	Brassiere
		The first bra-like device to support the breasts was patented (nr 24033) in 1859 by Henry S Lesher of Brooklyn, New York; although it is recognisably a bra, the design looks uncomfortable by current standards.

		In 1889 Cadolle invented a two-piece undergarment called le bien-être (the wellbeing).

	Rocky Mountain News: Spotlight Columnists
		As the inventor of the modern bra, experts point to Frenchwoman Herminie Cadolle in 1889, whose innovation was that the support came from the shoulders instead of from below, and New York socialite Mary Phelps Jacob, who received a patent for the "backless brassiere" in 1914.
		Cadolle's invention was marketed as a health aid, while Jacob's was born of necessity: She was dressing for a party and realized that a whalebone corset wouldn't look good under her sheer evening gown.
		So she and her French maid fabricated a bra from handkerchiefs and ribbon, and took orders for her creation that very evening, though she later sold the patent for a mere $1,500, according to inventors.about.com.

		It featured air-filled rubber cups that held each breast, and the strapping design is not so far removed from today's undergarments to render his creation unrecognizeable as a proto-bra.
		Her active lifestyle and busy schedule soon convinced her there just had to be a better foundation garment for women like her than the then-universal and very uncomfortable corset.
		The top half of her 1889 two-part invention was "designed to sustain the bosom and supported by the shoulders." (The bottom half was a corset that covered only the waist and rear.) Cadolle named this two-piecer le bien-être (the wellbeing).

	Questions & Answers: Brassiere
		As an aside on the way words can shift in meaning over time and between languages, a brassière in modern French most commonly refers to a baby’s vest (in the British sense of an undershirt) or to a lifebelt, while the usual word for a bra in that language is soutien-gorge, literally a bosom support.
		This last name seems to have been bestowed by Herminie Cadolle, who marketed the first type recognisable as its modern form in France in 1905.
		Though the early history is somewhat confused and open to conflicting claims, the first American patent was issued in 1914 to Mary Phelps Jacob (so it is sometimes said that the bra is 90 years old this year).

		This early brassiere is a feather-light dream in comparison to the heavy corsets that had previously been relied on to support the bust.

		The invention of the modern brassiere is credited to Caresse Crosby (also known as Mary Phelps Jacob), who patented her creation in 1914.

		Herminie Cadolle devised the a garment called the Bien-Etre (meaning well-being), which connected with sashes over the shoulders to the corset in back.
