There was a time when a lady wouldn’t dare think of letting her brassier be shown in public. Nowadays it seems as though every young lady around is just letting it all hang out, like the Katie Holmes’ unmentionable outfit pictured above.
Every woman under the age of 45 is guilty of this act, but since when did your bra become a fashion accessory of note? Whatever the reason, Katie Holmes’ bra sure looks better then some of the other wardrobe malfunctions that have passed our way though.
