内衣发展史欧洲内衣历史欧洲中世纪宫廷中服装的代表性，从当时的王公贵族的服装中可见一斑，即强调胸部的丰满、最大限度地束腰部以及突出纤细腰肢的大大张开的长裙。
中世纪的欧洲贵族文化诞生了可以称之为最早的紧身内衣的女胸衣。
但当时的妇女由于从少女时代起就开始穿着这种过度束腰的胸衣以至于导致骨骼变形，并且由于缺乏卫生观念，她们甚至要重复穿上两件这样的胸衣。
欧洲古代内衣的发展史也是一部女子遭受禁锢和蹂躏的血泪史。
几个世纪里，紧身胸衣把妇女变成了举止优雅的奴隶。
但，为什么很多女子还趋之若骛？古代的内衣究竟有什么迷人之处？17到18世纪，女性们还没有携带手袋出门的习惯。
听说衬裙起到手袋的作用您一定会十分惊讶吧。
她们在用鲸骨框撑的大大的长裙下面的衬裙上缝上口袋，把私房钱放在口袋里，甚至在衬裙上缝上2 、3个口袋，从外出时使用的化妆用具到旅行时携带的食物等一应物品统统放在里面。
当然取出时就不得不撩起长裙，以至里面的衬裙一览无余。
18世纪出现了“束衣”，也开始了其折磨女性的历史。
妇女们自觉在自己的胴体上构筑了严严密密的堡垒，用几乎是残酷的手法，把自己的身体，用重重的布条勒起来，很多女士因此而导致肋骨骨折、流产、内脏移位等。
这种被女性自觉地带上的“刑具”，竟被当时的媒体称为“舒适的工艺”。
19世纪在法国大革命风暴的冲击下，古典主义的女装去掉了前几个世纪女子的紧身胸衣和裙撑，重新恢复了古希腊时期女子自然流畅的服饰线条。
由于拿破仑对内衣的重视，紧身胸衣才在内衣制造商的推动下有所改进，开始接近现代妇女所用的乳罩背心的样式。
19世纪后期到1914年的世界服装经历了一个从传统封闭式观念向现代开放式观念转变的过程，女性逐渐从紧身衣和撑裙的束缚中解放出来20世纪，女权运动风起云涌，妇女们要求与男子平等参与工作，而紧身胸衣和裙撑摧残了女子身体的发育与健康，也无法适应现代女子的工作与生活需要，因而改革的呼声日益高涨。
而现在，我们似乎应该为女性的大解放欢呼，但仔细一想，事实又非如此抽脂、整容、丰胸、提臀、节食、跳操……现代社会的“新女性”们在折磨自己上面并不逊色于自己的前辈。

1978年7月，在英国读大学的格里丝到美国旧金山度假，住在离贝克沙滩不远的朋友家里．那里是旧金山一处著名的沙滩浴场，格里丝很快就爱上了这个地方．她几乎每天傍晚都下海游泳。
不过一连两天，格里丝上岸后总会发现不远处有一个男孩的眼神在她身上徘徊流连，偶尔还拿笔偷偷地在一张纸上记着什么。
格里丝心里感到不快。
第三天，当这个男孩再次出现在沙滩上时，格里丝走到他身边，毫不客气地质问他：“你是在监视我吗?我要看一下你手里的东西!”男孩的脸立即红了，他迟疑了儿秒钟．才犹豫不决地把那张纸递到了格里丝的手里。
格里丝一看，纸上除了画着她的草图外，旁边还密密麻麻地记载着色彩、比例以及尺寸。
“非常抱歉，我只是觉得你身上的这套泳衣很漂亮”男孩小声辩解着。

The upscale lingerie and apparel firm took shopping for lingerie from the neglected corners of department stores and put it front and center in thousands of boutiques throughout the United States. Both men and women happily flocked to the sensuous, sumptuously decorated shops and buying sexy innerwear was no longer a chore or embarrassing for either sex.Men gladly accompanied their wives or lovers to Victoria's Secret, while women enjoyed finding a myriad of products in every size and shape imaginable. This was the experience Roy Raymond had in mind when he founded Victoria's Secret in 1977 in San Francisco. Loath to shop for lingerie or foundations for his wife in austere surroundings, Raymond envisioned an appealing shop with a stylish decor—somewhere with aVictorian-boudoir feel. The next year, Raymond took his lingerie fantasies a step further, creating a mail order catalogue to sell his growing selection of bras, panties, slips, and loungewear.The response to the Victoria's Secret catalogue was immediate and stunning; Raymond's business mushroomed in size and scope yet he had problems meeting demand and running the mail order business. While there were rivals, such as Frederick's of Hollywood which sold many of the same products, Frederick's had a raunchy feel to its stores and looked more like an S&M supplier than intimate apparel retailer. In 1982, Raymond sold the company, which consisted of six faltering stores and its catalogue, for $4 million to Leslie Wexner, founder of The Limited women's apparel firm.Throughout the remainder of the 1980s, the Victoria's Secret mystique grew and Wexner decided to add another lingerie maker to his fold, launching Cacique as a French counterpart to Victoria's faux English styling. While Cacique stores opened near or by Victoria's Secret stores in 1988 and 1989, the older sibling's catalogues had reached the pinnacle of popularity. The thick magazine-like editions became acceptable "girlie" material for men of all ages. Women awaited the arrival of catalogues almost as eagerly as men; soon the pages were crowded with not only intimate apparel but sportswear