Matron boobs

[superplumb]

Hate my boobs. I'm 34 e dometimes f they make me look so fat. Nothing looks nice. I wear v neck and tried a minimise bra but I still look awful
Any ideas on what I can do to make improvements. Thanks

Are you sure about the size? If they're not supported properly, it can look awful. Try the boob or bust method, it's online or Facebook I think.

Yes, do check your size. The right bra will work wonders for your shape and your confidence.

Go to bravissimo. They sorted me out and I'm an ff

Yeah it fits really well. Not saggy just big.

Be grateful they're not saggy like mine!

Totally feel you. I'm the same. But mine have also succumbed to gravity too after dc2? 😭 34J. My ribcage is small. My boobs are soo heavy and out of proportion.

I'd love a reduction but seems unlikely to happen with finances as they are.

No advice but total empathy from me!

Feel your pain OP. I’m a size 14 and my boobs are a 36GG and they make me look 2 sizes bigger than I am. They restrict what I can wear, they are uncomfortable and like you say make me look matronly. I hate them at the moment.

I hate mine too, everything looks either matronly or tarty. No advise OP but I do sympathise.

32G and feel your pain. I am fed up with underwired bras too, I find them so uncomfortable by end of the day- but I think they probably do keep a better shape than non wired ones I've got. But non wired bras are soooo much more comfortable! I've seen myself in a reflection and thought I look a bit Charlie Dimmock though, eg braless, which isn't a good look at this size.

M&S minimiser bra. It'a an ugly contraption but it works.

Totally with you. Crap isn’t it? Stupid enorma boobs.

I think you're supposed to tuck or half tuck tops in (google french tuck) because anything loose fitting hangs off your boobs and makes you look bigger .
And wear stuff with a waist .

as a G cup with a narrow back, I’d say it all depends upon the rest of your figure. As I’m a tall size 14 with broad hips, I just look fat.if you are slim a large bust can really distort a figure- if you have slim arms and legs, I’d make the most of those. A friend is very very out of proportion - I can’t remember her bust size but it’s something like an L and she’s a size 6. She wears skinny or slim trousers and shoes off her slim arms amd tends to wear a v neck but not a deep one. She looks great.

Always try and emphasise your waist by tucking in tops (french tuck or fully) or a belt. Not all well fitting bras are equal, some make the boobs look more matronly than others.

But mostly just try to come to terms with the fact clothes are not easy when you are bigger boobed and don't even try to wear unflattering items even though they are lovely. I am 32GG sadly.

I'm a 34E. I'm only 5ft and look like Hattie Jacques. I was a flat chested teenager then 32B for years then middle age kicked in. Luckily they aren't saggy. Be careful what you wish for.

A few things - no low cut tops, crew necks or polo necks. I tend to wear boat neck tops.

Always have tops with waist defined, even if you go to get them altered.

I have Triumph minimiser bras - not sexy but it works.

Also I've been doing weights at the gym and that has made my back, arms and chest more toned, which helps

A quick question about large boobs and cross-body bags. Where does the strap go?

I had shorts and a vest top on today (30G) and looked like booby mcboobface. Put a little short sleeved bolero type cardi on top and suddenly the outfit looked good. It's all about balancing things out .

Another vote for Bravissimo. I'm bigger than you. Their fitting service is excellent. Its not measured as they judge by eye. I avoid v necks as they just make me look worse. I empathise with the matron boots! Once you get the right bra with the right lift it makes such a difference as to how your clothes look. I'm also avoiding the puffy sleeved dresses to avoid the matron look.

SevernEleven I place it in between otherwise it just keeps slipping down anyway. Spose it depends on how much cleavage you have which varies according to Bravissimo. * *I found out that out only recently and is why some bras are better depending on your cleavage. Its quite a science really! And no I don't work for them BTW! I was just so relieved to find some decent bras. Marks n Spencers have never worked for me. I always used to shop in Debenhams.

I wear cross body bags criss body but the strap emphasises my boobs!🙈

Triumph Minimiser are great but only start on a 34, I am 32H and one boob is slightly bigger than the other to a point where I can only wear 1 brand and style of bra. I almost made a fitter at Bravissimo give up but eventually she found the only thing that works for me (Panache Elan unloaded).

unpadded! Unfortunately it's pretty loaded with boobs!!

Another vote for Triumph minimisers. I'm a 36F and they make me look like Erin O'Connor.

When I was slim I had 34DD boobs and my boobs were a perfect size. Certainly not matronly so I'm sure yours are not as bad as you think.

Try being a 38E. I look like Hattie Jacques.
