ABSTRACT:
The garment is provided featuring stretchable, resilient straps and a bodice. The straps are sufficiently resilient and suitably stretchable so that when a women wearing the garment pulls down the bodice, she can expose a breast for nursing and when through, she can return the bodice to its original position covering the breast. Straps and bodice are resilient such that garment regains it as original shape when returned to the original position. In this fashion, a women wearing the garment is able to expose the breast for nursing with one easy motion without having to deal with flaps or buttons or the like. The invention also provides female snap fasteners on the inner surface of the cups so that breast pads may be removeably fixed thereto. Thus, the invention provides a garment which is self sufficient, not requiring a bra for the use of breast pads. Bodice also fits snugly enough to hold nursing pads in place even if they are not snapped in.
