• Coat for busty people. How to visually reduce breasts: little secrets

    04.07.2020

    Our heroine Olga Lukinskaya recently detailed, why large breasts are a big problem, and how she decided to reduce them surgically. The material evoked a great response from readers - many recognized themselves in it. It turned out that the problem of finding suitable underwear and clothes in one way or another concerns everyone whose breast size is slightly larger than three. “With large breasts, the question of ‘like it or not’ is not asked at all, you buy what you can fit into,” noted in the comments. It would seem: more and more beautiful body-positive, plus-size and ordinary people are becoming the heroes of the generation, and the search for bras for large breasts is still a quest that takes a huge amount of effort and time. We asked seven girls from different cities, who are familiar with this problem first-hand, to tell us how they deal with it.

    At the age of 19, I lived with size 1 breasts, and it was wonderful. I could walk around in a T-shirt or T-shirt without a bra - it didn’t look provocative and didn’t create problems like being harassed on the street. Purchases underwear or, for example, swimsuits, also did not pose any problems. This is not the first time I have been remembering these times with nostalgia: first my breasts grew to size B, then to C, and for the last couple of years I have been living in a size range between D and E.

    I remember very well how the spring before last I realized that I had large breasts. I went to a store of a well-known brand, picked out a dozen bras in the usual size 85 C - and in the fitting room I couldn’t fit into any of them: my breasts were falling out of the fabric, the straps cut painfully into my body, except that everything on the back was fastened normally. I couldn’t blame myself for the fact that I suddenly gained weight - I just lost a lot of weight that spring, but I left the store in tears and curses. I came to another store, much more modest, and complained to the saleswoman, saying, can you imagine what kind of cattle your competitors are, they are small in size. “Choose your bras, we’ll pick everything up now, don’t worry,” said the saleswoman. - This one, this one and that one? Size 85 C? Go to the fitting room, I’ll bring it for you.” Two of the three cases I chose fit perfectly, the tears dried up, I bought them, also taking a dozen panties, and left happy. And at home I discovered that the bras I bought were size D.

    I was always (even in the “average” third size) surprised that with the “cult of large breasts” existing in society, it is quite difficult to find suitable underwear and clothes. Even though I’m not yet the best size, I rarely buy a bra because it just seems beautiful to me - I’m looking for something that will fit and won’t rub. Because they sew on people like me to “support” them, and not to make them look beautiful. By the way, I had more luck with sports underwear - maybe because in its case I don’t think about aesthetics at all and can buy “so that it lasts” in “Sportmaster” or in the clothing department of some supermarket. And sometimes I wear it not for sports - sports bras chafe less often and are generally comfortable.

    My case is a little simplified by the fact that I am generally curvy and plus size- Russian size 50–52. Here, by the way, there is also a huge contradiction: I don’t find my sizes in most mass market stores in Moscow. This is surprising: I’m a normal, large, curvy girl, I go out into the street, go down to the subway and see a lot of women like me, and a lot of those who are bigger than me. But we don’t exist for hangers and store counters. On trips to Europe, I always note (eviscerating my credit card) that in the same stores the size range is much wider and there is more choice. Even if this is the Baltics, where there is quite a cult of slimness and women seem slimmer than Muscovites.

    So I just don’t go into most stores, at all, what’s the point of teasing? A huge salvation is Marks & Spencer, they sew very cute things for large (and busty) ladies, not motorcycle covers. They also have spacious fitting rooms in which the air conditioning works properly. It seems to me that sixty percent of my wardrobe comes from there; I buy simple underwear there. I can find things in H&M, Zara, but in the men's departments.

    Online stores are a big help: Bonprix, Lamoda (it’s cool that Lamoda has the opportunity to try it on and immediately return it to the courier if something doesn’t fit). Recently - I'm slow - I discovered ASOS Curve and I'm delighted with both the clothes and the way they fit. I will definitely try and buy underwear there.

    I have a breast size of 8. For a very long time now, finding clothes and underwear has been a problem for me. I started experiencing this in my senior year. The shapes began to develop quickly, and I realized that I was different from most girls in my size. This embarrassed me, I began to hunch over, wore only sports underwear and put on clothes in several layers to hide these forms. I grew - and my forms grew too. At the institute, I was faced with the fact that the choice of underwear for me became very limited: it was very difficult to find something cute and comfortable.

    The mass market does not sell such sizes, all sorts of stores like “Wild Orchid” and “Bustier” either - and here Belarusian lingerie Milavitsa came to the rescue. My mother, who also has quite large breasts, told me about her. This brand turned out to be a lifesaver. Quite nice, high quality and very affordable lingerie. I can’t say that there is a lot of choice for me, but at least there is one. I shop there every 2-3 months, as the linen wears out quickly. It is very important that the straps are thick and do not cut into the shoulders, the cups are only soft and fairly closed, and the bones are strong. Over time, I realized that I was less and less interested in the aesthetic appearance of underwear, it was much more important that it be comfortable, since large breasts and uncomfortable underwear cause terrible discomfort. Big problem with swimsuits. I probably had four of them in my entire life, and I treasured each one like the apple of my eye. It’s almost impossible to find anything in Moscow; the last time I found something in my size was in Spain at the Triumph store, I bought two at once. It is impossible to buy sets at all, because the top is always larger than the bottom.

    Another problem is sports underwear. I do a lot of sports, and it is important for me to feel comfortable, otherwise the activity brings pain. Sportswear big size is expensive, from 7 to 12 thousand rubles. I liked the Panache brand the most. My mother also told me about her. The most difficult thing was during pregnancy and breastfeeding - my breasts became three sizes larger. I no longer fit into my regular underwear, and a friend told me about the Anita brand, only there I could find underwear in my size, and it was for nursing. The brand is quite expensive - a set costs from 5 to 10 thousand rubles. I bought two for myself and wore them throughout my pregnancy and nursing.

