If you took one look at the Ta-Ta Towels that went viral over the summer and thought, “Who would ever actually wear this?” you now have the answer: Rachel Bloom.
A quick refresher: The Ta-Ta Towel is a specially-designed bra (think: a terry cloth boob hammock that wraps around your neck and hoists up the girls) that’s meant to keep your boobs from sweating when it’s hot outside—or in Bloom’s case, when you’re getting ready for a scene on your hilarious hit TV show. The Crazy Ex-Girlfriend star (and all-around hilarious human being) tested out a black-and-white patterned version of the viral bra while on set on Monday, and posted a picture of the results on Instagram.
The verdict? Bloom’s actually into it.
“I am thrilled with my @tatatowels purchase and how well it goes with the hairstyle for the scene I’m shooting today,” she captioned the nearly-topless shot. “THIS frau is keepin’ it classy and dry!” To prove just how well the contraption worked, Bloom also posted a boomerang of herself on her Instagram Story in which she shimmies her Ta-Ta Towel–covered boobs. As the company’s slogan promises, they really do look “high and dry.”
In addition to being straight-up hilarious, Bloom’s Ta-Ta Towel test was also majorly inspiring for many women: Several followers reached out to the comedian in the comments section of her post, thanking her for making them feel more comfortable about having big boobs. “You’re the only person on earth that saves me from my larger than life(pun intended) big boob depression. I need one of these!” commented one user. “Role Model,” wrote another. One commenter also suggested that the Ta-Ta Towel should get its own song and dance number on this season of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, which is pretty much the best idea anyone has ever had, ever.
Leave it to Bloom, who once performed a rap all about the struggles of having a larger bust, to make a literal “over-the-shoulder boulder holder” look fabulous. You can order yours here (because I’m definitely not the only person who really, really wants one after seeing this).
