Abstract
A garment, bra, underwear, shaper, or other suitable articles of clothing, encircles a body part or a body organ of a human wearer. The back-side or back-region of the garment has three areas or five areas or other number of areas of differential elasticity and/or differential rigidness and/or differential support. In a demonstrative garment, a back-side region includes at least five areas: a central area having reduced elasticity; a right-side area having increased elasticity; a left side area having increased elasticity; a first intermediary area, located between the central area and the right-side area, wherein the first intermediary area has intermediate elasticity; and a second intermediary area, located between the central area and the left-side area, wherein the second intermediary area has intermediate elasticity.