    As for clothes, I am also very limited here, but there is still a choice. I already know the styles that suit me and I know exactly what I need when I walk into a store. If I wear a wide top, then the bottom should be narrow, and vice versa. If I find a top that fits - and that's the main problem - I often buy it in several versions. I buy clothes, as a rule, in the mass market. I really love Uniqlo. I mostly buy clothes in Russia, sometimes while traveling and almost never in online stores, since I need to try on everything. I’ve never sewn to order, I don’t want to bother like that.

    On the one hand, I’m even glad that I’m limited in the choice of clothes - it helps me not make hysterical purchases and not clutter my closet, but it’s still upsetting that modern fashion is focused on small breasts and women with large shapes somehow feel disadvantaged and limited. I even had the idea to create basic wardrobe for girls with large breasts, maybe I will implement it someday.

    I've always had big breasts. At the age of 13, I was already proudly a size 2, from 20 I was a D - and I thought that it was not easy for me to buy clothes. Three years ago I gained weight, my breasts grew to E - and I realized how much I was mistaken. The world has truly turned upside down. I am not yet plus-size, and the size L of almost all average brands has become too small for me only because of the chest. In online lingerie stores, where I had some difficulty finding D, it turned out to be almost impossible to find E.

    Among democratic brands I have always loved Etam underwear - as it turned out, in their basic collections they have size E, in the spring I even bought cheerful colored bras there that fit surprisingly well. With a little more effort, I found a good bra at Intimissimi. Also, with the recent updates, the consultants at Victoria’s Secret helped me a lot, they are clearly well prepared for correct selection linen With an incredible variety of assortments, the percentage of what will suit your needs is small. big breasts, but you can find it.

    I have also ordered lingerie online more than once from my favorite ASOS - it depends on the brand, depending on the brand, but I haven’t found mine yet. But at least the Internet admits that there are beautiful lingerie larger than size D. ASOS itself recently launched the Fuller Bust collection - just for large breasts, but my experience with one order from this collection has so far been unsuccessful: despite the declared E cup, the bust I was close to a friend with size D. Speaking of the brand, I also order most of my clothes there, focusing on more or less safe styles. Items directly from the ASOS brand themselves arrived without surprises in the sizing chart.

    Almost all the clothes are still a little small in my chest. I once had a seamstress with excellent taste and golden hands, whom I could completely trust, but she moved to live in another country, and I won’t start looking for a new one. This is, of course, a lifesaver. It is clear that in order to sew everything individually, you will not have enough money and time, especially since fabrics have now become very expensive, but some iconic things - a good coat, a jacket that fits your figure, a really comfortable beautiful everyday dress or a dress for a special occasion - are worth it spent funds.

    I'm often upset that I can't buy things that I like so much on a hanger or in a picture. Slightly girlish styles look pornographic (even if they don’t have cutouts), vintage-style clothes are incredibly simplified by large breasts and made “rustic”, necklines are almost never delicate, I won’t repeat the impossibility of wearing clothes without underwear.

    The fact that going for new clothes and underwear is a difficult quest became clear in the first or second course. At school I was a size two or three, and then my chest grew to a size four or five, although my hips remained narrow, the difference between the top and bottom of a size four.

    It is very difficult to find a long down jacket or dress - either it doesn’t fit on the chest, or you can squeeze in a couple more butts in the hip area. Many dresses, shirts, blouses and tops simply do not have darts. It’s amazing how there seems to be a cult of breasts in the world, but they make it all about some androgynes. Previously, knitwear and polyester helped out, but now I have gained quite a lot of weight, I have to wear loose T-shirts and shirts and dresses a la hoodie.

    I buy underwear from DIM and Golfstream. I used to really love deep necklines, so I bought regular underwire bras large sizes. Now the breasts have become even larger, deep necklines look completely vulgar, and the bras don’t last long on me - the straps quickly become unusable, even wide ones. It's time to give up cleavage and wear special bras for large bust- with really wide straps, maximum support and a wide band under the bust. Moreover, I want to buy a minimizing bra (Due to a special design, such a bra visually reduces the size of the breast. - Ed.), I hope it makes choosing clothes easier.

    I dress most often in second-hand stores, but sometimes I buy something at Promod, H&M and Stokmann. In general, I can’t single out certain brands - in my situation I have to buy something that fits and doesn’t disfigure my figure. I don’t order clothes on the Internet, again due to non-standard parameters. Sports were banned many years ago by medical indications so the question is sportswear and the laundry passed me by.

    From five to nine years old I did rhythmic gymnastics at the Palace of Pioneers. At the age of ten, it finally became clear that I would not become the stick girl that gymnasts seem to be. At eleven I had size 2 breasts. Well, okay.

    Mass market in Russia and to a lesser extent in the world at the sight of people with non-standard figure metaphorically covers his eyes with his palms and shouts “I’m in the house!” It doesn’t matter what exactly makes you different - petite girls in the comments will probably tell you how fun it is to try on XXS and realize that it’s two sizes too big. I'm on the other side of that spectrum. I can probably find a tight T-shirt in the nearest store, but the search for a bra for a long time looked like this: “Do you have a cup larger than D? No? All the best". Repeat ten times. Pay up.

    Not only do I have large breasts, I also have a narrow chest. Size charts brands that are responsible for large size underwear in Russia usually start with a coverage of 85 centimeters. But I need 75, better even 70. In addition, almost no one explains to girls how to choose the right bra - the saleswoman may occasionally ask: “Well, how do you like it, doesn’t it press?” - but that's all. How the bra should actually fit is unknown. Some advice is passed on from mouth to mouth, they say, if you jump in the fitting room... Or if the bra in the back does not creep up... No, wait, on the contrary, if it does!

