/discuss Supposedly one of Mel's great great great aunts or something invented the modern version of the Bra for herself because she had giant breastseses. She started making them for her friends but never patented the design and someone stole it and started mass producing them. Most likely a tall tale (they are all hicks) but that's my input!

supposedly it's true.. my great great aunt had what would be, in today's sizes something like a GGG or HHH..essentially, she NEEDED a bra cuz she couldnt walk around with those things hanging down. the story goes that she looked at the bras available and designed one (through trial and error) that could support the weight of the gianormous boobies. Big boobs are plentiful on that side of the family, so she was making em all for her female family members and their friends. Word has it that she came up with the idea for the underwire & crisscross design. She started making them for the local lingerie shop but didnt think it'd catch on...since she assumed big boobs were just a Hatfield thing...
