Boob minimising bras

[jenny82]

Can anyone recommend where I could get one that is comfy?

I have a wedding next weekend. I got a dress from Ted Baker today which is ok (best of a bad bunch, my PP body isn't quite up to scratch yet). I do feel that it is a bit tight across my chest, but it could've been the bra I was wearing. Or would a chest to legs support thing be better? I have spanx but feel like my back fat sticks out a bit at the top

Thanks x

I've had minimiser bras from m&s before which are really comfy, they reduce your bust by a cup size x

Ooh great! Tbh I wasn't actually sure they exist so now I know! I will head there this week to take a look. I hate my boobs atm, much prefer them smaller

M&S! I got one from Next but it's really high up in the middle so shows under a lot of tops, and it's kind of painful too.

I've personally not had much luck with minimising bras, I think it depends how big you are, I tried for years to find a nice one. I am a big chested girl I have been between E-G since I was early 20s (depends where I am on the baby journey!) I used to be embarassed of them, especially as I am actually slim so they stand out, I just wanted to make them less noticeable. But I found they made me look like an 80 year old woman, they push them down and to the sides (well the ones I tried) which was a really unflattering shape.

Ironically the best bras for me I have found, the ones I avoided for years, are padded full cup bras, yes they push them up and out but I look youthful and slim! But that's probably not helpful to your dress dilemma, I would just say becareful because depending on the style of the dress it might not give you a flattering shape.

Good point actually. I will bring the dress with me and try it on in the changing room. I've always been a B. ATM I'm a C/D and it's really getting me down, but I know they will be back to normal eventually. Most of the time it doesn't bother me too much, just these horrid social events!
