The invention of new, flexible but supportive materials allowed whalebone and steel bones to be removed. The emancipation or <a href="/wiki/Liberty_bodice" title="Liberty bodice">liberty bodice</a> offered an alternative to constricting corsets and, in Australia and the UK, the liberty bodice became a standard item for girls as well as women. </p><p>Men's underwear also continued to be developed.

One product manufactured by his firm was tightly fitting boxer shorts that resembled modern underwear. Though the company was bankrupt by the early 20th century, it had some influence on men's underwear design. </p><p>Underwear advertising first made an appearance in the 1910s. The first underwear print advertisement in the US appeared in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Saturday_Evening_Post" title="The Saturday Evening Post">The Saturday Evening Post</a></i> in 1911 and featured oil paintings by <a href="/wiki/J._C._Leyendecker" title="J. C. Leyendecker">J. C. Leyendecker</a> of the "Kenosha Klosed Krotch". Early underwear advertisements emphasized durability and comfort, and fashion was not regarded as a selling point. </p><p>By the end of the 1910s, Chalmers Knitting Company split the union suit into upper and lower sections, effectively inventing the modern undershirt and drawers. Women wore lacier versions of this basic duo known as the <a href="/wiki/Camisole" title="Camisole">camisole</a> and tap pants. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg/120px-WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg" decoding="async" width="120" height="305" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg/180px-WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg/240px-WarnerStyle70_1922.jpg 2x" data-file-width="313" data-file-height="796" /></a><figcaption>A corset over "step ins" and camisole, 1922</figcaption></figure> <p>In 1912, the US had its first professional underwear designer. Lindsay "Layneau" Boudreaux, a French immigrant, established the short-lived panty company Layneau. Though her company closed within one year, it had a significant impact on many levels. Boudreaux showed the world that an American woman could establish and run a company, and she also caused a revolution in the underwear industry. </p><p>In 1913, a New York socialite named <a href="/wiki/Mary_Phelps_Jacob" class="mw-redirect" title="Mary Phelps Jacob">Mary Phelps Jacob</a> created the first modern brassiere by tying two handkerchiefs together with ribbon. Jacob's original intention was to cover the whalebone sticking out of her corset, which was visible through her sheer dress. Jacob began making brassieres for her family and friends, and news of the garment soon spread by word of mouth. By 1914, Jacob had a patent for her design and was marketing it throughout the US. Although women had worn brassiere-like garments in years past, Jacob's was the first to be successfully marketed and widely adopted. </p><p>By the end of the decade, trouser-like "<a href="/wiki/Bloomers_(clothing)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bloomers (clothing)">bloomers</a>", which were popularized by <a href="/wiki/Amelia_Jenks_Bloomer" class="mw-redirect" title="Amelia Jenks Bloomer">Amelia Jenks Bloomer</a> (1818–1894) but invented by <a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_Smith_Miller" title="Elizabeth Smith Miller">Elizabeth Smith Miller</a>, gained popularity with the so-called <a href="/wiki/Gibson_Girl" title="Gibson Girl">Gibson Girls</a> who enjoyed pursuits such as cycling and tennis. This new female athleticism helped push the corset out of style. The other major factor in the corset's demise was the fact that metal was globally in short supply during the First World War.

The buttons attached to a separate piece of cloth, or "yoke", sewn to the front of the garment, and tightness of fit was adjusted by means of ties on the sides.

Union suit advertisements raved about patented new designs that reduced the number of buttons and increased accessibility. Most of these experimental designs had to do with new ways to hold closed the crotch flap common on most union suits and drawers. A new woven cotton fabric called <a href="/wiki/Nainsook" title="Nainsook">nainsook</a> gained popularity in the 1920s for its durability. Retailers also began selling preshrunk undergarments. </p><p>Also in the 1920s, as <a href="/wiki/Hemline" title="Hemline">hemlines</a> of women's dresses rose, women began to wear stockings to cover the exposed legs. Women's bloomers also became much shorter. The shorter bloomers became looser and less supportive as the boyish <a href="/wiki/Flapper" title="Flapper">flapper</a> look came into fashion. By the end of the decade, they came to be known as "step-ins", very much like modern panties but with wider legs.

For four weeks in July and August, as temperatures rose to 37C, men from the 1st Battalion of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment were made to wear three different types of vest underneath their bush jackets. In every case the men reported that string vests kept them cool and reduced "dragging or sticking" between clothes and skin from sweat. However, at the end of the experiment, only two of the men agreed to continue wearing the vest. The report concluded that "seemingly, all vests were to be regarded with suspicion" and that "efficient indoctrination" would be required to encourage men to wear them.
