Big Uplift: Town Brassiere Shop Keeps Size 52D in 1948 Line
Germantown New York profiles a small Top Form Brassiere Co shop making size 52 D bras. Norma Sue Dolores Linda and Dottie stitch, sew and assemble each bra by hand in a neon lit room above the blocky Main Street. Supervisor Sue Bruch notes demand has fallen from 10,000 dozen annually to 5,000 dozen. Seams workers are local women earning union wages, about four to six dollars an hour for seven hours daily. The shop has endured since 1948 and remains a tight knit family business in a town rarely touched by progress.