    In fact, the bra shouldn’t be held up by the straps at all, it shouldn’t slide up either, and if you jump in it, you don’t need to adjust anything. How did I know this? Thanks Reddit! About a year ago I came across the ABraThatFits reddit and was surprised to learn that I have been wearing the wrong size bra my entire life - just like most girls. In Russia, not everyone knows how breast size is measured in general. For example, what is “four”? Four of what? Four apples? Four hours of searching for a sconce where nothing falls out of the cups? Girls most often think that an A cup means “small breasts” and a DD cup means “huge breasts.” ABraThatFits has a whole gallery of girls who wear D and DD cups, and not all of them resemble Pamela Anderson.

    I read the forum for two days in a row and, using a special calculator, found out that I need to wear a bra size 75J. J, you understand! Just because of the narrow chest. Of course, there are no such sizes in Russia, and I have been ordering underwear on the Internet for a year now - fortunately, I have hardly bought clothes in Russia for a long time. There's just one more item in the package. I order bras - both regular and sports - on Amazon, each time I study ABraThatFits and the bra review database on the Bratabase website, because different models Different brands differ in the distance between the straps, the width of the cup and much more.

    Once, even before I met ABraThatFits, I went to Primark in London and almost burst into tears: a cheap clothing store in central London sold bras with an F cup, but stores with panties costing five thousand in Moscow did not. This really frustrates me: I specifically have the resources to find and order the right bras, but how many people don't? How many people suffer, constantly adjusting uncomfortable bras, are embarrassed that the cup puts pressure on their chest, and do not wear the clothes they want because of this?

    It should be immediately noted that I live in the colorful southern province - in Krasnodar, and before that - in very small towns. By the end of school I had my current size 75 E. Having realized back in adolescence, that my figure, frankly speaking, is non-standard, at the age of fourteen I went to learn to sew. The classes gave an idea, first of all, about technological processes - without much talk and theorizing, we sewed clothes. Moreover, of any complexity - so, it was in those distant times that I learned to sew summer dresses with a bustier top or a loop strap that can be worn naked.

    The acquired skills, on the one hand, turned out to be extremely useful, on the other hand, they hopelessly spoiled me: looking at the prices of clothes in stores, even in the mass market, not to mention “high” brands, my reaction most often ranges from raising my head in surprise eyebrows to grin. Well, an ordinary two-seam a-line skirt can’t cost three thousand rubles, or a simple dress made of nasty fabric can cost seven. I still sew clothes, although not in such quantities as in my youth. Although some rituals are unshakable: sewing, for example, an outfit for New Year- already a tradition. Therefore, I buy things mainly from the categories “it’s more expensive to sew” or “I definitely can’t sew something like that.”

    There are no problems with buying knitwear, sweaters and jeans, especially since I am “normal” at the bottom. Krasnodar is a city of shopping and entertainment centers, the leader in their number per capita in Russia. This makes the strategy for finding shirts, jackets, dresses and underwear in non-standard sizes very clear: stay away from shopping centers. Small shops, inconspicuous signs, residential areas instead of the center - these are the treasures. Unfortunately, due to the rapid growth of shopping malls and shopping centers, there are fewer “kids”, but still. The word “brands” is hardly appropriate here - I pay attention to the fabrics, style and tailoring, and cut off any tags right away. I have zero brand dependence; I don’t worry at all about the lack of items with loud or popular labels in my wardrobe.

    With lingerie, the story is special: one cannot help but rejoice that now there are many more opportunities. Once upon a time there was one and only Milavitsa - there was and is, I hope there will be - and three eternal colors (black, white, flesh). Now, besides her, there are other manufacturers, and owners of small shops, who bring absolutely incomparable underwear of all colors and levels of support and elegance from the Baltic states, Italy, Poland, France - and at the price of underwear, not a car or a Boeing. Once, out of idle curiosity, going into a small room with a sign “Underwear” in the tax office building, I, not believing what was happening, tried on for an hour, as it seemed to me, a third of the assortment and ended up taking away four sets incredible beauty And unusual flowers. The owner of the store responded so heartily to my delight and surprise that she gave me a discount, gave me my cell phone number, and after a while informed me about the store’s move and a new address.

    Swimwear and sportswear have been a real problem for a long time. I remember, back at university, I had fun going into the coolest shops and boutiques and confidently declaring: “Find a swimsuit for me and I’ll buy it. It doesn't matter how much it costs." Well, yes, it’s mean, of course, to treat naive salespeople like that, who sincerely tried to find something for me, but I needed a swimsuit. I regularly won champagne from friends who didn’t believe that swimsuits for 75 E did not exist. Later, on a local forum, they suggested to me the coordinates of a shop where they would definitely help me - and they really did. Now the situation has improved so much that I bought my last swimsuit in one of the villages, almost a resort, without any difficulties at all and with the opportunity to choose from several models.

    I most often buy sports underwear from Decathlon. Although I bought the very first bras and high-end support bras abroad, at the Nike brand store in Lille, France. In general, eyes have opened up abroad - you can find something in any lingerie store, even a chain store. However, there are also a lot of opportunities with clothes - either in stores or on street “casualties” there is something to buy, from a tartan skirt for 1 euro to a summer cotton sundress, which a luxurious African queen from among the shoppers will closely examine and click with delight: “ Très belle couleur!” I haven’t been to Asian countries, but in Europe, no matter where I end up, there is always something to choose from. Sometimes I think that my non-standard size and living in a Russian province would save me from bankruptcy - had I had a standard A or B, or even lived with non-standard E-F in Europe, I would definitely go broke buying clothes and underwear!

    In general, I believed so much in the advantages of the consumer era that I recently began making purchases on the Internet - carefully and a little at a time. This fact in itself is a small step for all progressive humanity, but a huge step for me personally. Previously, I had never even considered the possibility of buying something without trying it on. However, I bought a couple of denim dresses from ASOS, from the regular line (on one I had to add a couple of extra seams - it took a couple of minutes, but they fit like a glove), and simple cotton bralettes (for “testing” online sizes) - from Bonprix, after idly leafing through a catalog abandoned in the mailbox.

