Help finding clothes for a large of busted teen

DD is 15 and a size 10/12 but has inherited my rather large bust she is currently a 30GG or H depending on the style. To add to the issue she has also inherited her fathers long body! This makes clothes buying tricky. We can manage shirts and jeans but she wants some nice clothes like her friends have but miss selfridges hollister etc just don’t fit.

Does anyone have any suggestions of where we can try? The bravissimo clothing range is not really teen friendly.

She likes skater dresses and would love to wear strapless tops and dresses but finds strapless bras uncomfortable.

Simply Be has a lot of stuff I deemed too trendy for me (I’m 35) so that might be worth a look? They have skater dresses and some bras for big boobs that can be made strapless.
I can sympathise, I was 34E by 15 and it’s only got worse having babies!

Try Dangerfirld online. Their clothes usually acconate a bigger bust and are very teenagerish.

Thanks so would there 12 be like a normal 12 but cut for curves? She’s got quiet a small waist. One of her complaints is she ends up with baggy stuff round her middle to be able to fit her chest in.

I’ve been big since 14 too was a 34E like you pre children. Very excited at mo as have been losing weight and am now down to a 32G from a 34H!

@Katz ooh well done! I’m away up to a 38GG Sad

Thanks! Taken up running which I never thought possible with huge boobs but found an amazing sports bra which means I can actually run. But it’s expensive on my 3rd bra!

@ttbb is that this site? shop.dangerfield.com.au/womens/clothing/princess-highway/dresses.html

Will show her these later. Thanks

@Katz that’s brilliant, well done! if I tried to run I’d probably fall over and look like a twat

Skater dresses are usually fine as theyre stretchy. Maybe look out for topshop-tall range, or tall range in other shops.

She will probably have to forget about the strapless thing

Katz · 18/11/2017 12:36

Branleuse sadly think you’re right about the strapless although I have one good one which means I can wear strapless but only for an evening can’t wear it all day as it digs in too much.
