Todays Brassieres are made of many different materials including cotton, rayon, silk, spandex, polyester, and lace.

A woman can alter her silhouette by simply purchasing a brassiere with cups that are designed to render a specific shape.
Various significant aspects of brassiere manufacturing are covered, e.g. bra design, molding technology, and manufacturing automation. Bra design is substantial to brand product development while innovative molding technology is the key to signature types of bras like a sew-free bra, seamless bra, and one-piece bra. Automation has been a global trend in manufacturing as it reduces the labor cost and, on the other hand, enhances the consistency in product quality.
Derived from the French word meaning upper arm, the brassiere is a mass-produced support undergarment worn by women that consists of two fabric cups attached to two side panels, a back panel, and shoulder straps (unless strapless) that fits snugly. They are sized according to a universal grading system first introduced by Ida Rosenthal, the founder of Maidenform, in 1928.

However, in today’s home sewing world of sophisticated sewing machines and sergers, few garments are made entirely by hand.But, many home-sewn and custom-made garments continue to have some type of hand stitching used primarily as finishing techniques (hemming, securing fasteners, etc.). Thus, knowing and understanding the proper stitch to use is important to the item’s appearance.

Seam types are the place where two pieces of fabric are joined by application of a series of stitches or stitch types with a defined geometry. Over the years there are a number of different types of seams that have been developed to do different jobs. Many have largely been superseded by the development of machine stitches that finish as you sew them, and by the development of the overlock (or serger in some parts of the world), it is useful to know some of the basic seams types and finishes.
