How to minimize the appearance of large breasts.
So I got a post comment from Renee and she wanted to know if I had tips for top heavy full figured women. So I thought I’d break my response up into a couple of posts (and I have to take some liberties here since I don’t know if she wants the “girls” to be “up and out” or if she wants to know how to minimize the appearance of large breasts). So I am going to assume the later. Here are a few tips on how to minimize the apearance of large breasts:
- Invest in superbly fitted support or minimizer bra.
- Use interesting necklines, scarves and/or jewelry to shift focus upward to the face or use interesting bottoms and shoes/boots to lower the focus .
- Choose tops that end at/or below full hip to elongate the torso.
- Show some cleavage. Believe it or not using a little skin between the fabric reduces the appearance of size. (Try a turtleneck then a vneck and see for yourself.)
- Avoid breast pockets, short sleeves (especially with contrasting cuffs), tight or clingy styles which all just draw attention to the breasts.
- Avoid wide belts and waistbands that are worn over tops (i.e. tucked in) this shortens the torso.
- Be conscious of button down shirts. Make sure that they don’t pull and gap between buttons.
So aside from just knowing how to minimize the appearance of large breasts, I’ve got other posts for full figured women. Check out some of the old ones and keep a look out for some new one’s that I’ll write for Renee.
Make sense?
