When it comes to dresses

[sandy7827]

It goes without saying that wearing the correct underwear for your size is vital and will show off your clothing to its best advantage. If going for a plunging neck-line (and why not?) make sure your bra enhances your cleavage and removes any sign of sag or spreading that large breasts can suffer from. You can also go for strapless tops, as long as your shoulders are not too broad and chunky. There's a great selection of strapless bras in larger sizes now available to help complement this kind of outfit.
There are many simple ways to balance an unbalanced body shape. One such trick is to draw the eye to the lower half with the use of color and shape.
Skirts are best in A line or full, with a bold color or pattern, which hang from the waist rather than the hip. Conversely club dresses, hipster, flared or boot-cup jeans are flattering ######y corset, as are cargo and light colored trousers and jeans. If you have great legs though and want to show them off go for leggings and skinny jeans but play down your top half with dull colors and avoid fancy tops. A semi-fitted tunic type top looks great over jeans or leggings and is a good compromise to show off top and bottom to the best advantage.
When it comes to dresses, go for bias cut or flared bottom, which are fitted at the top. A large, overall baggy or flowing dress will simply create a tent effect as the dress hangs from the large bust area. On the other hand, dresses that are too fitted can accentuate bust size.
If you're reading this article, the chances are you're on the top heavy side, which I believe is known in the fashion world as a 'strawberry'.
Wide-legged trousers should definitely be worn in favour of slim-fit or tapered, which accentuate the problem. Flowing instead of tapered or fitted skirts are also a good choice. Whatever you do, steer clear of bright, flouncy tops with shoulder pads or big lapels, which won't do you any favors.
Don't be put off because there is a style to suit every body-shape. It's just a case of following some simple rules and learning which patterns and colors complement you.
V or scoop necked tops are a must for the large breasted, as a high or slash necks can create what looks like a large block of material bridal corset, which is unbroken and draws the eye. Fitted, high necked or polo tops are a definite no no and can make your bust look like one large mound. The visibility of some skin and cleavage is not a bad idea and breaks up the chest area. Also avoid chunky knit tops and cardigans but cardigans in thinner fabrics can be helpful and distract the eye, especially if worn in a bold color and unfastened.
Coats and jackets that taper in at the waist and flare at the bottom are ideal but steer clear of big shoulder pads, lapels and coats that flare from the breast area. Long-line rather than cropped will also flatter a larger top half.
