Abstract
A functionally coordinated nursing slip and nursing bra enable a working mother to breast feed her infant without having to make any indecorous motions that attract unwanted attention, in order to adjust her nursing undergarments. This is accomplished without affecting the stylishness, strap adjustability, or concealment otherwise provided by the slip. Similarly, the functionality of the nursing bra is not reduced. The coordination arrangement allows the opened slip to be fully supported by the nursing bra. The opened slip parts are retained handily by the coordinated bra so that reclosure is easily done. Thus all need for the mother to seek total privacy in nursing is eliminated, and she can nurse around other persons with minimal embarassment.
