How To Find Flattering Plus Size Bras
Wearing the right bra gives all of us an extra boost and the good news is that it’s easier than you think to find plus size bras to make you feel fabulous.
As we’ve seen a variety of styles of plus size bras available in the shops this winter from t-shirt bras to underwired bras and padded bras, there’s no excuse for wearing old, ill-fitting underwear. Whether you want a comfortable and supportive bra for the day or a little something to boost your bust for night, it’s all out there if you look through the plus size bras section of your local store or online.
Here’s how to start:

Two thirds of women are wearing the wrong size bra – don’t be one of them!

The same applies to light coloured clothing so go for a white, cream or pastel coloured bra if wearing pale tops or dresses. If you’re wearing a t-shirt then you may want to consider a t-shirt bra which is seam free so it won’t get spotted under your outfit.
(3) Think about the occasion
For day, a good underwired plus size bra should give you enough support as long as you’re wearing the correct size. An underwired bra will lift your bust so that everything fits you better – from t-shirts and blouses to jumpers and cardigans. However, if you’re planning a night out then you may want to think about a padded bra. The newest styles are subtle, providing a hint of padding but also supporting what you have that nobody would guess you were
