Abstract

A woman's undergarment includes a pair of cups, a center cover piece, a front panel, a stretchable tape, a back panel, and shoulder straps. One embodiment of the undergarment prevents cups from slipping upward and allows a wearer's breasts to be pushed toward the sternum and then lifted so as to create natural and beautiful cleavage lines in the decollate area without deforming the breasts.
