Jacket to wear with midi skirt- big boobs

10 replies

SRK16 · 04/02/2020 14:26

I really want to be able to pull of the winter/spring midi skirt & boots look. Finally have the skit and boots, but can’t find a jacket. I know biker jackets look good but they make my big boobs look even more ridiculous. I’m currently an H cup and I need something that doesn’t make them look any bigger/bulk me up. I’m an hourglass, size 14 (if I can squeeze my comedy boobs into a 14, otherwise a 16 on top). 5’5... generally find short jackets hard with my boobs. Any ideas? Maybe needs to be more cropped to accentuate the waist? It doesn’t have to do up if I can wear a scarf with it...
Appreciate any thoughts!

What about a biker hut not leather? Like this Asos one ?

But... not a biker hut... 😳

Hmm maybe but I’m not sure. I think the style may generally not suit? Thanks for the thought. This one looks nice and I think should go in terms of colour www.asos.com/prd/13894785?acquisitionsource=pasteboard

But is there anything that would work that isn’t biker style?

Like that one. It is difficult! I have a nice soft stretch denim one from Zara that flatters my giant boobs, but it’s more summery I suppose.

Can you do a crop bomber style thing? I struggle cos I don’t suit the neck but sometimes like them on others.

What kind of midi you talking?

I just saw this but think it’s too long for the look I want?

This is the skirt I want it for - I think for my figure I have to wear it with a top tucked in (otherwise it looks like I have no waist and am just tits) www.hush-uk.com/sale-1/sale-2/sale-skirts-1/evie-midi-skirt-confetti-green.htm

Not sure about a bomber. Maybe what I want doesn’t exist, or maybe I just don’t have the figure for the look I want 😕
On the skirt link I like how they styled it with a biker jacket but perhaps I just can’t pull it off.

That’s nice! I always dismiss bravissimo clothes, but clearly shouldn’t. But yes, but long.. I do think the suedette is somehow better for bigger boobs.

I do also have a smooth leather crop jacket with a central zip and not too much going on which I love, though am sadly a bit fat for it just now. It’s from Reiss and is really soft so doesn’t add bulk

I also dismiss bravissimo clothes I think they seem a bit frumpy? Or just don’t suit me... the skirts are a terrible length on me anyway.

Your Reiss jacket sounds like what I need. Central zip, no flaps... assume it’s old stock?!

Maybe I’ll try the suedette asos one.

Definitely bit frumpy in general.

Try a suedette one.. if no good you can return and if it is that’s a whole new world!
