Cleavage Plunge Forces Bra Recall - Bras Snapping From The "Strain"
<snip>

THE creator of cleavage-making Wonderbra said it was recalling its latest invention after women complained their bras were snapping from the strain.

The bra, called the Deep Plunge Clearly Daring and made for diving necklines, went on sale in Britain last month, but its makers said it had received complaints that the strap connecting the two cups had broken while being worn.

The company Playtex, which like Wonderbra is also owned by Sara Lee Intimate Apparel, blamed the breakage on a "manufacturing fault" and said it only applied to a small number of products in an early production batch.

The £22 brassiere would be back on the racks in January, the company said.

But it means the design will likely miss out on making an appearance beneath open-bodiced blouses and dresses on show at racier holiday parties this season.

Because when you get it off, you wonder where the tits went. ;)

12. That's the sort of wardrobe malfunction I used to dream of.
Now, I just don't care.

Sadly.
