Therefore, corset-like bras could not be worn with dresses. Women, on the other hand, lost their patience to this situation. Since a woman named Mary Phelps Jacob could not wear a corset with her open back semi-transparent dress, she took 2 thin handkerchiefs and sewed them together. This is exactly how the modern bra came about.