    Perhaps, clothes and underwear remained the only problem for me personally - but now they have ceased to be such. My breasts do not cause me any physical or moral discomfort, the era of youthful complexes is over, and properly selected physical activity (in strict accordance with the doctor’s instructions) brings only relief and joy. The path to coming to terms with my own body has been long and difficult, but now it seems that I am finally at a point of balance. I hope for a long time.

    Are you the owner of gorgeous breasts, but don’t know how to proudly carry them through life without experiencing inconvenience or embarrassment? You don't like that with quite slim build Does your massive top make your figure look heavy, and does your waist get lost? In addition, do you constantly balance on the brink of sexuality and vulgarity - a little brighter outfit, a little deeper neckline and you already get sidelong glances? Do you want to avoid such situations? Then, let's learn how to choose the right dresses for large breasts in order to beautifully play up the appetizing shapes.

    Those girls who are embarrassed by large breasts often try to wear a smaller bra to reduce the size of their bust. But this is very harmful to health and unsightly distorts the shape of the breast. Correctly selected bra should fix the breasts and give them a beautiful shape.

    For full breasts, choose dense bra materials, and save lingerie made of delicate lace for a special moment. Choose a bra with a one-piece cup so that it covers the entire chest, not half. This way you can avoid a vague breast contour with folds and unevenness, and also not worry about your breasts falling out of your bra.
    ———
    The straps and waistband of your bra should be wide enough to support the weight of your breasts and lift them up, giving your breasts a more flattering appearance. Wide straps do not cut into the skin, this will help avoid the unsightly caterpillar effect on the back and shoulders, as well as relieve stress on the spine.

    Another nuance - in order to gather and make breasts that are widely spaced neater, you need to choose a tight bust, with hard underwires and straps. In turn, the straps should be wide at the base so that the breasts do not look into different sides, but approached the center.

    Do not wear dresses with ruffles, frills, sequins, bows, or pockets at the top - these decorative elements will add volume and heaviness to your top. Cowl necklines also add bulk to the chest; avoid large collars, pleats and drapes on the top of the outfit, as well as corsets.


    The most important thing is that the decoration does not reach the level of the most protruding part of the chest, but ends higher. If it is level, it will add volume. If it ends lower, then most likely it will not lie on the dress, but will hang in the air, as if separately from the whole image.

    Do not allow the jewelry to be so long that it gets stuck between your breasts.

    The sleeve should not end where the chest protrudes as much as possible, as the horizontal line will increase, which will visually make the chest even larger. Your sleeve option is a narrow ¾ sleeve or long sleeve. This type of sleeve will balance your figure better than short sleeves or no sleeves.

    But if you still want to wear a short sleeve, then use one that ends above the chest line. And remember, the absence of a sleeve will make your breasts appear larger. Don't wear huge puffy sleeves or sleeves that end in ruffles.


    The fabric of the dress, if it is knitwear, should be dense, not stretch and hold its shape, this will help hide figure imperfections as much as possible. In this case, it will be ideal if the fabric can softly fit (but not tight) the figure without adding extra volume.

    There is no need to give up thin, flowing fabrics. But! One thing to remember important rule- dresses from thin fabric It’s better not to make them fitted. Such a dress should be slightly loose throughout the entire figure, fall in soft folds and hide the chest.

    But dresses made of stiff fabric (denim or suiting fabric) are better to choose according to your figure. Thick knitted dresses should also be avoided.

    Be careful with prints. For example, you chose a dress made of elastic fabric with a vertical stripe that hugs you tightly. Thus, in the chest area the strip can stretch more than on other parts of the body, and this will create additional volume.

    Avoid shiny fabrics that will reflect light and draw attention to your bust. Please note that sloping shoulders also make the chest appear larger, so use small padded shoulders.

    A row of buttons in contrast to the dress, in the upper part, will also distract attention from the chest. Choose dresses so that they fit your figure clearly, but do not tighten or cling to it.

    Baggy dresses are also not suitable. Both options, when clothes are too tight and when they are too loose, can add unnecessary volume.

    When breasts are large, they add size general appearance your body. Plus, a disproportion is created between the voluminous top and narrow bottom, this is especially noticeable in girls with narrow hips. That is, it turns out to be Chupa Chups on a stick.

    In order to balance the top and bottom you need to: visually lengthen the torso, enlarge the pelvis, reduce the chest.

    Add volume to the hips very carefully, it should be added by layering light sheer fabrics or drapery.

    The hem of the dress should not be too fluffy, because a voluminous top and voluminous bottom are a “woman on a teapot” silhouette. That is, instead of the desired effect, you will get additional unnecessary volume.

    It is best to choose dresses that do not have a contrast between the top and bottom; this will elongate your figure and make you slimmer.

    Which dress styles are ideal for girls with large breasts and which are not?

    A wrap dress creates diagonal lines that visually narrow your chest due to the asymmetry and V-neck. Due to the smell, the waist looks slimmer. And due to the asymmetry of the hem, the hips widen and the correct proportions of a voluminous top and a narrow bottom are created.

    It is very convenient when the smell is not real, but false. This gives you confidence that the dress will not open more than you need it to.


    A sheath dress is ideal for girls with large breasts; it will balance the figure well and emphasize the waist. The dress will meet your expectations if it has a semi-fitting silhouette. The preferred length of the dress is mid-knee or slightly lower.

    An A-line dress will ideally hide your breasts. But you need to pay attention to the fact that the fabric of the dress gently bends around the chest, this will make the silhouette slimmer. The length should not be too short (remember the Chupa Chups effect).



    Dress with a circle skirt

    A dress with a circle skirt is suitable if it is of a suitable length, i.e. knee-length or slightly below. This is explained by the fact that in a short dress with a circle skirt, the upper part looks even more massive, which especially spoils girls with short stature. The hemline is moderately full to balance the figure without adding extra volume.

