Ladies wear petticoats as underwear; Working-class women and peasant women wear small waists with lace on their chests. 1859, a man named Henry in Brooklyn, new york applied for a patent for "symmetrical spherical bra", which was regarded as the prototype of the bra.

1907, French designer paul poiret "announced the decline of corsets and the rise of bras in the name of freedom". He is therefore regarded as the inventor of the bra.
