Last month, I relayed to you the explanation (from Tiffany Berrier of Chantelle) of why there are no pretty D+ racerback bras to go under summer dresses:

  1. Racerback bras require front closure.
  2. Full busts need the center gore to tack (stay flat) between breasts to anchor the bra to the body.
  3. With so much pressure on this center anchor, a front closure wouldn’t stay closed. 

After speaking to Tiffany, I passed this bra at the Zinke exhibit (this photo is complements of the Forty Winks blog).

Wouldn’t multiple hooks like this in front keep a D+ racerback bra from popping open?  Or would there be an issue with fitting the underwires in?  I would love it if  bra company engineers would play with this and make it work . . . and then for the designers to create color blocks like this Zinke bra!  What do you think?
