While thinking about my next project, an Edwardian underbust corset. I once again started wandering what did the Edwardian ladies wear for bust support. (I know I definitely need some.) The answer is a Bust Bodice or a bust improver! http://www.vam.ac.uk/images/image/11221-popup.html Woman's Bust Bodice, 1895 Woman's Bust Bodice, 1902 http://www.flickr.com/photos/historika/5576043389/ More early bra's French Bust Bodice, ca. 1905 Bridal corset.

Edwardian Bust Bodice, ca 1913 A Turn Toward the Bust: Early Twentieth Century History of brassieres (Wikipedia) Flickr - Late Victorian Altered Bust Bodice Bras and Girdles Fashion History Next question; How do I make one? I might try something like this: "...In 1910, Mary Phelps Jacob (known later in life as Caresse Crosby), a 19-year-old New York socialite, purchased a sheer evening gown for a social event. At that time, the only acceptable undergarment was a corset stiffened with whalebone. Polly had large breasts and found that the whalebone visibly poked out around her plunging neckline and from under the sheer fabric. Dissatisfied with this arrangement, she worked with her maid to fashion two silk handkerchiefs together with some pink ribbon and cord.[40]:7 [41] Her innovation drew immediate attention that evening, and at the request of family and friends, she made more of her new device..." source wikipedia

Yet another Ralph Lauren model has shown up with her waist digitally altered so that she's thinner than human biology permits. It's the fourth model in a fourth different venue, suggesting that RL's staff of art directors -- or maybe the man himself? -- is unable to get a grip on reality.
Project Harpoon posts photos of plus-size models alongside altered images that purport to depict what they would like if they were thinner. The administrator says the page is there to 'help' overweight women.
Pictures that unintentionally look like Renaissance-style paintings are as beautiful as they are hilarious.
Swiss artist Daniele Buetti addresses the importance of sex appeal, death, the value of art, and much more in his perforated light box photos. Buetti’s photo-scarifications, light box photographs, and installations are a reaction to our market-driven consumer world and pop culture perfectionism. These works incorporate photos of fashion icons such as Kate Moss and other top models pierced with many holes that glow from behind. Using his piercing technique the artist carves words and questions that deface the figure in the photo but at the same time calls attention to other forms of abuse. See more after the jump!

When you point your camera at a random thing on the street, you usually don’t expect much. But in the vast sea of dull photos that fill your camera roll, one stands out. Call it a miracle, or a lovely surprise, but if you feel like the pic is superior in composition, style, lighting, and somewhat resembles a classical painting, it may be that you have just encountered “accidental renaissance.”
