This appears to be for real. Wish I had a dollar for every time some young lady's bra served as a face mask for me!

Despite the questionable utility of the article and the article it describes, Gizmag is a really great site. They send out an email every day with all sorts of neat, and sometimes humorous, items and articles.

I have nothing to do with the site other than being a very happy subscriber to its newsletter!

I anticipate a brisk Japanese market for slightly used bras sold as face masks - just in case.

News Flash!!

Local Coulterville bank robbed by two men wearing Emegency Bra Facemasks, one red, one green.

The robbers demanded all the money from the female tellers or they would take off their bras.

From TFA:
While it’s good to be prepared, ladies should probably avoid advertising the fact they’re wearing an Emergency Bra, lest teenage boys are tempted to start a fire or instigate some other kind of event that will result in the woman having to rip her bra off.
"Teenage boys"??? Hell, I'm 58 and that was the first thing I thought of!
