What are Bra and Bikini?
The Bra is a woman’s undergarment that supports and covers her breasts. Bras are typically form-fitting and perform a variety of functions and have also evolved into a fashion item. The primary purpose of a bra is to enhance the wearer’s comfort by supporting her breasts. Women sometimes wear bras to conform to informal or formal social norms such as a business dress code. In Western countries, it is estimated that from 75% to 90% of women wear a bra. A minority do not wear a bra, sometimes for health or comfort reasons, or because they believe they do not need one. Some garments, such as camisoles, tank tops and backless dresses, have built-in breast support, alleviating the need to wear a separate bra. Bra designers and manufacturers originally produced bras that were purely functional.


And the Bikini is typically a woman’s two-piece swimsuit. It is perhaps the most popular female beachwear around the globe, according to French fashion historian Olivier Saillard due to “the power of women, and not the power of fashion”. As he explains, “The emancipation of swimwear has always been linked to the emancipation of women.” By the mid 2000s, bikinis had become a $811 million business annually, according to the NPD Group, a consumer and retail information company.

Nowadays, changing social trends and new fabrics and materials have increased the variety of available designs, and allowed manufacturers to make Bras and Bikinis that are in some instances more fashionable than functional.
