A fuller bust is a classic feature of the archetypal feminine silhouette - many of the screen goddesses of Hollywood's 'golden years' were well endowed ladies with enviable curves.But many ladies today find having to dress a fuller bust difficult - how to avoid looking bulky and larger than you really are?
There are a few things to avoid:
- Don't wear high polo or crew necked sweaters or tops. An expanse of fabric over a larger bust can create a 'shelf-like' effect which visually adds an impression of weight.
- Choose jackets with a low revere and which fastens low down on the torso - a single button fastening is best. A longer blazer style is always an ideal choice to provide balance for fullness around the bust.
- Don't go for 'Chanel' style boxy jackets or those which button up high over the chest - they will make you look larger and heavier than you are.
A lower neckline is always best to flatter a fuller bust - a V neck is ideal. It visually narrows the area and if you add a gorgeous necklace to dress your decolletage, it lifts the eye up and adds glamour.You can see from these pictures of the lovely Marilyn Monroe what a difference a higher or lower neckline makes to a fuller busted figure......
And, always invest in good underwear - it will give proper support to a fuller bustline, and ensure your figure has definition.
Looking good is all about making the most of your assets.
