The world is round, but I am flat. So bras have been my go-to for years. Can’t wait to wear it in middle school and high school, shoved myself into wired push-ups prematurely, tried to turn myself into a
Penthouse
poster. While of course I don’t need need
one. I still haven’t; I don’t mean to brag. Nothing to see here…like I said, I’m flat!
After years of trying to show a full owl with endless wire and stuffing After the rack, I realized this. at Vogue After about two years of work , I ditched my bra completely. I work in the office of a fashion magazine and it’s mostly women, which means my ability to experiment with clothing is pretty high, otherwise it would result in a call from HR. Plus, the straps blocked the vest, the cups were visible through the thin shirt, and really, those ill-fitting cups reminded me of bad memories of being ruthlessly teased in high school. Call me Gloria Steinem. Call me Susan B. Anthony. Or maybe just call me a girl who wants to stick to suburban bros who call me flat chested. In six years, I don’t think I’ve ever looked better, no matter the scene: a wedding, a funeral, a meeting or a date.
in some In case, maybe I really don’t have a good one. But after years of nipple liberation, I finally put on a bra this month after spring 632 New York Fashion Show. This season was especially overwhelming—every designer seemed more sheer and scantily clad than the last. I need a fresh start.

French Connection’s white baby tee says “FCUK in Boston?” That sheer leopard-print Blumarine top that sees everything? (Is that a leopard spot? No, that’s mine… Oops
!) It was exhausting to skip the initial addictive layer – and I felt more and more exposed.
Instead, I poured in pictures of Ellen Von Unwerth or Helmut Newton, whose pictures often show The subject is unlit. While the foundations are intimate, the themes are dominant, put together, and always in control. I woke up last week and put on a pair of pinstriped pants, a pinstriped shirt, and a black La Perla lace bra that was sent to me a long time ago. Immediately, I felt a peaceful power.
My friend Carmen Rose Hall, a consultant in London, shares my point about control. She told me that when she got back to the office, wearing a bra made her feel more organized, “like in a movie where sexy women dress for their bossy fashion jobs and start with underwear.”
Maybe The feeling of control and the process of wearing a bra: this is another layer, structured and sometimes metallic. This is in line with my mentality in
