Women wear bras for a variety of purposes, for support, to improve the shape of breasts, to reduce or to enlarge the perceived breast size, or to restrain breast movement during an activity such as during exercise, to enhance their cleavage, to facilitate nursing. Most bras are designed to lift the breasts off the chest wall if they sag and to restrain them from movement. Bra designers strive to produce a garment that is both practical and attractive.
Some women and members of the medical community question the common assumption in Western society that all women should wear a bra, and a slowly increasing percentage of women prefer to not wear a bra on a regular basis.[citation needed] The bra has become a feminine icon or symbol charged with political and cultural meanings that overlay its practical purpose. Some feminists consider the brassiere a symbol of the repression of women's bodies.[1] Historically, when a young girl gets her first bra, it may be symbolic of her coming of age.
A miniskirt, sometimes hyphenated as mini-skirt, is a skirt with a hemline well above the knees – generally no longer than 10 cm (4 in) below the buttocks.[1] The mini was a defining fashion symbol of "Swinging London" in the 1960s, and remains popular.[citation needed]
A minidress is a dress with a hemline significantly above the knees. Taken a step further, a similarly named "micro-miniskirt" is a further abbreviation of the miniskirt and is largely seen as a fashion statement reserved for the very daring, the youthful, or for its use in theatrical arenas.
