Abstract

A brassiere is provided having a front piece incorporating two breast cups and with two side pieces extending around the upper body of an individual wearing the brassiere, the first ends of which are fastened to the front piece at the sides and the second ends of which can be connected together in the back area of the individual. According to the invention, each of the side pieces includes two layers of a textile material, namely an outer layer and an inner layer. The layers are fastened together at the free edges in such a way that the layer of the textile material forming the outside is folded over toward the inside to form marginal edges and that these edge areas are connected by an adhesive layer with the opposite side of the textile material forming the inside.
