Push up bra
Disclosed in this specification is a range of push up bras. The range comprises different bra cup sizes, and offers a different amount of padding for different cup sizes in the same range. The different padding provided facilitates a better tailoring of the bra to the body type of the wearer. The padding occupies a decreasing area of the cup as the cup size increases. The centre of the padding is also gradually lowered with increasing cup size.
1. A range of differently sized push-up bras, each bra comprising a pair of padded cups having padding therein connected by a central front and a back strap, each cup having an apex centrally positioned in said cup wherein the range comprises:
a. at least an A-cup size bra and a B-cup size bra;
b. wherein said padding is positioned in each cup from a point below the apex and extending upward a distance that is inversely proportional to the cup size of the bras in said range, such that said padding occupies a decreasing area of each cup as the cup size increases;
c. wherein said padding covers the apex in the A-cup size bra and wherein said padding does not cover the apex in the B-cup size bra.
2. The range according to claim 1 , wherein the padding in the A-cup size bra comprises about 85% of the area of each cup.
3. The range according to claim 1 , wherein the padding in the B-cup size bra comprises about 50% of the area of each cup.
4. The range according to claim 1 further comprising a C-cup size bra, wherein the padding comprises about 25% of the area of each cup.
5. The range according to claim 1 further comprising a C-cup size bra, wherein the padding does not cover the apex in the C-cup size bra.
6. The range according to claim 5 further comprising a D-cup size bra, wherein the padding does not cover the apex in the D-cup size bra.
7. A range of differently sized push-up bras, each bra comprising a pair of padded cups having padding therein connected by a central front and a back strap, each cup having an apex centrally positioned in said cup, wherein each cup comprises a bottom cup line, and a top cup line that extends from the central front to a vertical maximum point of the cup, wherein the vertical maximum point of the cup meets with a shoulder strap seam, wherein each cup further comprises an underarm line that extends from the shoulder strap seam to the back strap, wherein the range comprises:
a. at least an A-cup size bra and a B-cup size bra;
b. wherein said padding is positioned in each cup from a point below the apex and extending upward a distance that is inversely proportional to the cup size of the bras in said range, such that said padding occupies a decreasing area of each cup as the cup size increases;
c. wherein the padding in the A-cup size bra comprises a lateral periphery that is substantially parallel with the underarm line of the A-cup size bra;
d. wherein the padding in the B-cup size bra comprises a lateral periphery that is substantially parallel with the underarm line of the B-cup size bra
e. wherein the lateral periphery of the padding in the B-cup size bra is shorter than the lateral periphery of the padding in the A-cup size bra.
8. The range according to claim 7 wherein the lateral periphery of the padding in the B-cup size bra is at a greater distance from the underarm line of the B-cup size bra than the lateral periphery of the padding in the A-cup size bra is from the underarm line of the A-cup size bra.
9. The range according to claim 7 , further comprising a C-cup size bra, wherein the padding in the C-cup size bra does not comprise a lateral periphery that is substantially parallel with the underarm line of the C-cup size bra.
10. The range according to claim 9 , further comprising a D-cup size bra, wherein the padding in the D-cup size bra does not comprise a lateral periphery that is substantially parallel with the underarm line of the D-cup size bra.
11. A range of differently sized push-up bras, each bra comprising a pair of padded cups having padding therein connected by a central front and a back strap, each cup having an apex centrally positioned in said cup wherein the range comprises:
a. at least an A-cup size bra and a B-cup size bra;
b. wherein said padding is positioned in each cup from a point below the apex and extending upward a distance that is inversely proportional to the cup size of the bras in said range, such that said padding occupies a decreasing area of each cup as the cup size increases;
c. wherein said padding extends horizontally across each cup to a point spaced from the central front and wherein the distance from said central front to said point is directly proportional to the cup size of the bras in said range, such that said distance from said central front increases as the cup size increases.
12. The range according to claim 11 , further comprising a C-cup size bra and a D-cup size bra.
13. A range of differently sized push-up bras, each bra comprising a pair of padded cups having padding therein connected by a central front and a back strap, each cup having an apex centrally positioned in said cup, wherein each cup comprises a bottom cup line, and a top cup line that extends from the central front to a vertical maximum point of the cup, wherein the vertical maximum point of the cup meets with a shoulder strap seam, wherein each cup further comprises an underarm line that extends from the shoulder strap seam to the back strap, wherein the range comprises:
a. at least an A-cup size bra and a B-cup size bra;
b. wherein said padding is positioned in each cup from a point below the apex and extending upward a distance that is inversely proportional to the cup size of the bras in said range, such that said padding occupies a decreasing area of each cup as the cup size increases;
c. wherein said padding in each cup extends to a vertical maximum point;
d. wherein the vertical maximum point of the padding in the A-cup size bra is in proximity to the vertical maximum point of the cup; and
wherein the vertical maximum point of the padding in the B-cup size bra is situated at a point about halfway between the shoulder strap seam and the bottom cup line.