and accessories as well. Gone were the posed couples that had populated Raymond's catalogue, replaced by sexy, pouty, internationally known models. Being selected to pose for a Victoria's Secret catalogue became a much sought after job, a stepping stone to model superstardom.In the early 1990s Victoria's Secret continued to broaden its product line with swimsuits (and a special swimwear catalogue reminiscent of the annual Sports Illustrated edition), simple, cotton panties—which suddenly made the old-fashioned underwear hip and must-have—and a bath and body line called Second Skin Satin Luxury Bath Collection. Next came the Miracle Bra in 1994, released months ahead of Warner's Wonderbra. The Limited, which had created a subsidiary called Intimate Brands to manage Victoria's Secret and its sister company, Bath & Body Works, spun the company off in 1995, retaining a majority stake when the firm went public.Despite its similarity to its sibling, Cacique failed to gain the notoriety or clientéle of its much famed elder. Intimate Brands closed the chain in 1998, putting a new home furnishings concept into many of the stores called the White Barn Candle Company. Around the same time, Victoria's Secret introduced cosmetics into its stores and catalogue, setting the stage for Victoria's Secret Beauty, which began as in-store shops. The firm then joined the wave of the future by launching a company website. Although many retailers had websites for information, store locations, and to sell products, Victoria's Secret decided to broadcast its spring fashion show live via the Internet in early 1999. Servers were completely unprepared for the 1.5 million viewers who tried to log on; they were not only completely overwhelmed by the response but jammed for hours and eventually crashed due to the unexpected crush of web surfers.In 1999 parent company Intimate Brands introduced additional cosmetics to Bath & Body Works and Victoria's Secret stores, and took the in-store Victoria's Beauty shops and started creating separate stores either adjacent to or near existing Victoria's Secret boutiques. Over the next two years, the company moved in several new directions. A men's fragrance collection, called Very Sexy for Him,was developed for a 2001 launch while the firm entered talks with Japan's Shiseido Company Ltd. to create a cosmetics line. Additionally, after the success of its website fashionshow, Victoria's Secret raised the bar and took its spin on fashion to prime-time television. Its first-ever televised fashion show, aired by ABC in November, stirred controversy when concerned viewers complained to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) about the "indecency" of the scantily clad models. Fortunately for Victoria's Secret, neither the FCC nor most of viewing public found the showing indecent. On the contrary, millions tuned in and enjoyed the provocative parade.By 2002 there were about 2,300 Victoria's Secret boutiques in the U.S., and its racy and lacy catalogues were mailed to more than 350 million households annually. Its stores had become as much about attitude and indulgence as undergarment needs—women loved the sexy, ultrafeminine innerwear, and it made them feel sexy and beautiful regardless of their age, size, or inclination.Alessandra AmbrosioMarisa MillerDoutzen KroesHeidi KlumBehati。
