The world's first push-up bra has been discovered in storage at a museum in London.

Bosses at the Science Museum say this 200-year-old lingerie is the first known example of what would one day become the WonderBra.

The lacy creation dates back to the early 1800s and even features special pads designed to give the added appearance of "Hello Boys" cleavage.

While the aged bra might not meet modern design standards, most men still wouldn't mind seeing Eva Herzigova in it. A spokesperson for Science Museum in London said that while we think of body modifying garments as being a recent innovation the bra shows they are centuries old.

The bra will only be on display during a special evening show at the museum next Wednesday, 28th April.
