The rest, as they say, is history—a history that’s amply, titillatingly documented by designer Cheree Berry inHoorah for the Bra. The 20s’ flat-chested flappers, the 50s’ bullet-bosomed bombshells, the eye-gouging cones of Madonna’sBlonde Ambition–tour bustier: this provocative pop-up book reveals it all.
