assembly, contacting the fabric sub-assembly with a surface of a heated mold, and molding the fabric sub-assembly to conform to the shape of the mold. The molded fabric laminate is typically part of a garment.
Brassiere with a concealing element
A brassiere having cups, straps and elements for covering the wearer's breast tip region, wherein the elements are respectively arranged on the cups' inner side facing the wearer's body, and the elements only partly cover the cups' inner side facing the wearer's body.
LIGHT WEIGHT SUPPORTIVE BRA
A breast supporting garment such as a shirt, bra or similar garment has a body section having a front bust section for supporting a woman's breasts. A band of elastic material is provided under the bust section for shape and support. Another band of elastic material is provided around the bottom of the garment and helps keep it from riding up. The bust section of the garment should be formed from two layers of fabric adhered with elastomeric adhesive. The fabric should be free cut knit fabric having a high level of spandex. The bra will be lightweight and free feeling, as if it is not there.
Breast Shape and Upper Torso Enhancement Tool
A method of making a breast or chest mask that includes enhancing a bust size of a three dimensional (3D) image of a user that illustrates a current body shape, comparing the enhanced 3D image to the current body shape 3D image and subtracting the bust size of the enhanced 3D image from the current body shape 3D image to produce a breast mask product with dimensions based on the compared 3D images.
Sustainable bra garment and improved bio-based open cell foam pad portions
A sustainable bra garment that includes first and second cup portions that are formed of one or more recycled flexible materials and having first and second cushioning support pads formed of a bio-based foam material The first and second cushioning support pads are configured to be coupled with the first and second cup portions, respectively. The front surface of each pad has a generally convex shape and the back surface of each pad has a generally concave shape. Each of the pads is formed of a bio-based material, such as a sugar cane-based open cell foam that has hardness and density values that provide both cushioning and support to breasts of a wearer of the sustainable bra garment. The cushioning support pads may be used with a bra garment or with other garments such as swimwear and other apparel where bra support pads can be incorporated.
Garment with absorbent pads and method of manufacture thereof
An absorbent garment has a pair of breast cups, each having a layer of moisture-wicking one-way transport material, an inner layer of absorbent terry cloth, an inner layer of foam, and an outer layer of water-resistant material. An inner face of the absorbent terry cloth is fully laminated to an outer face of the one-way transport material. An outer face of the absorbent terry cloth is fully laminated to an inner face of the foam. An outer edge of the one-way transport material is coupled to an outer edge of the foam. An outer face of the foam is fully laminated to an inner face of the water-resistant material. The absorbent terry cloth has an outer edge that does not extend to the outer edges of the one-way transport material or the foam such that the absorbent terry cloth is fully enclosed between the one-way transport material and the foam.
Women's Garment
The invention relates to a women's garment comprising a constructed bust part having two cups, and two shoulder straps attached to the cups. The cups are formed from at least two foam layers joined together via thermoforming. The two cups have a thickening at the lower edge thereof, which is formed during the thermoforming of the foam layers and runs along the breast. A stabilization element is arranged between the foam layers, having a section starting from the shoulder straps at an outer edge of the cups and extending down to the lower edge of the cups, and a section starting from the shoulder straps and extending along a part of an upper edge of the cups. A part of the upper edge of the cups and a central region of the cups are free from the stabilization element.
