Let’s be honest: clothes are not made for much larger bust size. We look at the photos of the models and think, “Wow, I like that piece!” But when we finally try it on ourselves, it looks completely different. It’s not our own fault, but it does create a fabulous outfit that you really like is sometimes quite difficult.
Some dress styles that look especially flattering for big-busted people include wrap, fit-and-flare and V-neck dresses. Bodycon dresses are great for showing off your figure, while belted dresses in the middle are a great choice for accentuating an hour glass silhouette. We also like the smoked style because they extend towards the chest. You may want to avoid anything with an open back or super skinny straps because you won’t be able to wear a supportive bra with them, but a dress with a built-in bra is the way to go!
