Anyone With Big Boobs Needs to Shop These 10 Perfect Brands
Being blessed with a large bust isn't a problem. In fact, it can be brilliant. That is, however, until you go shopping. As someone with a D-cup (so the smaller end of the full-chested spectrum), trying to find tops, dresses and coats that fit around my upper half can be a bit of a nightmare, especially as I'm also a size 10.
However, it's worth noting that there are many brands out there that cater to people with D-cups and bigger. Plenty of high-street brands now stock plus-size lines, not to mention some specifically bigger-bust lingerie brands that recognise everyone has a different body shape. And if you're not plus-size but still need some extra breathing space in the chest region? There are a few brands that I'd recommend shopping from that give you a flattering shape and enough room so you don't have any bra-flashing situations. Keep scrolling to see (and shop) the best brands for people with large busts.
1. Mango
Mango has a plus-size section? Why, yes—it does. Mango's plus-size range was separate at one point but has now been integrated into its core collections, so particular pieces come in sizes up to a 4XL or UK 26.
2. H&M+
For those on a budget, H&M+ caters to plus sizes, and we suggest opting for the brand's knitwear and dresses—especially if you have a larger chest.
For these colder months, it's important to find a cosy jacket that you can close all the way up.
3. COS
For those who are petite, COS isn't necessarily the best place to go shopping, as some pieces can swamp your size. However, coats from the shop are brilliant for fitting round a bigger bust. Just remember to go for a belted version if you want to define your waist.
This puffer will highlight your silhouette with its drawstring waist. Now to decide between khaki or black…
4. Warehouse
Warehouse introduced Warehouse Curve, which caters to sizes 18 to 24. It covers all your sartorial needs, but we're particularly impressed with its range of flattering dresses that will work for every event (weddings, work, brunch, you name it). The best for a bigger bust is the wrap dresses and more formfitting frocks.
This is ideal for the impending party season.
So good.
I've got my eye on this dress.
5. ASOS
ASOS has really nailed it when it comes to catering to its bigger-bust customers. ASOS Curve offers such a gorgeous and on-trend range of pieces, but the online superstore also has its range of swimwear that caters to D-cups and up all year round, aptly titled ASOS Fuller Bust. Bravo.
6. River Island
Another brand that has set out to do stylish plus-size wear is River Island. Head here for expensive-looking fitted jackets and figure-flattering blouses for a chic silhouette.
Not a dress person? This is a chic alternative for the party season.
7. Topshop Curve
As part of Topshop's new chapter under ASOS, it has (finally) introduced a curve section. Many of us fondly remember the days of shopping at Topshop, and the new addition of curve has us returning to the long-loved brand.
Big Topshop may be gone, but its iconic jeans such as Jamie are here to stay (and now in curve).
8. Never Fully Dressed
Since its inception, Never Fully Dressed has created multi-wear styles to be dressed up or down for all bodies. You'll find an array of unique prints in every colour imaginable alongside plain classic styles.
The subtle shimmer will add an elevated touch to your looks.
9. Karen Millen
Karen Millen has been a go-to on the high street for plus-size pieces for longer than we can remember, and it's no wonder. You'll find plenty of perfect workwear separates here—think tapered trousers, camisoles to layer under tailoring and smart dresses—alongside easy off-duty dresses, excellent knitwear and the accessories are well worth a look too.
Opt for a slightly oversized silhouette to ensure no gaping buttons.
A polished dress that can go from the office to dinner and drinks.
Wrap-style coats are perfect for a fuller bust.
10. Needle & Thread
Needle & Thread has become known for the considered range of sizes and recognises that people come in all shapes and sizes. The brand has built a following from its feminine and whimsical designs. If you're looking for occasionwear, this is a great place to start.
