1952 Padded Bra

Vintage Bra advertising at its best from 1952.

You might be wondering about this mid-century undergarment that resembles a bulls eye. Turns out, it is from the “ADD-vantage” line of bras manufactured for small-busted women by The Lovable Brassiere Company. According to the copy, this monstrosity “turns small figures into eye-catchers”. It sold for $2.00.

About Janet

I'm an American baby boomer with a strange hobby. I collect mid-century women's magazines. My blog, MidCenturyPage.com is a result of a 20 year passion to scan the pages of these magazines and share them with anyone who wants to understand what mid-century women thought about, cared about, and worried about while living in the 1950's and 1960's
