WHAT DOES FALSIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Falsies

In fashion, falsies is a term traditionally used in American English to denote padding for use in a brassiere to create the appearance of larger breasts. The term has also, more rarely, been used for pads which create the appearance of larger buttocks. In both cases, there is a note of amusement conveyed by the term. In a specifically humorous context, the term refers to moulded plastic replicas of female breasts that may be worn by males for comedic effect. Typically held onto the chest by elastic straps or forming the top part of an apron, they are a perennial favourite amongst university students and at "buck's nights". In recent years, "falsies" has been used to mean false eyelashes.

Definition of falsies in the English dictionary
