The original bra was “two handkerchiefs joined by ribbon.” She was inspired to create this new article of clothing because she was frustrated with the plunging necklines of the trendy dresses at the time, which didn’t work out for her curvy figure.Apparently, many other women had the same issues Mary Phelps Jacob did. She opened a factory with another woman, which became the first bra manufacturer ever. Jacob eventually changed her name to Caresse Crosby