    Dresses with contrasting inserts will perfectly hide your breasts and add elegance to your silhouette.

    In just such a dress, there is a very high probability that you will look like Chupa Chups, because any version of the dress with the waist shifted towards the top will emphasize the size of the breasts.


    If you have large breasts Never braid your hair into a tight bun or wear a ponytail. Do voluminous hairstyles and styling, or simply let your hair down. Otherwise, you will end up with a disproportionate silhouette - a small head on large shoulders. A hat with a brim looks very elegant on a girl with large breasts.


    Conclusion

    It is very difficult to choose dresses for large breasts without looking vulgar . But following our tips you can easily highlight your natural beauty. To make it easier for you to navigate, here is a short list of things to avoid:

    • Do not wear items on your chest that will add volume (patch pockets, frills, bows)
    • Beware of fabrics that reflect light (such as satin) and accentuate your bust.
    • Don't wear high-waisted dresses
    • Do not fasten belts or belts under your chest
    • Avoid a small crewneck at the base of the neck and a cowl collar
    • Pay attention to how much the dress print is deformed in the chest area
    • Dresses with thin straps are not your option
    • Jewelry on the neck should not be at the level of the most protruding part of the chest

    While others admire their attractive forms, the owners of large breasts themselves are not always happy about this fact. Fashion is always dominated by certain silhouettes, and clothes that could decorate large breasts are not always present on the catwalk, where the cut for androgynous models dominates.
    But for busty beauties, their bust is a reality that they cannot fit into this or that trend of their own free will: breasts simply exist, and that’s it. It requires constant support in the form of a serious underwired, full-coverage bra, mostly with wide straps, making you forget about all those tiny lace outrages that we see on models in lingerie catalogues. Impressive breasts are a rather difficult pleasure, and, in the most literal sense of the word, often even cause back pain.
    But the main problem of owners of large breasts is to search suitable clothing, because what suits most people with more or less standard figures can monstrously distort this beautiful silhouette.
    In fact, large breasts only emphasize our femininity, which is why it is so important to learn how to properly design them so that neither our sense of style nor self-confidence suffers.

    How to find your ideal silhouette to feel confident? How not to cross the line behind which vulgarity is hidden, but also not to go to the other extreme, completely hiding your significant advantages? Let's find out!

    Useful world map

    In 2016, a real world map was finally created, containing very interesting information. On it you can see in which places the owners of the largest breasts live (in English “larger than D cup”, a size larger than D is indicated in bright pink). As you can see, the CIS countries and northern Europe (Finland, Norway and Sweden) take the lead. So the question is, how to dress big breasts, remains very urgent for the Russian-speaking population of our planet.

    Large breasts: to hide or not to hide?

    Before we talk about the most flattering silhouettes for those with large breasts, understand your attitude towards them. The choice of clothing directly depends on whether you would like to emphasize this advantage or distract attention from it, somewhat minimizing its effect.

    It’s up to you to decide which approach is closer to you, but I, as an outsider and therefore an objective observer (I myself am not the owner of significant merits, so I can only judge from the outside), do not belong to the supporters of both extremes. I am for harmony. If nature has given such beauty, then, in my opinion, it cannot be hidden. But, at the same time, it is also better to avoid excessive protrusion, so that your silhouette does not look too caricatured.

    Let's look at the different approaches to presenting your impressive bust of its famous owners.

    The odious Kim Kardashian deliberately emphasizes this dignity, taking it to the extreme.

    I will not hide that this approach appeals to many men, because Kim also has a whole army of fans. But, you must admit, such a silhouette looks too grotesque, evoking cartoon characters. Jessica Rabbit, for example.

    The beautiful Christina Hendricks looks distinctly seductive on the red carpet and other social events. Of course, she cannot be compared with Kardashian in terms of the degree of vulgarity, but still, even with this approach, men are unlikely to look her in the face during communication.

    Paradoxically, in its Everyday life When the spotlights or photographers' cameras are not pointed in her direction, Christina often prefers the other extreme - she tries in every possible way to hide her tempting forms with the help of robes. But you can’t escape the paparazzi—thanks to them, we now know about it.

    As you can see, for busty women this approach carries a considerable amount of risk - in shapeless clothes that hide the transition from the chest to the ribs, such a figure looks several sizes larger. These photos clearly show that Christina in voluminous clothes seems plumper than we know her.

    Very slender, even thin women are especially good at hiding their large breasts. Recipe from Kirsten Dunst (yes, yes, don’t be surprised, she is the owner lush bust, who would have thought...) - wear baggy clothes and, most importantly, slouch more!

    That is, both of these extremes by and large do not work. What does that one look like? golden mean? It’s quite difficult to find harmonious images with Kim, but Christina is sometimes still able to present her curves in a very favorable light: they are not hidden, but also do not look grotesque due to their excessive protrusion.

    Kirsten, on the other hand, deliberately tries not to emphasize her breasts (this is not only my conclusion after viewing a bunch of her images, but also her own words in one of the interviews), preferring dresses or blouses with a slouch. But at the same time, if the actress emphasizes her waist, then she does not seem larger in such outfits. So everyone who is close to this approach can take note of this configuration method.

    Although, sometimes Kirsten can condescend to beautifully emphasize her curves.



    As you can see, in the case of such a presentation of a large bust (not only for Kirsten, but also for Christina Hendricks above), a fitted or close-fitting (but not extremely tight-fitting!) silhouette in the bodice area, as well as a V-neck and moderate neckline, work.

    Flattering silhouettes for those with a large bust

    If you are a fan of Kim Kardashian's style, then, in principle, you already know which silhouettes are winning for you. :) But if you still strive for some harmony, and would like to present your significant advantages in the most favorable light, avoiding a certain caricature and excess, then these tips will help you find your ideal silhouette.

