WonderBra is like false advertising, and women who wear them should also be required to wear a tag that says "Objects You Are Staring At May Be Smaller Than They Appear"

Putting pressure on body tissue like that has to have a negative long term effect, don't you think? I mean isn't it akin to Chinese foot binding?

The 22-pound (42-dollar, 32-euro) brassiere...

Well, there's their problem. What did they make this thing out of, lead?

If one needs a Wonderbra, what's there to provide a strain?

The 22-pound (42-dollar, 32-euro) brassiere would be back on the racks in January, the company said.

[Howard] Hughes designed a better garment to show off Russell's cleavage in 1943's "The Outlaw." Hughes built aircraft and interested some of his best engineers in designing the first cantilevered bra for Russell
