ABSTRACT:
There is provided an improved mastectomy brassiere of the type including two breast cups each adapted to receive either a natural breast or a mastectomy form pad. Each of the breast cups has two upwardly tapering, non-elastic margin strips, a lower curved margin strip connecting said tapering margin strips, an outer non-elastic fabric cover with a desired breast forming contour and a retaining means generally spaced from the fabric cover to form a pocket for a mastectomy form pad. The improvement comprises providing the retaining means as first and second separate stretchable flaps with the first flap secured along one of the marginal strips and along the lower strip, the second flap secured along the other of the margin strips and along the lower strip and wherein the flaps are overlapped at the lower strip to define an upper, generally triangular access opening for the mastectomy form pad.
