The main problems of large breasts. How to choose the right bra?
Every day, owners of large breasts contact us with complaints that they cannot find the right bra and have to wear what they have. "That's all! I cannot take it anymore. I came to you specifically. Please, pick the right bra for me," is the most frequent phrase in the fitting room.
We know firsthand the main problems of large breasts:
  • Problem №1 - back pain
    Spinal problems often accompany women with large breasts. Of course, they may not appear immediately. Any breast pulls its owner forward and down. The larger the chest, the more tense are the muscles of the back, which provide balance. This leads to a change in gait, curvature of the spine, increased risks of osteochondrosis, heart and lung diseases.
  • Problem №2 - law of gravity
    With age, the chest sags. Asymmetry of the breast, loss of its shape may appear, especially after childbirth or severe weight loss. In the case of a large bust, this manifests itself faster than usual due to its heaviness. By the way, for the same reason, natural breasts of an ideal round shape are rare - gravity does not allow.
  • Problem №3 – oncology
    Women with large breasts have a higher risk of breast cancer than women with small or medium sizes, due to the effect of estrogen on both breast size and tumor development.
  • Problem №4 - selection of clothes and underwear
    With a large bust, it is difficult to choose such a type of clothing as shirts and jackets. Trying on dresses and outerwear turns into a sad adventure. And the right and comfortable bra is generally a pipe dream. As a result, visually the figure looks full and shapeless.
  • Problem №5 – discomfort while sleeping
    You can forget about sleeping on your stomach. It remains only to dream of a bed with two holes for "them" ...
  • Problem №6 – sport
    Jumping, running, fitness, dancing and other activities are a problem for busty women.
Reduction surgery is a radical way that women with large breasts are now offered, but this is not always the best way out. Women planning to become pregnant and breastfeeding are prohibited from such operations. After such an intervention, due to the risk of complications, you can lose your breast altogether, or the breast grows again.
The selection of the right bra begins with measuring two parameters with a centimeter tape: volumes under the chest and along the protruding points of the chest.
What to pay attention on when choosing the perfect bra?


Belt


The belt takes on the main weight of the chest. The size of the belt should be less than the volume under the breast by about 10 cm (may vary depending on the individual characteristics of a particular woman: back, chest, breast weight). The waistband is connected to a high armhole that flattens the silhouette by eliminating unnecessary pleats at the sides.

Important: the belt should be tight and take the main weight and support of the chest.

Cups

The cups should completely fit the chest. A sophisticated cut with a side support detail and a high neckline provides a beautiful shape and secure bust fixation. If the model is underwire, pay attention that the bone completely wraps around the chest and does not rest against the soft tissues of the armpit. The bones between the chest should also fit snugly to the body.

Tip:
when trying on a bra, lean forward and move around - the chest should remain in place. If she tries to slip out of the bra, it's not the shape of the breast that is to blame, but the insufficiently deep cup and the low neckline.

Straps

Bra straps for large breasts are slightly wider than usual. As a rule, the larger the size, the wider the straps. Straps take on 10% of breast support. Soft padding on the shoulder unloads the back and aligns the posture.

Important: wide straps for large breasts are additional support. The wider the area of contact with the body, the less pressure (remember the lessons of physics!)

Back

The back of a bra for large breasts should not be thin. It is part of the belt; it has a colossal responsibility for supporting the bust. Larger size - wider back. Three rows of hooks and three levels of volume adjustment under the bust allow you to achieve the perfect fit.

Tip: when trying on, fasten the hooks to the loosest level. Over time, the band and back of the bra will stretch a little, and you can re-fasten the hooks to a tighter level for a perfect fit.

Important: pay attention that when trying on the back is parallel to the floor. Raise your hands. If it rides up - the belt is big.
