ABSTRACT:
An improved brassiere for a person who has had a mastectomy operation. The brassiere may comprise a conventional garment in which at least one of the bust cups is adapted to receive and hold an artificial bust form. The cup in which the bust form is received is provided with an inside liner member that coacts with the cup to form a pocket enclosure for the form. The liner member is a unitary piece of bias cut soft material that extends continuously from a point adjacent the center of the brassiere, across the bust form receiving cup and out to the end of the adjacent side strap. The liner member is dimensioned so that its peripheral edges extend beyond the peripheral edges of the cup and strap thereby preventing the edges of the latter from contacting the wearer.
