would anyone know a person, or would any one have a 70s bra that was used to heavy beading or coin work, that would be willing to deconstruct it in part to show construction?
Heres my thinking........ im a busty lady, and many hand made bedhlas these days do not support the weight of coin work alone, never mind coin work with a big bust, so im very curious to know how they did it in the 70s knowing that A, they did not really have the internet knowledge they have today and B, the "bases" they had to work with were basic fabric bras with 0 moulded foam. I understand that for some, to deconstruct a much beloved vintage bedhla may be sacrilege, but i reckon it would help alot of dancers these days with construction of something sturdy
