Can anyone dress me please? Stupid shape alert...
Can anyone dress me please? Stupid shape alert...
OK so I've put a bit of weight on.
I went clothes shopping yesterday and lost the will to live.
My bosom is about a size 20. Underneath my bust to my waist is about a 16 and my hips are a 12.
How stupid is that?
Anything I buy now pulls across my bust, so I get a 20-22 to compensate which means it is baggy round my waist.
Pants that fasten on the waist hang round my bum and legs.
:rant: :rant::rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:
Anyone know any good mail order sites? For real women with real bodies? I had a look at Simply Be but it was a Simply B.Awful site.
Oh, and to cap it all, most of the tops in the shops are those ones that are shaped round the bust or have detail just under the bust. Except my bust fits UNDERNEATH all this lovely detail and shaping, thanks very much.
:mad:
BTW, I'm 45 this year so can't be dressed as lamb for I am now well and truly mutton.

Answers:
Wrap tops and dresses work really well with big boobs, you can pull it tighter on the waist and the cross effect on the bust makes it appear smaller.

Try www.bravissimo.co.uk they might have some tops, last time I looked they came in small sizes but for bigger boobs!
Answers:
I guess with your shape skirts would be more flattering than trousers (which isnt too bad now its summer!) as you could buy to fit on the hips and as long as it was a fairly loose style it should fit ok on your hips and legs.
I agree with Caramel that wrap dresses and tops are another good option and there seems to be quite a few of them in the shops at the moment :)
Is getting items taken in an option for you? Or perhaps trying it with a simple top at home to fit them at the waist?
