It wasn't very pretty, though, a characteristic that many of the "big" ones share. I wanted a pretty bra even though my husband's opinion on bras is: "It's what's inside that counts".

The Worst Fashion Combinations

From Fashion To Fundraising – History Of Rubber Bracelets

Rubber Bracelets, began as a punk rock anti-fashion, anti-establishment statement in the late 1970's - early 1980's. Originally, black, rubber 0-rings were worn as bracelets. These bracelets depicted the anti-jewelry sentiment, as rubber has no value whatsoever or status compared to precious metals such as gold, silver, and platinum. They became highly popular in the 1980's when they were worn by celebrities during their concerts and videos, but these bracelets weren't really rubber, they were actually silicone bracelets; today they are still made from silicone.
