WHEN it comes to undoing bras, men andwomen are normally poles apart – fellasbecome fumbling passion-killers while girlsmanage it with ease.But that could be about to change. Top
London store Selfridges have launched thefirst bra with a MAGNETIC clasp.It fastens at the front, with the clips
disguised by a bow. Matching knickers arealso secured by magnets. But the under-wear, designed by French firm Dement, willset you back £165 for a set.JOEL FOX put the new bra to the test
against traditional hook-and-eye, U-loopand bow fasteners by seeing how quicklyhe and model Ingar Rose could undothem. Here’s how they got on.
HOOK & EYE
Pink bra, £20, TK MaxxHER – 11 secondsHIM – 2 seconds
THIS has to be good news forcouples who are brought togetherby magnetic attraction but letdown by frustrating fumblings.For many a promising coupling
has been thwarted by the humblehook and eye.It starts as an embarrassing and
inappropriate “err . . . I’ve donethis before – honest”.And as she decides to recite
the lyrics to I Will Survive, he pullsand pinches her back. Until she
eventually reaches around and upher back and in one movementmagically unclips the offendingitem.The magnetic bra’s a good idea
but the price tag will dampensteamy intentions.
