Why are bras designed to open/closed from the back?

Why are bras designed to open/closed from the back? Isn't it much easier to have the latch or hooks located at the front for better access and easier to see?

Pag sa front kasi, baka daw malaglag yung sinusupport na object(s)

to make it stronger structurally.

the latch is a weak link in the support system.

have you ever imagined bras with the open/close snap on the side? mas madadalian sila magtanggal nun.

Designers should also think of a push-button.

not really, latches can be made pretty strong yet lightweight. Examples are the quick release systems used for bags, celfones, etc.

The fact is those hook type cannot take the same amount of load as more modern type of latching.
