Wacoal Lingerie: In Pursuit of the Ideal Figure

By supporting the hips and lower back, the Chakuseki Bijin girdle series sets a new standard of functional underwear for office workers. In combination with the Yakusoku No Bra, even greater improvements in posture are possible.

Changes in bust shape with age: These changes usually start in a woman’s twenties, but some are already at Step 2 by that age.

Changes in hip shape over time: The age at which this change begins varies greatly, with some women in their forties still at Step 0.

Reconstruction of the typical bust of a woman in her twenties (left) and in her forties (right) based on Wacoal’s measurement data. The models are accurate in terms of firmness as well as form.

Undergarments are placed on Wacoal’s “apparel pressure-balance evaluation system,” which is capable of moving in a walking motion to test for uncomfortable tightness.
