In fact, NASA turned to Playtex - the bra company - to make spacesuits for the Apollo program because of their expertise with stretch. NASA needed a suit that would apply enough pressure to support life (*cough*) while staying flexible. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/neil-armstrongs-spacesuit-was-made-by-a-bra-manufacturer-3652414/ …https://twitter.com/HankyPankyLa/status/1149032144930594818 …

If I see another person state that bra bands have gotten looser in the last 30 years, “because they didn’t have stretch fabrics back then” I will scream. Lycra has been used in intimate apparel since the late 1950s. I assure you, we had stretch lace in the 1990s. #fashionhistory
