Today in History - November 13, 1913 - Mary Phelps Jacobs invents modern bra. After tiring of barbaric corsets with whaleback bones and steel rods, Mary Phelps Jacobs, a New York socialite, took two silk handkerchiefs and some pink ribbon and fashioned herself the very first backless bra. She used the natural bias of the silk to provide the elasticity.
I don't have a spiritual analogy for this one...just thought I should give a little shout out to Mary Phelps Jacobs!! Whoop Whoop!
