The secret is in a new drip-dry Chemstrand nylon fiber, which, once molded, holds its shape forever. To make the bra, the lace cloth is laid over a metal replica of a well-shaped bosom. Another form, hollowed out like an Iron Maiden, clamps down and presses the cloth against the model bosom. (Most bras are cut to size 34B, the great average U.S. measurement.)
