Padding
In fashion, padding is material sometimes added to clothes. It is often done in an attempt to enhance appearance by 'improving' a physical feature, often a sexually significant one. Thus, there is padding for:
- Breasts (sometimes called falsies)
- The male crotch (usually called a codpiece)
- Height (usually in shoes and often called elevator shoes)
- Width of shoulders (in coats and other garments for men, and sometimes for women)
