Worn quite a few in my time. Bras have come a long way since my sister used to wear the " ice cream cone" ones though ! They were hard support,stitched round and round the cup and had a pointed shape . Really very funny to think of now but what a sexy bit of fashion it was then ! I love the lacy ones now.

I think 26 is for bed time only or role-play?
