The method for processing an image of an upper garment in the present invention comprises setting a collar image having an upper edge, a connecting line of two endpoints of which is in the horizontal direction, the distance between the two endpoints being equal to the distance between two end portions at a notch on a rear collar in a picture of upper garment without the rear collar, and the upper edge being in left-right axial symmetry and is convex or concave at a preset height or depth, overlaying the image of the upper garment without the rear collar on an upper layer of the neckline image, and superposing the two ends of the collar with the two endpoints of the upper edge.

Abstract: The brassiere with adjustable spacing between cups includes an elastic band adapted for releasable mounting about a user's torso and a pair of shoulder straps secured thereto. A pair of fabric cups are secured to the elastic band for supporting the user's breasts. A lower portion of each cup has a channel defined therein and an open end. Each end of an elongate, flexible support wire or member is slidably disposed within a respective one of the channels. Additionally, a pair of flaps are respectively secured to the pair of fabric cups. Each of the flaps has a free end for selective positioning adjacent a respective open end of each of the channels. The free ends may be secured together such that when the flaps are secured, the support wire allows the spacing between the cups to decrease, thus providing additional inward and upward support for the user's breasts.

Abstract: A brassiere comprising two cups, each one shaped like a shell containing inside a detachable padding. The outer shell is pre-shaped, that is without seams, made of natural or synthetic tissue and has no inserts made of metallic material in order not to exert any compression onto the mammary region. The inner shell is made of breathable and extensible elastic fibres, to allow supporting the healthy breast and keeping in seat the dressing without constricting. The cup shape is so as to be similar to that of a usual brassiere wholly containing the mamma, so as not to reveal the presence of dressing or shape or volume asymmetries even under light dresses.

Abstract: Wafer level packaging process for packaging MEMS or other devices. In some embodiments, a MEMS wafer with normal thickness is firstly bonded to a cap wafer of normal thickness, followed by a thinning on the backside of the MEMS wafer. After this, the bonded wafer stack and the capping of the hermetically packaged MEMS devices are still rigid enough to do further processing. On this basis, through vias on the thinned substrate can be easily formed and stopped on the regions to be led out (e.g., metal pads/electrodes, highly doped silicon, etc.). Vias can be partially filled as this is the final surface of process. Even thick metal coated/patterned vias have much more space to relax possible thermal stress, as long as the vias are not completely filled with hard metal(s). Various embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: An undergarment or bodysuit which uses a simplex lining between a TACTEL outer layer and a cotton inner layer, the cotton inner layer and the simplex lining forming a laminate. Stabilized tricot may be included as part of the laminate. The use of the simplex layer instead of the foam layer results in a material which provides a similar smoothing effect as foam but which has a lower tendency to crease or ride up when the wearer bends down or bends over. Thong portions snap together and use a powernet fabric to stretch the garment over the body and hold the garment down at the waist when it is worn to provide a smooth look. Foam cushions are also provided at strategic places to reduce the pressure caused by flexible wires or bones used to provide additional support to keep the bones from digging into the rib cage and provide more comfort to the bodysuit undergarment. A small, vertically extending bone is placed between the cups for additional support and to keep the cup support wires centered.

More specifically, two front panels each comprise a cup portion and a conforming portion. The prosthesis panels are attached to the rear facing of the cup portion of the front panel to form enclosed pockets to hold one or two prosthesis. Each of the two rear panels are joined at one end to the front panels and extend to meet the opposing rear panel at a back closure. The free end of each of the front panels meet to form a front closure. Straps extend from the top of the front panel to the top of the adjacent rear panel.

Abstract: A brassiere for enhancing cleavage between the breasts of a wearer and including a torso shaping body member, which can be worn under a garment which is strapless, off the shoulder and/or cut low in the back.
