Best tops for huge boobs?

Best top style or links for huge boobs?! (Breastfeeding)

my boobs are huge from breastfeeding and normally I’m athletic with small boobs. So finding it really hard to know what style to buy! I’ve been hiding in hoodies in winter but now I’ve read they can give you a tent impression which I see, plus it should be getting warmer soon so may need to take my jumper off

Currently have T shirts - they’re ok as hide my cleavage but also read they can make you look top heavy

vests / halter necks? I read these can be flattering but I feel like I’ll just be showing off huge
cleaveage!

the rest of my body is still a bit curvy from post partum and breastfeeding.

Dont worry about feeding access atm

I wore button up shirts over a v neck camisole. Slightly loose fit. That way can leave open or button up to look "smarter".

V necks are your friend. I got bigger during breastfeeding and did stay bigger alas

I think v necks tees are good as long as not plunging ! They beak up the vast expanse of the breast and draw the eye down toward the waist. Same effect for large feet.

I find this post a bit odd as not really sure what your goal is. If you want to hide your chest then wear baggy clothes. Just a baggy t shirt will do for summer surely? Anything flattering to your shape will show them off, even if it’s covered. I can’t think of anything flattering that will make big boobs look small.

i wear fitted tops, t shirts and vests in the summer but I have no issue showing cleavage or boob size. Preference for v necks as they are most flattering but they are hard to find nowadays. Halter necks are painful to wear all day and strapless impractical.

If you’re used to having small boobs and being athletic then it sounds like the issue is more in your head and others won’t notice your boobs the way you think they will.

Scoop necks or boat necks work as well, and a cardigan or shirt partly buttoned up can also give a bit of camouflage.

V necks (currently hard to find but there are some out there) and scoop necks are usually the best. They’ll show some cleavage but stop you looking matronly. Empire line tops can also look good, are flowy rather than clingy and the right length can also hide your tummy if it’s an area that bothers you. Wrap style tops and dresses are also flattering and you can wear a vest underneath for a bit more modesty if you feel it necessary.

Agree with a previous poster. You can’t go from small boobs and being athletic to huge boobs. It’s impossible.

What do you consider huge boobs to be realistically?

I also have large breasts and am overweight, which it doesn’t sound like you are so this might not apply as much to you. I find that tops with too high a neck make me look matronly. I like v necks but to be honest my favourite style is a low ish scoop neck with some ruching and fairly loose fitting, put maybe a bit nipped in at the waist.
A bit like this?

It is possible, I went from 34b to 34e

Mine went from a 34b to 34e too, and have never gone back 12 years later.

Re those saying it’s not possible - of course it’s possible 😂 I’m EBFing my second baby and everything I’ve read says it’s more likely your boobs will be larger if on EBF baby 2 as your milk glands (or whatever they’re called) will remember. Anyway I can confirm they’re huge.

After reading the thread I think I’ll try v necks and see how I get on, thanks for everyone’s help 😀
