  • Must fit F/G bust
- must be smart (but not necessarily black)
  • must be able to breast feed in it (so no dresses)
  • not too expensive as doubt will wear more than once

DD2 in only 2 weeks old and I have an important interview in 3 weeks. Stressful in itself - and I have nothing to wear! Truly. I am 5ft 3, currently a size 12 (with a bit of post baby belly) and enormous breastfeeding boobs. Cannot find anything to fit and don't have tots of time to shop. Have looked at Bravissimo and will try a couple of their shirts but need a suit (trs or skirt) with a jacket that will fit my ample bust without drowning me.
Please, please help!

Get thee to a debenhams and buy the jacket that goes with this skirt. I can't find it to link as it's sold out online, but there were some in store the other day. The woman on the 'we buy any car' advert is wearing it. Anyway, I have it and it fits beautifully over my 36Gs.

This one -sorry about the link, but it's the only place I can find it

This also nice

Look for styles that have only one button on the jacket. They are a lot more accommodating for a big bust than ones with two or more buttons.

This too

Liking the 'we buy nay car' jacket and skirt - will try debenhams tomorrow and hope not sold out (Is now in the sale). Has the advantage could wear black trs/skirt with it and it still look 'matching'/coordinated.
Not sure about the M and S one - but might look better in the flesh. Would you advise simple vest style top under, rather than shirt? (I note youtube style!). Am new to the larger bust fashion - have always been a B cup!
Advice gratefully received. Thank you.

I wore mine with a plain black scoop neck t shirt underneath- a plain vest would work too; anything else looks too busy and breaks up the line of the jacket, which is really lovely on (looks better than the ad )

I think you'll definitely find something in Debenhams- let us know how you get on
