How to make heavy breasts appear small

Lingerie

 
 

GO FOR:  

Bandeau bras:

Bandeaus are a good option as they help to flatten your huge bust.               

Minimizer bras:

Minimizer are a wardrobe essential for women with large breasts who have a cup size of 34 C or a D cup or more. They are designed so as to make your breasts appear a few inches smaller than they actually are. 

They may compress and re-shape your breasts to make them look about 2 inches smaller. 

Racerback bras:

These may provide some support your breasts. 

AVOID:

Bras with thin straps and lace-cups as they don’t  provide enough support.


 
 

Necklines

 
 
 

GO FOR:

Deep V- neck line

It will help you flatter the heavy bust.

 
Crew necks:

This neckline is high, round and closed all around the neck. It is named after the neckline found on the crewmen’s jeresy. This is usually collarless and fits tightly at the base of the neckline. This style is a usual pattern with knitted fabrics.Good for Heavier-set women. 


Sweetheart neckline:

The sweet-heart neckline suits women of all shape, size and body-type. 

The sweetheart neckline is ideal for women with both, small or large bust size. The neckline provides modest and considerable coverage to the breasts and helps create support. 


Avoid:

Boat-neckline, halter-neck, turtle neckline and keyhole neckline.They don’t work for your body type.

 
Cowl:
Volumnous women with a fuller body may appear larger in this neck-line. So, they should avoid wearing the neckline. 
Keyhole necklines: may show a lot of cleavage. It may also help you accentuate your bust area.Therefore, women with larger bust-size (apple body type) must avoid wearing this neck-line unless they aim to achieve the look.
