Underwear believed to date from the 14th century has been uncovered in a castle in Austria, leading to an astounding discovery.
The bra may have been invented much earlier then first thought.
The find supports claims that the modern-day bra could have its roots in the Middle Ages.
Historians had previously dated the bra back as far as the 1800s.
The two ‘medieval bras’ found in the castle have a structure similar to modern lingerie – including cups and strings over the shoulders.
Archaeologists came across the underwear by accident, during a renovation of the medieval castle of Lengberg.
They also discovered textile pieces, musical instruments and a deck of cards.

He says he liked her for her great spirit, her feisty rebellious side and the fact that she’s ‘kind of wild’.
But although shamed director Rupert Sanders was talking about the acting qualities of his partner in extra-marital relations Kristen Stewart, he could surely have been referring to his betrayed wife, Liberty Ross.
The stunning model and actress has revealed her own feisty, rebellious side in a short film for luxury lingerie brand Damaris.

The sultry online video – directed by acclaimed commercial director Johnny Green for Damaris in association with mywardrobe.com – is called Packing Heat.
It features mother-of-two Ross, 32, as a gun-brandishing femme fatale who engages in a firearm battle with a second woman wearing pink Damaris lingerie.
In heavy, smudged, glittery make-up, Ross parades around a dark house wearing provocative black lacy Damaris lingerie, a short black dress and black stilettos.
Quoting Jean-Luc Godard, Green said: ‘All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl.’
Damaris founder and creative director Damaris Evans said: ‘When one of the world’s most acclaimed commercial directors calls you to make a knicker film for your brand… you say yes!
‘Knickers, a gun, explosions… clearly a man’s idea, and fantasy… and then Liberty Ross…that tops it off!’

Though the video was originally banned by YouTube for, according to Ross, ‘its hot model/lingerie/gun content’, it is now available to watch on the streaming site.
For Liberty herself, a wider range of
roles may soon be on offer thanks to the training she underwent for filming.
She said: ‘I went to a training centre where they teach actors to shoot for movies.They’d just trained Christian Bale for his Batman role. And I can now shoot pistols, rifles and AK47s.’
The video premiered at London’s Somerset House during London Fashion Week last September, but interest in it has piqued over the past few days in light of revelations that Ross’ director husband Sanders had an affair with Twilight star Kristen Stewart, the star of his new film Snow White And The Huntsman.
In the film, Stewart played Snow White and Ross played Snow White’s late mother.

I can’t really fathom why but I find this woman slightly unlikeable.

What horrible knickers!

The wife is definitely, and obviously, upgradeable. Definitely not stunning. I dare say Kristen is better looking.

Beautiful, natural, slender northern European body-type.

That video was sooo boring, and the lingerie is hideous! Hopefully, Liberty is better looking than she is in this video .In person, she makes me think of Dr.Spock – I wonder if they are siblings?They do have beautiful children, Rupert is very handsome in the video of him with Kristen.

Rupert has a womanizer face

The wife is really NOT that attractive. Kristen not exactly a classic beauty either, but she is more attractive than the wife.

Liberty is beautiful, and is also the mother of his children. Shame on him.
