Shaping the Ladies: A Brief History of the Bra

Love them or hate them, bras have always been with us in one form or another. They've squashed us down, lifted us up, and shaped our silhouettes, a constant part of our day to day. Let's take a trip through time to see how - and why - it took shape and meet some of the women who shaped its evolution. For a transcript of this episode, images, and more, check out my website.
