To stop your boobs from bouncing all over the shop, and they are also supposed to stop the breasts from sagging prematurely. A good well fitting flopper-stopper also gives you a better shape/figure.

The breasts have very little internal support, being composed largely of adipose tissue (fat). It is believed that the primary anatomical support for the breast is provided by the Cooper's ligaments, with the skin covering the breasts offering some additional support. However, this anatomical support is usually insufficient to hold the breasts up (especially in older women), and to prevent movement of the breasts, which can cause pain and discomfort. Thus the primary reason for wearing a brassiere or similar foundation garment is to provide external support for the breasts, increasing comfort and mobility.
Bras are believed by some to help preserve the youthful shape of breasts (which naturally sag as women grow older), an opinion which is promoted by bra manufacturers[citation needed]. There is some doubt about this amongst the medical community, and while a woman may choose to wear a bra for comfort or for social reasons, there is no conclusive evidence to support the notion that a woman's breasts will sag lower over her lifetime if she doesn't wear a bra. [1]
Some medical professionals believe that wearing a bra can actually increase breast sagging later in life, because the chest muscles that support breasts are used less, and atrophy from lack of use. Health benefits of breast motion and sagging have also been suggested, but not substantiated[4]; for example, some researchers claim that breast movement, which is restricted by a brassiere, stimulates the lymphatic system and helps remove toxins from the body

The bra will keep the boobs in position, will not sway while walking or running, can show the size bigger than usual, attract men for them to enjoy like that several advantages. The advantages are more with bra with stuff under to show sexy.

Because they don't want there boobs bouncing around while they are doing something active (you know, like moving).
It brings them back up to where they're "supposed" to be after they loose their perk.
It makes them look bigger - if you wear the right kind
It creates cleavage - becasue everygirl knows that cleavage is unnatural, and is created with a little nudge froma bra
That's all I can think of right now.

To stop them bouncing around. Also, if the woman is quite well-endowed she could knock herself out and get a concussion if she started running without a bra.

Beauty and posture. I think it started with the girtle, with a tiny tiny waist and chest hanging out. Then everyone realized females couldn't breath, so they loosened it up. Now they are made for posture, especially if they are big. Also if they are big you need something to hold them in place, they move everywhere with every movement you take.

It was to enhance their figure. With a bra women could wear tighter clothing in a more attractive manner.

First you need a bust. You need a bra for support, otherwise your boobs would eventually be hanging around your knees
