    Intro to Bravissimo for America’s Full-Bust Customers

    ByHolly123 August 15, 2019 8:59 am

    I’ve been a huge fan of Bravissimo for ages, but I never thought their stores would make it over the pond to the US. Not only did they launch a US-friendly version of their website with easy returns, but they’ve now opened a flagship store in New York. So it seems the perfect time to…

    Colorful Lingerie & Clothing to Celebrate Christmas

    ByHolly123 November 30, 2017 9:32 am

    As holidays go, Christmas has to be my favorite. I love it all: the music, the sparkly decorations and the excuse to dress up in dramatic or kitschy outfits. I am the crazy lady who puts up her Christmas decorations on Thanksgiving afternoon and starts stashing advent calendars in October. The holidays are an excellent…

    Exclusively Kristen Full Bust Fashions: Boob-Friendly Clothing for DD+ Busts

    Byelisabeth September 26, 2017 8:58 am

    Like many companies, Exclusively Kristen was born out of personal need. Its founder couldn’t find professional looking clothing to fit her larger bust.  Most clothing stores don’t carry “big boob-friendly” clothing.  Often a woman with larger breasts can’t even find a button down shirt that doesn’t gap at the front. And if something fits in the…

    Fall Full Bust Fashion and Bras: My Shopping List

    ByHolly123 September 7, 2017 7:52 am

    One of the secrets of spending your life writing about lingerie and clothing is that lots of the time, you’re just writing about stuff because it’s there. You write about things that you think your readers will want. Or because it’s new and notable, rather than picking things that get your hard-earned cash. So how…

    Southern Summer Dresses: Chambray, Seersucker, Gingham and Eyelet

    ByHolly123 May 30, 2017 8:40 am

    While parts of the country still have cold snaps, we’ve hit full summer here in the South. It’s the sleepiest time of the year, even in a permanently tourist filled city like New Orleans. Temperatures and humidity creep up until it feels like a sauna outside, with the only relief being the near daily rainstorms…

    No More Wardrobe Malfunctions — Best Full Bust Clothing Brands, Part I

    ByHolly123 October 28, 2015 9:30 am

    My last column covered some mainstream curve friendly options. Today I tackle territory less well-known: clothing retailers that offer only full bust clothing. If you’ve never heard of them, that’s because there are only a few based in the US. Full bust clothing options have grown in countries like Poland where full bust bra options…

    Ever felt awkward in a department store changing room as a dress slid over your hips and then got stuck on your chest? Sick of buying belts in every color combination to cinch a too-big dress that only fits your boobs? Tired of a trying on clothes where the waist seam cuts your chest in…
