The thing that works best for me is to, when possible, wear a jacket - it can be stretchy &amp; slightly unstructured but as long as it fits well at the shoulder-line I feel the bust thing is less of an issue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/any-tips-for-a-high-waist-very-large-34k-bust#post-846150 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 21:44:34 +0000 4babiesMe 846150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies. Day Vies, I am definitely going to look through your posts and get some inspiration from you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/any-tips-for-a-high-waist-very-large-34k-bust#post-845855 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 16:50:47 +0000 Carole 845855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm very high waisted, broad shouldered and larger in the bust and find I am happiest with accents below the waist, so no tucking, hip slung belts work great, and slimmer bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/any-tips-for-a-high-waist-very-large-34k-bust#post-845820 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 16:15:31 +0000 Day Vies 845820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same problem and I am the EXACT same size. I say avoid empire styles like the plague. There is never enough room.</p> <p>I recommend a structured printed tunic. It works because if you want a flowy casual ethnic feeling but loosey-goosey-drapey-no-shapey doesn't love your body back this solution will work wonders. There is something about the crisp seaming at the shoulders that sets the tone for the entire outfit and works to de-emphasize your bust line. Also the print works as camouflage to take the emphasis off your chest. Finally, because tunics are designed to be untucked it will look neat untucked without adding extra volume and the garment will elongate your torso. </p> <p>You also might want to check to see if petite sizes fit you better. If your waist is as high as mine your arms and torso are probably shorter too. The tip off is generally that sleeveless shirts have arm holes that are show off your lovely bras because they are cut too deep and v-necks expose too much cleavage. I wear a 16P OR a PXL. Having jackets and button-down shirts fit well provide structure so that you can show the world yes, that I DO have a waist. </p> <p>(Yes, I have button-down shirts and jackets that fit me well when buttoned up).</p> <p>One last thing, you have probably already considered wearing jeans and trousers that have a lower rise so that you get more room between your bust line and the top of your pants. Also if/when you tuck -- it will look best when you are wearing a jacket and even better if you are wearing a top and bottom with similar colors and the jacket provides the high contrast. </p> <p>I hope this helps you. This issue has been the bane of my existence -- so I get it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/any-tips-for-a-high-waist-very-large-34k-bust#post-845767 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 15:23:23 +0000 Anonymous 845767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Take a look at some of Thistle's posts -- she's a high waisted hourglass with a larger bust too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/any-tips-for-a-high-waist-very-large-34k-bust#post-845735 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 14:55:49 +0000 4babiesMe 845735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel like my waist is too high &amp; chest too big to do a belt or empire waist. Since my chest seems to take up so much of my torso it looks wrong to me and emphasizes my breasts. But I look terrible in the more flowy tops with no defined waist. Please help! </p>