    First of all, avoid any shapes that fall straight and hide your waist, turning your torso into a cube or parallelepiped.
    Any blouses, dresses and shirts with a straight silhouette will instantly add several kilograms to you. The transition from your chest to your ribs will not be visible, so it will look like you have a big belly hiding under your chest (first photo below).
    If you choose straight or voluminous jackets, try to wear them unbuttoned, along with a fitted top. A jacket like this with a straight or loose untucked shirt will also transform you into something more voluminous than you actually are (second photo below).

    That is why, unfortunately, advice on breastfeeding is not always suitable for owners of large busts.
    And basic tops, T-shirts and shirts will come in handy in your wardrobe, but it is better to choose them with a fitted or semi-fitting silhouette.

    So, the following silhouettes will look most advantageous on you:

    • close-fitting, but not too tight to avoid that same caricature (first photo below). There is a difference between a fitted and a very tight silhouette, that is, tight.
    • Loose but close fitting in the bust area. This will show the transition from the chest to the ribs (second photo). By the way, such a silhouette will help hide your tummy, if required.

    • Fitted silhouette. In this case, it can be quite loose, but it definitely needs an emphasis on the waist or under the bust (first photo below).
    • Any clothes with a wrap (but not too tight). It creates a V-shaped neckline that beautifully frames the chest, while focusing on the waist (second photo).

    For those with a stunning bust, it is quite difficult to choose a fitted shirt that will not treacherously unbutton in the chest area. Several options can be offered here.
    First: find a company that specializes in shirts of a similar cut. As you remember, it should also be fitted so as not to make you look bigger.

    The second option: find a good seamstress or learn to sew yourself in order to customize ready-made clothes or sew them completely according to your own measurements.

    Only such a shirt will fit you perfectly; it is unlikely that you will be able to buy a ready-made shirt in mass market stores that can fit well on a non-standard figure.

    If you decided on a loose top or shirt, then you can buy them in a regular store, but it is better to choose an option one size larger. In this case, they should be worn tucked into a skirt or trousers to define the waist. Or get out of the situation using a belt.

    By the way, more soft flowing fabrics are preferable in your case(second photo below) than hard cotton.

    For T-shirts, it is better to choose thicker knitwear, as well as close-fitting, but not too tight silhouettes (first photo below). The same goes for T-shirts.
    By the way, the straps of T-shirts should be quite wide.
    Tight-fitting tank tops made from thin jersey risk bringing you closer to Kim Kardashian's style, so be careful with them if that's not your goal (second photo).

    Of course, you should avoid details that increase the volume in the bust area: ruffles, flounces and frills. With them, your breasts will become huge and the proportions will be disrupted.

    Sleeves as an element of balance for those with a large bust

    Short sleeves often look rather ridiculous when paired with significant advantages. Long or ¾ sleeves will help balance out the silhouette.
    Compare how dresses with short and long sleeves of a similar silhouette look on the same woman with a large bust:

    You should especially be wary of short sleeves that reach the middle of your upper arm. They cut the arms horizontally at bust level, visually increasing this part in volume.
    Compare the fitted top with these sleeves and the long ones below on the same model:

    Also avoid raglan and kimono sleeves. It is best to opt for sleeves sewn in at the shoulder area, which do not distort the proportions.

    In hot summer weather, you want to wear sleeveless dresses and tops, but in this case the straps should be quite wide. And don’t forget about the beautiful moderate necklines that can decorate you. We'll talk about them now.

    Flattering necklines for those with a large bust

    It all depends on your attitude to this issue, as mentioned above. If you want to highlight your bust as much as possible, then various low-cut necklines, including a sweetheart neckline (first photo below), will help you with this.
    If your goal is to divert attention from the chest, then choose shallow round necklines or a boat neckline with a slightly draped bodice, but do not forget to focus on the waist (second photo below).
    The photo shows the same girl - but what a different effect!

    For adherents of the golden mean, it is beneficial to present your wonderful bust with a V-shaped neckline and a round neckline of moderate depth.

    Let's take a closer look at necklines for those with a large bust.

    Sweetheart neckline

    The sweetheart neckline looks very attractive in any case, as it blends with the curves of your body in the most natural way. This neckline creates the illusion of balance by emphasizing your bust, narrowing your waist and bringing your silhouette closer to an hourglass.
    A sweetheart neckline will suit a woman of any height and build. So you can safely use these heavy weapons if you want to emphasize your advantages.
    In combination with long sleeves or ¾ sleeves (first photo above), dresses and blouses with this neckline are also suitable for the office.
    A short sleeve, as you remember, enlarges the bust area and draws attention to the chest even more, so this option (second photo above) can be chosen by beauties with provocative intentions who want to highlight this dignity even more.

    Bob neckline

    A square neckline like this can also beautifully highlight the bust, but a lot depends on the cut of the dress or top. The risk is that a bob cut can treacherously reveal a bra strap, as well as visually widen the upper body. However, if you manage to find a dress that fits your figure well (or a top) and find the right underwear, then you won't need to be afraid of the above points.

    V-neck

    A V-neck is a more conservative and discreet option. He suitable for those who would like to moderately emphasize the chest, at the same time, slightly narrowing the silhouette. Yes, yes - the V-neck visually somewhat smoothes out the bust area.
    This neckline is also very comfortable because it prevents the fabric from being too tight on the chest, although you will still have to pay attention to the position of the dress or top in the shoulder area. The trick is to choose a non-slip fabric that is fairly thick.

    Since such a neckline visually narrows the silhouette, even a short sleeve will look good with it in summer.

    Round neckline

    Another suitable option for those who would like to emphasize their breasts without protruding them too much. It is better to choose a fairly close-fitting cut for a top with a round neckline, or tuck it into trousers or a skirt if it is loose.
    But a dress with such a neckline can be chosen both according to your figure and with wide skirt and an adjacent bodice.
    Balance the silhouette with long, 3/4 or elbow length sleeves. The latter will focus on a thin waist.

