MODERATORS
Men’s underclothes today do not bear basically any similarities with those of the time before modern fabrics and garment construction methods. Women’s downstairs undergarments (bras are effectively completely new) are also significantly changed, but still share numerous visual and structural similarities with their precursors.
That bras are new is a common misconception.
The history of fashion is a quite old and well-developed academy. That these garments are notable is an exception which proves the rule.
