Advise Needed for Dress for Big Boobs!!!!!!

Fiona L

Hi All,

I would love to get a really fab dress for my Xmas work party. Im only with this company 4 months so want to feel good on the night. Only thing is I had huge boobs!!!!!!! 34h.:eek:

Im a size 12-14. Have an hourglass shape. I have looked at the dresses on bravissimo but they are a bit mumsy for me. Im only 27.

does anyone have any advise on what brands or shops I could try for a dress to fit my boobs! Im at a loss

Thanks

I'm in a similar position - Monsoon has helped me in the past but they can be pricey.
What about buying one of Bravissimo's halter tops and wearing nice trousers with them?

I have a similar issue & I found this article good:
http://www.bukisa.com/articles/289372_dresses-that-suit-women-with-a-big-bustline
But to be honest, it took me trapsing the shops & trying a load of dresses on. I tend to steer clear of strapless or small straps - I either go with a thick strap or capped sleeves.
I did get a top in Coast with a frilly skirt from Lipsy for a wedding & it was one of the best outfits Ive found for my shape.
My advice is to try on as many as possible and see which ones you just feel good in.
good luck!

Hey Fiona L, I've the same complaint (won't say problem, I like my boobs!) - it's really frustrating going into a shop and trying on a lovely dress to find it barely covers my bust. Oasis are desperate for it and it's such a shame because they do some lovely v-neck dresses, but they are really ridiculously small in the bust (and I'm only an E cup). I tried on a gorgeous blue dress with black feathers in there the other day and the bust was so small that I couldn't even get away with it with a vest underneath, it didn't even cover half of my boobs!

As said above, Monsoon and Coast are good (order online and it's usually a bit cheaper). One of my friends has bought some lovely stuff from Bravissimo before, but I had a look at their website lately and it's a bit old at the moment alright. It's worth having a look another time because they do have some lovely dresses at times.

Monsoon is lovely, and if you are anywhere near there is an outlet in Kildare that has much better prices then elsewhere. There is also a coast outlet there too.
If you have a few quid to spend look at Diane von Furstenberg in BT

This is a big issue for so many girls, I hate when tops or dresses have a pre-conceived bust size! Monsoon are definitely worth checking out but you prob just need to talk a full afternoon and trawl the shops! Best of luck

It's really annoying when I'm trying to get clothes for work that don't make me look like I'm wearing a tent, but don't cost a fortune either. Monsoon or Coast are great for special occasions but I don't want to pay that much for my work clothes.