    Boat neckline

    Turtlenecks and any crew necklines visually prolong the area adjacent to the bust, making it disproportionately large, and can also make the chest appear flatter. But this does not mean that there is no way to wear such current turtlenecks for owners of large breasts: .

    As for the boat neckline, it itself can also increase the bust area if you don't use tricks to help balance the proportions. At the right approach such a neckline, on the contrary, will help to divert attention from the chest, making the bust less noticeable. So this cutout is for you if you would like to achieve a similar result.
    The trick is for the top or bodice of the dress to resemble a blouse with a slight slouch or drape, while the waist should be defined and the hips should be emphasized by a narrow skirt.

    Other details that balance proportions will also work well: a belt, a peplum, ruffles at the hips, well-tailored sleeves (long or ¾), drapery and/or a bow at the waist (photo below).

    As you can see, in all these photos, busty models do not seem like that at all, and all thanks to the boat neckline and accompanying details.

    Neck jewelry for those with a large bust

    Try to avoid long necklaces and pendants that hang unattractively from the instep of the chest area. Essentially, they should be located on the ribs under the breasts, but those with large busts are not always able to achieve this effect.

    Therefore, it is best to opt for short necklaces and pendants (up to 40 cm), ending at the collarbone. .

    Dresses and prints for those with a large bust

    All of the above tips can be applied to choosing dresses for those with a large bust. As for the actual cut of dresses, you have a huge choice from a whole myriad of styles that may suit you: dresses to fit your figure, shirt dresses, dresses with a fitted bodice and a wide skirt. But one of the most winning silhouettes is a dress with a false wrap. With a false one, since a real smell can cause some discomfort, risking opening at the most inopportune moment.
    Such dresses not only emphasize your breasts without going overboard, but also visually narrow your waist, beautifully outlining your wonderful shape.

    By the way, don’t be afraid of prints, especially if you don’t want to place much emphasis on your bust: the eye glides over the print, unable to focus on one place and visually outline the volume of your bulges. Thus, the print minimizes the impressive bust, making it less noticeable.

    And remember that the choice of a particular cut of a dress depends on your desire (and sometimes circumstances require it) to emphasize your advantages, or to minimize them somewhat.

    Jackets and coats for those with a large bust

    It is better to choose traditional jackets that are single-breasted, semi-fitted, with a deep neckline and narrow lapels. It’s good if the fabric does not contain a large number of elastane, this will provide a better fit on the figure.
    When buttoned, the neckline of the jacket should be located above or below the chest level in order to shift the emphasis from the chest to the collarbones or waist.
    An unbuttoned jacket visually narrows the silhouette, creating two vertical lines on the sides of your figure. The effect will be enhanced if you wear a fitted top in a contrasting color under the jacket.

    Try your best to avoid double-breasted jackets, coats and raincoats (such as trench coats), chest pockets, as well as all oversized styles.
    If you are still inclined to choose a voluminous jacket or coat, then it is better to wear it open, so that your slender silhouette is visible under it - in this case, you should wear a rather tight-fitting top.
    .

    Neat single-breasted jackets made of soft fabric with a belt at the waist. Such wrap-around jackets fit very nicely.

    Smooth, cropped, tailored jackets without lapels will also look good, both buttoned and unbuttoned. Such jackets will especially adorn short women with an impressive bust.

    Many busty beauties shy away from the biker jacket type, but in fact, this item may be your favorite as it has a fairly fitted silhouette. The main thing here is that the zipper is on both sides of the jacket. The leather jacket looks good even unbuttoned.

    I hope these little secrets help For those with large busts, choose the perfect clothing silhouettes for you, which can beautifully highlight your shapes without distorting your proportions or making you look bigger.

    And no matter what people from the fashion world say that the neckline is not relevant now, that the H silhouette is the most trendy, etc., feminine forms, and especially lush breasts, will always remain beautiful in the consciousness and subconscious of most normal people ( especially men!). So don’t fall for the tricks of fashion marketers who force you to bashfully hide your assets, like poor Kirsten Dunst, but proudly show them to the world, not forgetting to decorate them beautifully with the help of clothes and simple techniques described in this article. Be beautiful and confident!

    Dear readers! In the following articles you will find recommendations on what to wear with pajama pants, and you will also learn everything about how to wear such a trendy White color this summer, and, of course, we will continue the conversation about color and contrast in appearance. Leave your feedback and suggestions, ask questions, I will be happy to answer them, write what else you would like to read about and subscribe to the news.

    While others admire their attractive forms, the owners of large breasts themselves are not always happy about this fact. Fashion is always dominated by certain silhouettes, and clothes that could decorate large breasts are not always present on the catwalk, where the cut for androgynous models dominates.
    But for busty beauties, their bust is a reality that they cannot fit into this or that trend of their own free will: breasts simply exist, and that’s it. It requires constant support in the form of a serious underwired, full-coverage bra, mostly with wide straps, making you forget about all those tiny lace outrages that we see on models in lingerie catalogues. Impressive breasts are a rather difficult pleasure, and, in the most literal sense of the word, often even cause back pain.
    But the main problem of owners of large breasts lies in finding suitable clothes, because what suits most people with more or less standard figures can monstrously distort this beautiful silhouette.
    In fact, large breasts only emphasize our femininity, which is why it is so important to learn how to properly design them so that neither our sense of style nor self-confidence suffers.

    How to find your ideal silhouette to feel confident? How not to cross the line behind which vulgarity is hidden, but also not to go to the other extreme, completely hiding your significant advantages? Let's find out!

    Useful world map

    In 2016, a real world map was finally created, containing very interesting information. On it you can see in which places the owners of the largest breasts live (in English “larger than D cup”, a size larger than D is indicated in bright pink). As you can see, the CIS countries and northern Europe (Finland, Norway and Sweden) take the lead. So the question is, how to dress big breasts, remains very urgent for the Russian-speaking population of our planet.

