Its summertime, the season of tank tops and sundresses, and since a couple of weeks ago we blogged about avoiding cleavage, I thought it only fair to give equal time to the plight of trying to acquire it. On certain special occasions you may *want* to have cleavage. Or a certain dress may be required - think bridesmaid - and you need a low-cut bra to keep your breasts in the dress as prettily as possible. A plunge bra is what's required, and most plunge bras for special occassions are padded, to increase the cleavage affect.
Women with a full bust can still be challenged in the cleavage department because of the shape of their ribcage. If the thoracic shape is comparatively broad, the breasts will be further apart, whereas if the body depth is comparatively deep (yours truly) the breasts will be relatively close together. This has nothing to do with the back band size, even a 30F could have breasts that are relatively far apart. I have a great graphic on this issue, I'll work on posting it.
While at Dallas Market last week showing the Bratique Helene line (hence the lapse in blog entries, sorry) I visited my friends in the lingerie showrooms. For me, being around a bunch of lingerie is like being in a candy store. Its so very fun & yummy. Eveden (manufacturer of Fantasie, Fryea, Goddess & Elomi) is excited about this new bra - Savannah. Based on their best selling style Bridgette, Savannah comes in a padded plunge style WITH side seaming. The side seaming works to bring the breasts together, so if you have breasts that are wide set due to a broad thoracic cavity and want some cleavage, this is the bra for you.
Please contact Bratique Helene if you need any help finding bras, swim & clothes for your full bust-line. Being well-endowed is a blessing and not a curse.
