Patent number: 6997775Abstract: A method of manufacturing a bra pad having a thicker summit area, as well as the pad itself, includes holding a sheet of resilient and formable material of uniform thickness, such as thermoplastic foam, and forming the sheet to have a graduated thicker summit area corresponding to each summit of a bra or bra-like garment for including the pad, and a surrounding thinner area. Each pad thus has a thicker summit area for extending over the summits of the breasts.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2005Date of Patent: February 14, 2006Assignee: Victoria's Secret Stores, Inc.Inventors: Andrea Jagaric, Nathalie Martinet, Judith Grigor, Bull Lau

Patent number: 6988931Abstract: A method for making a pad includes pre-laminating a pair of foam sheets with fabric, shaving the foam from a first end of each foam sheet so that it gradually becomes thinner until only fabric is existent at an opposite second end, attaching the fabric and foam assemblies via the fabric at the second ends to form a pre-form assembly, molding the pre-form assembly to form a pair of cup-shaped members, and trimming off material around the cup-shaped members to form a pair of pads. The method further includes molding a second sheet of fabric, enclosing a formed pad in the second sheet of fabric, and trimming off the second fabric material around the edges of the formed pad. The formed pad is thickest at the bottom for support and becomes thinner until there is only fabric along the neckline to blend in with the skin of the wearer.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2005Date of Patent: January 24, 2006Assignee: Victoria's Secret Stores, Inc.Inventors: Nathalie Martinet, Judith Grigor
