Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007080355A2] The women's undergarment (1) includes two cups (2) for the breasts, a support band (3) arranged under the cups (2) and designed to surround the bust, two support elements (3) connected, first, to the cups (2) in the extension of the latter in terms of height and, second, to a rear panel, a mid panel (4) extending between the two cups (2) and the lateral panels (6) extending from the cups (2) towards the rear panel. The inside wall of the cups (2) has, in the vertical direction, an elasticity of at most 60%, and at least 15% of the surface of said wall has the ability to adhere to the skin. The mid panel (4) has a horizontal elasticity of at least 20%, preferably of the order of 60 to 80%. The adhesion capacity of the inside wall of the cups (2) is due to the presence of a material that has a high coefficient of friction with respect to the skin, particularly of the silicone type.
