Girls with naturally big boobs come in many shapes and sizes, not all of you are plus sized! Some of you ladies will have the perfect hour glass shape, others will be a bit more curvy, others will be skinny with big boobs! What we all have in common is the nightmare of finding a bra that fits, dresses that don't look like maternity smocks, strapless that can support the weight of your boobs and dresses that hide your bra straps oh and let us not forget keeping a level of decorum and not showing a mile of cleavage!
So here are some tips on trying on a wedding dress 
- Make sure you buy a bra that fits perfectly. Do Not go shopping for your wedding dress in an old, saggy sports bra.
- Go shopping on a day when you feel great. If you're having a bad hair day or PMSin', you're setting yourself up for a rough time. Make an effort get your hair done in the morning, wear pretty knickers etc.
- Take one or two trusted friends with you. They won't be afraid to tell you their opinion and point out which wedding dress flatters a big bust.
- Call the Bridal boutique before you go and let them know you're coming. Some shops require an appointment. This might seem like a hassle, but it will insure that you have an attentive, supportive sale person totally focused on you.
- Be honest with the designer or sales person. She will have a very good idea about what will work for you. However don't let her push you into something that's not what you want. If you're just not 'clickin' with her personally, go somewhere else.
- Because of your larger bust, you may have to go up 3 or 4 sizes. Do not let this send you into a hopeless depression! It's totally normal. It's just a number, forget about it. They will adjust the dress to fit your slim frame!
- Try on lots of different dresses. You might be surprised what style you like and what styles work for you. When you find the perfect dress you'll know, but make your dress prove itself by trying on several dresses even after you have the one.
- If you are going strapless make sure they bone your dress so it gives you enough support but does not make you look like your boobs are resting on a shelf. Trust me I was a bridesmaid at my sisters wedding in Thailand ,my dress with built in scaffolding made my boobs look as if they were sat on the perfect shelf! I cringe still when I see the photos, whereas my sister who has also been gifted with big boobs looked amazing with a stunning strapless dress and a delicate wrap lace over coat...
Unfortunately I do not have a photo of my sisters dress which was so simply stunning!
Shapes that flatter big boobs!
- Strapless, Sweetheart, V-neck, or Scoop Neck are Flattering. Avoid high neck lines and I personally think avoid halter neck lines. Get your dress maker to bone your dress so you are fully supported or buy a great bra. Try Bravissimo (they ship worldwide!)
- A-line dresses tend to be more flattering, stay away from empire line as they might not be so flattering!
- Corset style dresses work really well at pulling you in and creating a flattering stiletto.
- If you like a dress with lots of detail, try and keep the details on the lower half of the gown so it draws the eye away from your bust line.
- Remember when trying on wedding dresses to bend over and look in the mirror, you will be bending over to sign the registry and your photographer will be taking photos along with all your guests.
- I have big boobs but I also have the skinny legs, so I keep looking at short wedding dresses thinking how a stunning pair of shoes would bring the eye away from my bust! Make the most of your other assists!
