I hadn't thought of that, because I assumed it was an actual bodice and not a bra (think strapless). Could be. I was actually thinking there would have been a ton more laterial torsion required --- it would have peeled the entire bra right to left, and her body would have twisted toward him, unless the fabric had been intentionally weakened (or, more likely, never attached in the first place). Try ripping your clothing, and see how much force is required. She should have been pulled off her feet, or off balance at least.
ETA: Is JT left handed? Need more info. Putting aside the effect on the wearer, I probably couldn't rip an eight-inch seam clean off in one stroke with my non-dominant hand. Certainly couldn't manage it if all I was "expecting" to do was yank the buttoned portion off the leather outer garment.
