Hilarious effect for adult audiences!
 
Ask for a female volunteer from your audience. Two handkerchiefs are tied together, the knot is tucked (discreetly and tastefully) into the front of the volunteer's blouse, and you and your volunteer each hold the tip of a handkerchief.
 
You tell your audience that, on the count of three, you and your volunteer are going to pull on the handkerchiefs, making them pass right through her body. But when you each pull on a handkerchief, a BRASSIERE appears, tied between the handkerchiefs! Supposedly, it is the bra of the volunteer! It's a silly surprise that will make everyone laugh, including your volunteer!

You'll get everything you need:
  • two silk handkerchiefs
  • brassiere
  • printed instructions

Handkerchiefs are silk, and measure 18" diagonally.



Performance Ideas
 
Use a male volunteer if you want the effect to be ridiculous and totally nonoffensive.
 
Replace the bra with a bra you make yourself, a bra with THREE cups, to make the effect ridiculous.
 
In any case, use only an ADULT volunteer.
 
History and Trivia
 
The Baffling Bra effect was created by Howard Brooks in the 1930s, and is a variation of Frank Ducrot's 20th Century Silks, invented in 1900.
 
Though bras have been worn by women for thousands of years, the first bra design to be patented was in 1914 by a female American fashion designer named Mary Phelps-Jacobs, who worked under the name Caresse Crosby. Her design was, in fact, two silk handkerchiefs tied together!
