Is it conical bra time again?

"Throughout the last century, the trend for feminine pointy-shaped bras experienced a renaissance following times of a toughened economy, marking a return of unabashed femininity as women seek to have more fun with fashion as a form of escapism."

Is that the kind of fun we want these days? Do you — if you are a woman — want to strap yourself into one of these architectural marvels? If so, you will inspire not just passion, but joking. From the first link:

'Wow, your boobs walked into the room before you did,' gasps the photographer.

I pop outside to grab a sandwich for lunch and the man serving me seems to have problems focusing on my face, and on my way back to the office a passing builder shouts after me: 'You'll have someone's eye out with them!'

I think you have to have the right sense of humor — that is, a sense of humor about your own breasts — to wear an old-school conical bra. That doesn't mean your sense of humor can't include bitchily blaming people for noticing, of course. The key, it would seem, is that you are having fun. It's escapism, remember. Escapism via rocket.
