Can I wear Cos clothes with big boobs?

I've recently lost a lot of weight and I am thoroughly enjoying going into all the shops that were previously unavailable to me. I'm not really spending yet, just trying to get a feel for what suits me, what sizing is like etc. Spent about two hours in Cos today trying on loads of stuff. I think I loved it, but I do have somewhat massive boobs and I'm not sure I'm deluding myself about how the stuff looked on me. I'm also only 5 foot 7, and noticed most women in the store seemed a couple of inches taller, and a different shape. I know I can wear whatever I damn well like, but having been out of mainstream fashion for a very long time, I'm definitely a bit short of confidence and don't want to make expensive mistakes. (Also felt a bit out of place because I went in wearing a Joules floral harbour top, which was probably some hienous crime against Cos fashion but it's one of the few items I have that isn't falling off me, even though it's very loose. But I don't see Joules tops in my future, really)

Inspired by this thread I went into Cos and tried stuff on the first time ever. I love it and think I've finally found my shop.
However I am very straight up and down, not skinny more a size 10-12, closer to 12, very broad shouldered and "athletic" shape, no waist really and not very curvy. Average height at 165cm.
So I guess if the stuff suited me it probably wouldn't suit a lovely curvy defined figure (which I envy). Lots of tunic shaped dresses and boxy shapes.
