Wearing revealing clothes with small boobs

There's so many bodysuits and dresses that have quite a revealing chest area but I've avoided them due to the fact I've got no boobs 😢 should I be avoiding them? Is it embarrasing to try and pull off such things with no boobs?

BennyTheBall · 02/03/2016 22:18

Katarzyna79, said nothing nasty, rude or judgemental.

Bunbaker · 02/03/2016 22:22

I can't see anything nasty or judgemental in Katar's post.

outputgap · 02/03/2016 22:23

Op, you look great.

I think straight down cut tops, like you've shown, suit flatter chests. I would avoid v shapes though.

Katarzyna79 · 02/03/2016 22:24

thankyou benny maybe i offended ladies with larger boobs. if i did i swear it was never my intent, in trying to get op to see the positives of her small chest size i managed to upset others.

'Pubescent teen look' 'sure a lot comes from not eating'

In my book saying a certain physiche isn't that of an adult woman is pretty nasty. And sharing your thoughts on the eating habits necessary for it is pretty judgemental.

If that's not obvious then how about this example about larger women ' oh well they all have the heavily pregnant with quads look' 'sure a lot of it comes from eating too much'.

Not that I think that about larger women, just illustrating rude personal comments on people's physiche is nasty whatever their size. We're all different.

You are absolutely not a 34! I'd say you need a Bra intervention. My money's on 32DD.

MamaLazarou · 03/03/2016 09:32

OP, you've a beautiful figure and look amazing in that photo. Wear whatever makes you feel good.

LondonStill83 · 03/03/2016 09:47

Op, you look to me about a C cup. You need to get properly measured.

With a skirt like that, remove your pants as they are giving you lines and otherwise you look fab!!

That look begs for an awesome necklace and heels!

Enjoy that figure!

Thank you all,
Like I said I've never been the type to put my chest on display its the one thing that I've always wanted to be able to do - sex sells afterall
I know you can see my pant line Blush I was just quickly trying the dress on to show you all. I'm definitely not a D Blush much as I would love it! I've tried B bras and they are far too big so surely bigger cup sizes will be the same? Confused

It might be that you are wearing too big a back size. Maybe try going down a back size and up a cup size or two. They sometimes do back size based on dress size in some shops. I'm a size 14 on top (16 on bottom but probably not relevant) and I wear a 34" back. If I wore a D cup I'd probably need a 38" or thereabouts - the bra would 'fit', as in it wouldn't gape, but my boobs would look dreadful. I used to wear a 38d or dd and then went for a fitting in HoF and they told me I'd been wearing the wrong size for ages.

Get measured somewhere other than m&s. I really think you'll find you're a bigger cup size and a smaller back.

LadyPriggsbottom · 03/03/2016 11:46

I'm a 34f sorry - wasn't clear.

I've just tried an online calculator I know they aren't 100% but that said 38a Blush they only place I have that does bra measuring is m&s but I've been too embarrased to go, I hate taking my bra off

The volume in a 30D cup is a LOT less than, say a 36D cup. We need to sound an intervention Klaxon! :o

Measure yourself under your boobs, around your back. And then measure yourself around at your fullest point. Then come back and report here and we'll sort you out!

For reference, I thought I was a 34B. I was actually a 30E/F!

Owllady · 03/03/2016 11:52

Katars posts were fine Confused

x0x0x · 03/03/2016 11:52

Step away from the online calculator and DEFINITELY step away from M&S, they're the worst for adding inches to the band size!

Branleuse · 03/03/2016 11:55

OP do you have a tape measure? Whats your under-bust measurement?

littlehooty · 03/03/2016 12:00

Right according to my measurements under bust is 34.6457 and the measurement for what should be my cup size is 32.677 but then the calculator said that the cup measurment shouldn't be smaller than my first measurement Confused

OP posts:
x0x0x · 03/03/2016 12:03

That would give you a concave bosom and we can see you don't have one of those :o. Is the tape straight all the way around?

Branleuse · 03/03/2016 12:14

thats some precise tape measure!

littlehooty · 03/03/2016 12:21

Haha Blush yeah my tape measure does it in ft so calculated it into cm then inches

OP posts:
MrsLettuce · 03/03/2016 12:25

There is a description of how to measure and calculate your size here. It certainly isn't an A cup!

StatisticallyChallenged · 03/03/2016 12:36

Think somethings gone awry with the conversion cos your boobs aren't inverted Grin