    Large breasts: to hide or not to hide?

    Before we talk about the most flattering silhouettes for those with large breasts, understand your attitude towards them. The choice of clothing directly depends on whether you would like to emphasize this advantage or distract attention from it, somewhat minimizing its effect.

    It’s up to you to decide which approach is closer to you, but I, as an outsider and therefore an objective observer (I myself am not the owner of significant merits, so I can only judge from the outside), do not belong to the supporters of both extremes. I am for harmony. If nature has given such beauty, then, in my opinion, it cannot be hidden. But, at the same time, it is also better to avoid excessive protrusion, so that your silhouette does not look too caricatured.

    Let's look at the different approaches to presenting your impressive bust of its famous owners.

    The odious Kim Kardashian deliberately emphasizes this dignity, taking it to the extreme.

    I will not hide that this approach appeals to many men, because Kim also has a whole army of fans. But, you must admit, such a silhouette looks too grotesque, evoking cartoon characters. Jessica Rabbit, for example.

    The beautiful Christina Hendricks looks distinctly seductive on the red carpet and other social events. Of course, she cannot be compared with Kardashian in terms of the degree of vulgarity, but still, even with this approach, men are unlikely to look her in the face during communication.

    Paradoxically, in her everyday life, when the spotlights or photographers’ cameras are not pointed in her direction, Christina often prefers the other extreme - she tries in every possible way to hide her tempting forms with the help of robes.

These photos clearly show that Christina in voluminous clothes seems plumper than we know her.

    Very slender, even thin women are especially good at hiding their large breasts. Recipe from Kirsten Dunst (yes, yes, don’t be surprised, and she is the owner of a magnificent bust, who would have thought...) - wear baggy clothes and, most importantly, slouch more!

    That is, both of these extremes by and large do not work. What does that golden mean look like? It’s quite difficult to find harmonious images with Kim, but Christina is sometimes still able to present her curves in a very favorable light: they are not hidden, but also do not look grotesque due to their excessive protrusion.

    Kirsten, on the other hand, deliberately tries not to emphasize her breasts (this is not only my conclusion after viewing a bunch of her images, but also her own words in one of the interviews), preferring dresses or blouses with a slouch. But at the same time, if the actress emphasizes her waist, then she does not seem larger in such outfits. So everyone who is close to this approach can take note of this configuration method.

    Although, sometimes Kirsten can condescend to beautifully emphasize her curves.



    As you can see, in the case of such a presentation of a large bust (not only for Kirsten, but also for Christina Hendricks above), a fitted or close-fitting (but not extremely tight-fitting!) silhouette in the bodice area, as well as a V-neck and moderate neckline, work.

    And basic tops, T-shirts and shirts will come in handy in your wardrobe, but it is better to choose them with a fitted or semi-fitting silhouette.

    advice from Yulia Bolshakova

    Dear readers, among your questions the same phrase often appears: “I have large breasts.” For me, living in the Western Hemisphere, where large breasts have become the second fetish after feminism, it was somewhat of a surprise to see that a fairly large number of Russian women consider this a drawback, or at least a feature of the figure that needs to be taken into account when choosing clothes.

    For a large part of humanity Large breasts are not considered a problem; moreover, they are considered a great asset and a sexual beacon. The number of breast augmentation operations is hundreds of times higher than the number of breast reduction operations. Although it is no longer a secret to anyone that a massive bust can cause various inconveniences and even pain in the back and legs.

    Why a big bust may be an aesthetic problem?
    First, it can create the impression of unwanted fullness. Secondly, large breasts make the waist weakly defined, especially in women of short stature.

    Thirdly, psychologically large breasts are associated with sexuality, good nature, gentleness, which is undesirable for women working in positions where they need to give the impression of authority, rigor and competence. How to get around these negative aspects and make large breasts an absolute and indisputable advantage of your figure?
    Choosing a bra

    Let me start with an intimate moment: choosing a bra. I think it’s no secret to you that poorly chosen underwear can distort the impression of the entire clothing ensemble and of the figure as a whole. You need to accurately choose your size - one, style - two, strap length - three. A bra should be comfortable and flatter your appearance at the same time; one does not contradict the other. Firstly, the bra should not cut in anywhere, create folds under the arms and across the chest. Second: have you noticed that cups of the same marking are different at different volumes - for example, “38 C” cups may be narrower and flatter than those of 40 C? Therefore, when trying on a bra, try not only the girth and size that you consider “yours,” but also the neighboring ones. For example, if you are 38-C, try also trying on 36-D and 40-C and B, take the time to try it on. Not all cut styles are suitable for all women; you need to find yours, and to do this, try on as many different ones as possible.

    Choose models with wide straps. A model where the strap smoothly transitions into a part that goes under the bust is very suitable for you. When choosing the length of the straps, do not let your breasts sag more than they should, but do not tighten them so much that you feel uncomfortable.

    According to the classical canons that artists use when drawing the human figure, the distance from the chin to the chest line is equal to the height of the head.
    Of course, in reality it greatly depends on your build, shoulder height, neck length and other things, but this measurement will give you a guide: approximately where your nipples should be located. If you let your bust sag, your waist will “magically” disappear.


    A beautiful neckline is your strong point How deep should the neckline of a garment be? Wear jackets either unbuttoned or buttoned, but never unbuttoned halfway through. The top button of jackets, blazers and cardigans should always be above the chest line or significantly lower in order to visually transfer the emphasis from the chest to the waist. The photo shows Victoria's Secret clothing for women with large breasts:

    and an unbuttoned jacket.

    Plain clothes (especially dresses) visually elongate the figure, making the figure slimmer. And the unbuttoned jacket in the photo on the right creates a vertical line, but does not fit tightly around the bust, which is good. A blouse in a contrasting color will be a great addition to such a jacket.
