Abstract: Garments configured to enable hands-free breast pumping using a breast pump and to enable direct nursing, include brassiere cups having a plurality of at least partially overlapping material components. Each component may define a free edge along a portion of its periphery and may be seamless interior of its periphery. The funnel of a breast pump may be received under and behind free edges of the components, and the free edges may provide support to the funnel while the breast pump is used for milk expression. One of the components also provides a side support during direct nursing.

Abstract: Garments for a nursing woman, which garments may be configured to enable hands-free breast pumping using a breast pump, include a brassiere portion with a plurality of at least partially overlapping material layers, which may be defined, in whole or in part, by edges that are at least substantially straight. The funnel of the breast pump may be received under and behind edges of the layers, and the edges may provide support to the funnel while the breast pump is used for milk expression.

Abstract: A garment for a nursing woman includes at least partially overlapping layers of material. The layers extend between lateral sides of the garment. Some edges of the layers may be attached to edges of other layers or components, while at least one edge of each layer is a free edge. Free edges at least partially define nooks into which the funnels of breast pumps may be received. The free edges of the garment provide multi-directional support to the funnels to enable hands-free pumping. In some embodiments, medial edges of components of the garment cross one another and extend to contribute to the support of the funnels during use of the garment.

Abstract: A brassiere includes a multifunction brassiere cup that includes multiple layers partially overlapping one another. A first layer, second layer, and third layer each have unattached edges. The unattached edges of the first and second layers cross to define a nook, which nook is covered by the overlapping third layer. The multifunction brassiere cup is configured to selectively receive a funnel of a breast pump behind the third layer of the cup and within the nook such that the funnel is supported against a nipple by the unattached edges of the first, second, and third layers.
