Any women with large breast can tell you there’s a fine line between a sensual look and a slutty one, a night spent captivating attention or one spent constantly tugging up your top. If you go to far then most people will either look away in embarrassment, or stare unashamedly. But when you get it right you look and feel amazing – sexy, stylish and confident.
The trick is to look sexy without going overboard. And that doesn’t mean cover up, because that’s lethal. A high neckline on a women with big breasts is instantly frumpy and even worse can lead to the dreaded uniboob where it seems you’ve got a shelf instead of two clearly defined breasts.
To get to gripes with your breasts remember the following:
- Your tops and shirts should be fitted beneath the bust line. A loose top will swathe you in fabric and make your breasts look huge. Find tops that follow the natural curve of your body.
- If you wear a low cut top then wear a modest skirt or pants to offset your silhouette. Nothing too tight either. There is nothing wrong with people noticing your chest, but there is more to you than fabulous breasts. If you go sexy on top, demur on the lower half is essential.
- One word – v-neck. Dresses, shirts, jackets, tops. All v-neck, or a deep round neck. Keep your neckline open. It will draw attention to your face and away from your breasts. And that doesn’t necessarily mean lots of cleavage. Work with what suits you but make sure your upper chest and neck is open.
- A deep neckline lengthens the vertical line of your upper body and will divide your breasts for a more natural and attractive look.
- Wear darker colors on your top than the bottom. BUT beware if you’re big on the bottom as well. I’ll talk about this more in a later post.
- An empire-line is a great top as it will lengthen your torso and lessen the impact of your breasts. BUT beware. Sometimes an empire-line top doesn’t give you enough cup size. The hemline should fit snuggly under your breasts at your narrowest part, never halfway up, or worse across your nipples. Pull it right down into place. You may find that you’re displaying much more of your breasts than you’re comfortable with.
- No fussy detailing. No pockets on shirts, no ruffles, nothing that’s going to add extra bulk. Try to stay away from prints as well. Wear them on the bottom half.
- Turtlenecks are a no-no. You’ll look like you swallowed a couple of melons. Also avoid slash neck or boat neck tops. In fact just avoid anything with a high neck line. It will not flatter you.
- A shirt is a great asset because you can vary the amount of cleavage shown. But, beware of the fit. If it bags around your waist go and get it tailored to fit more snuggly.
- Showing some collarbone along with your cleavage will widen you look and take the focus away from your boobs. Look for v-necks with a wider opening.
- Avoid off-the-shoulder tops. They widen the top half and draw attention. Your aim is to create an overall sexy look.
- Avoid short sleeves. The eye is drawn to where the fabric finishes, which in the case of short sleeves is your breasts. Go for three quarter length sleeves that will draw the eye to your waist and sleeveless styles that highlight your arms and the beautiful curve of your shoulder.
- Fine knits are great, t-shirts or wrap tops as they will cling gently and clearly define your waist.
- High waisted pants are out. They shorten and broaden the upper body.
- Add volume to your lower half with a straight skirt with flirty hem to balance out your stacked top half.
- A straight skirt will draw the eye straight up to the chest.
- Look for soft A-line skirts and dresses that finish on or just below the knee. They will add some structure to your lower half and balance out your breasts.
- Choose jeans with a low rise to make your torso look longer.
- Pockets on the hips of pants and jeans will add more structure to your bottom half and even you out.
- Choose a boot leg jean or pant. It will hug the curve of your thighs to avoid making you look badly fitted then flare out from the knee to offset your top half.
- Look for Jackets in a light weigh stretch fabric for a slimming effect. Avoid heavy fabrics like tweed or fur as they just bulk you up.
- Your waist needs to be emphasized in order to offset your breasts so avoid boxy jackets that do not skim the waist. Fitted is your watchword.
- No shoulder pads. They will add bulk where it doesn’t need to be and draw the eye to your breasts.
- Don’t wear belted styles as they make your breasts look even bigger. Sorry that trenchcoat is out, well, unless you wear it open.
- A longer line jacket will elongate your torso, always a good thing.
- Look for jackets with princess seaming. They vertical seaming will draw a slimmer line on your body and make your silhouette look instantly slimmer.
