Gosh! Haven't seen one of those on a woman since(sadly, never on a man), can't even remember when. Maybe those old B&W Playtex ads, was it?

I stopped to rest in front of a shop in Paharganj and across the street was a display of bras and girdles. I suppose they have these in other areas, as well.

I never went inside, but the entrance to one of my favorite hotels in Varanasi was next to a store that sold undies.

Keep your eyes open -- you never know where you'll find these things!

I must admit that I have to wear one come wintertime!

Here's a few images of the current style.
