frindley commented on the word monobosom
Edwardian trend: "The general impression given was of an enormous one piece bosom, referred to as a monobosom. Because the bust was largely unsupported, ladies began to wear various styles of bust bodices and added other extra padding, even handkerchiefs, to increase the frontage which hung low over the waist."
