Well, we’re closer than ever to the debut of the UpBra. We’ll get our road-tests out then the UpBra will be available to those of you who are waiting to enhance your look, be sexy and stay comfortable. It’s very exciting!! There has never been a bra quite like the UpBra and it’s exclusivity will be worth waiting for. In the meantime, keep checking back for interesting bra facts like these:

In 2004, archaeologists unearthed a 1,000-year -old padded bra. This antique undergarment, found in Mongolia, has gold silk back and shoulder straps.

Men tend to be good a manual tasks, except when it comes to unhooking a bra. One study found that it took an average of 27 seconds before a guy actually got one unfastened. And that’s using both hands!!

The bra has enjoyed a colorful history.  They were allegedly invented by an American named Otto Totzling (wrong!) and burned by feminists in the 1960’s.

The “over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder” is a necessary evil in many women’s lives…but who do we have to blame for this often uncomfortable, but ever-so-sexy piece of clothing?

2500 BC Women on the island of Crete begin using bra-like garments to lift their bare breasts out of their clothing.

450BC-285AD Roman and Greek women preferred to play down their chests, using a band strapped around their breasts to reduce their bust size.

I just came back from the factory where the UpBra will be manufactured.  I have to tell you, I have never seen so much precision and detail go into any piece of clothing, let alone a bra.  I was able to road-test the UpBra, and was even happier than the last time we had a prototype to test.  I’m a 36B, and not one to wear underwire, much less a bra as complicated and enhancing as this.  I knew how comfortable it was and how well it worked, but this time around we’ve made it perfect!  By using the slider on the strap, I was able to lift my breasts to new heights and create cleavage I’ve never seen (on me) before!  I wore it most of the day and all evening and never, ever felt the mechanism inside the cups.  I never got sweaty or sticky.  I did, however, got a few appreciative glances.  I think I’m going to like this new  adventure. 

UpBra lifts so well it doesn’t need pads.  It’s 100% you.  Ordinary bras squeeze you in or push you up over the top.  Only UpBra’s unique lifting action lifts UNDERNEATH and AROUND your breast.  so, instead of you having to fit the bra, the bra fits you.

Your twin peaks weigh less than you think.  The surge in the scale isn’t their fault.  An A-cup clocks in at only a quarter pound; a B-cup is about a half; a C-cup about three-quarters and a D-cup is around one pound.  Whatever they weigh, place them in the UpBra and you’ll love your look!

Thanks to www.cosmopolitan.com, we’ll share with you some suprising facts about your breasts. For all the attention breasts get from men (and the media) you probably know suprising little about yours.  Stick with us and we’ll share a fact a day…Here goes:

Breasts Get Fat.  In your 20s, your boobs are made up of fat, milk glands and collagen - the connective tissue that keeps them firm. “But as you age, the glands and collagen shrink and are replaced by more fat”, Laurie Casas, a plastic surgeon and associate professor of surgery at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine.  Instead of making your bra size go up, however, the added flab can send breasts down, closer to the floor, if you know what I mean.  Wearing an underwire bra - like the UpBra - whether you’re an A-cup or D can help the fight.

Hey girls - here’s an animated version of how the UpBra comfortably lifts you from the inside.  You can see that there are no awkward pads, and that the lower half of the lifting cradle lifts straight up under the breast - giving you a natural, enhanced shape and cleavage.  How far you take it is up to you!! What do you think?
