The main component of the charity event was the auctioning off of wacky and creatively designed bras with original names and themes. "Yosemit-D Bra" and "Snorkeling in Bra-zil Bra" are two other examples.

Soroptimist, a global volunteer organization for career women who "work to improve the lives of women and girls," donated the auction proceeds to breast cancer healing and research, the Los Angeles Daily News reported.

One of the most attention-grabbing designs last Saturday reportedly was the "Op-Bra," constructed by a hair dresser named Joe DiMaggio, who is, in fact related, to the famous baseball star. It was a super-sized black bra containing large, old-fashioned globes in its cups.

The yearly event, which began in 2003, is the brainchild of Soroptimist President Kathy Lefkovits, the newspaper said.
