Though the average bra size in the UK is reportedly 34DD it so often seems the cutest bras are made for the tiny titted community. I’m here to say it’s not true. It’s just a matter of hunting down the labels that cater to the C and above crowd. We’ll stand for nothing less than attractive AND supportive. Yes, M&S will sell you a wired cup that will keep everything in place, but it’s unlikely to be sexy as well. In fact, more likely than not, the high street’s bigger boobed offering will be littered with substantial straps and cups so colossal they will swallow your whole chest up. To make getting dressed easier, we’ve searched the web to find four brands that are cute AF, will hold you in place and make the most of your proportions. Thank us later.
1. The Halterneck Addition
The beautiful and smart Naomi Shimada is a fan of Lonely Lingerie. The brand describes themselves as ‘For women who wear lingerie as a love letter to themselves.’ It’s certainly one love letter we’d sign our names to.
2. Emily Ratajakowski Approved
Model-activist-stone cold fox Emily Ratajkowski once told Allure ‘It really bothers me that people are so offended by breasts…That's when I realised how fucked our culture is,’ adding, ‘When we see breasts, we don't think of beauty and femininity. We think of vulgar, over-sexualized images.’ And, she’s dead right. Treat your boobs right by following her lead and shopping at Gooseberry Intimates for lacy lingerie that matches form with functionality.
3. Deep Blue Yonder
Described as ‘sleek, simple and modern’, head to Beija London for fancy unpadded support up to a size G. The brand comes from a family of fabric millers, so you know their quality is good. Personally, I’m a fan of their ‘Can’t Explain’ balcony bra in black, but it’s their ‘Caught Up’ style in powder blue fishnet that has Instagram all in a flurry.
4. Riding High
The fit on Curvy Kate’s strapless bra is incredible. No exaggeration. And, their smooth cups mean you won’t get that dreaded shadow lines when you wear a t-shirt. Add to basket.
