Young Teen College Girl Without Brassiere

It is increasingly commonplace to see public figures, especially celebrities, actresses and members of the fashion industry have chosen not to wear bras. A well-known example is a member of the BBC Gardening's Ground Force, Charlie Dimmock. Other celebrities noted for public bralessness include Britney Spears, Clare Danes, Lindsay Lohan, Nadine Coyle, Mischa Barton, Meg Ryan, Paris Hilton, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, fashion executive Tamara Mellon, and former model and France's first lady Carla Bruni, who welcomed Russian president Dmitry Medvedev at a state dinner in tight dress that revealed she was braless.
Many outer garments like sundresses and formal evening wear are designed to be worn without bras, or are designed with built-in support. Fashion writers continue to suggest alternatives to bras or ways of dressing without bras, emphasising that wearing a bra or not is a matter of choice, as opposed to necessity. Given the discomfort women experience with ill-fitting bras, an increasing number of women, once they are home, are switching to undershirts, jogbras, or nothing at all. Unhappy bra owners have donated thousands of bras to the Braball Sculpture, a collection of 18,085 bras. The organizer, Emily Duffy, wears a 42B and switched to stretch undershirts with built-in bras because standard bras cut her mid-section.
• Brassieres and security
The United States Transportation Security Administration recommends that women do not wear underwire bras because they can set off the metal detectors, though some travelers say they wear them and they do not set off the detector every time. On Sunday, August 24, 2008, big-busted passenger and film maker Nancy Kates set off a metal detector during security screening. She objected when the agent attempted to pat-down her breasts. She said she told the agent, "'You can't treat me as a criminal for wearing a bra." A TSA supervisor told her she had to either submit to the pat-down search in a private room or not fly. Kates offered to take off her bra, which the TSA accepted. She went to the restroom, removed her bra, and walked through the airport and security screening braless. She said that a supervisor told her that underwire bras were the leading cause of metal detector alarms.
