EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to the early 20th century, showcasing a woman admiring herself in the mirror while wearing the groundbreaking Brassiere Lystra. Dated back to 1911, this Edwardian-era undergarment marked a significant departure from the constricting corsets and heavy bustles that dominated the previous decades. The Brassiere Lystra was a revolutionary design that aimed to support the bust without compressing it, allowing for a more natural and youthful appearance. Its innovative structure, featuring adjustable straps and a lightweight fabric, offered both comfort and elegance. This newfound freedom from the heavy and restrictive undergarments of the past was a testament to the changing times, as women began to seek greater comfort and functionality in their clothing. As she gazes at her reflection, the woman in the photograph exudes a sense of confidence and vanity, her posture proud and poised. The mirror reflects not only her physical appearance but also the spirit of the era, as women embraced new ideas about beauty, femininity, and self-expression. The Brassiere Lystra, with its ability to keep the bust always young and supported, became a symbol of this newfound empowerment. This photograph serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the rich history of undergarments and the role they played in shaping women's lives. The Brassiere Lystra may no longer be in use today, but its legacy continues to inspire and influence the designs of modern undergarments, reminding us of the importance of comfort, functionality, and self-confidence in our daily lives.
