1951 – Maidenform April Showers

I dreamed I got caught in the rain

Maidenform Bra Ad – April 1951 – Today’s Woman Magazine

Bra ads were common in mid-century magazines. To stand out from the other bra ads, each manufacturer seemed to have a theme. Maidenform’s was always the same. “I Dreamed I _____[fill in the blank]___ in my Maidenform Bra”. This ad appeared in the April 1951 edition of Today’s Woman magazine with the tagline, “I dreamed I got caught in the rain in my Maidenform bra.

Nice weather for dreams . . . especially when it brings a shower of compliments on my figure!

No chasing rainbows for me . . . I’ve found the treasure already . . . my Maidenform Bra!

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
