In normal instances looking for the perfect dress can feel like a never-ending task. But if you add other obstacles, it becomes even more complicated! Here we’re going to go through the best, most flattering styled dresses that pair perfectly with a fuller bust. No more awkward fittings and misshaped materials, here we’ll share exactly what dresses we have our eyes on and can guarantee will not only look good but will do wonders at boosting your confidence.
Flattering Styled Dresses for Your Fuller Bust
Like most rule books, not all are the same and what some will suggest – others will go against. Now, we’re going to share with you 5 of the golden rules we suggest you follow to ensure that your fuller bust doesn’t feel like a hindrance when pairing it with your chosen dress.
Opt for V-necks over High Necks
Any type of clothing that carries a V-neck is always more flattering when there is a fuller bust as it works and breaks the pattern. Where a full high neck top, for example, may suit some body shapes it can have a negative look on a fuller-shaped person, as it remains a solid shape. Opting for a V-neck style breaks the material into different shapes and instead causes the eyes to follow the V shape, creating a curve and automatically appearing more flattering.
Wrap dresses can be your bestie
Wrap dresses come with countless benefits, one of them being that they work amazingly for those with a fuller bust. With the advantage of a belt, you can wear your dress as loose or as tight as you would like, so you can more/less define the narrowest part of your frame. Furthermore, other benefits include wrap dresses being a style that is perfect for any age, you can wear it all year round and, what's more, wrap dresses never goes out of style.
A-line Dresses Create the Right Kind of Volume
Wearing an A-line dress can work amazingly with fuller busted gals, as they ensure the top part of the body is neat, before cinching in the waist and flowing outwards. Voluminous skirts to dresses can aid in balancing the silhouette and have less focus on looking top-heavy.
With unlimited patterns, styles and materials available you’re able to find the dress that you can feel confident, sexy and comfortable in.
The Misconception of Dressing with a Fuller Bust
With a fuller bust you can feel you fall into two categories: do you show cleavage or do you cover it? One of the main misconceptions of dressing with a fuller bust is that you have to show cleavage for it to be flattering. This is wrong. In fact, there are many ways in which you can correctly style your clothing to look flattering and comfortable without having to show skin! Here we’ll share with your our favourite flattering figuring dresses that suit both small and larger busts, but don’t put your comfort on the line.
The Keyhole Cinched Waist Swing Dress
Why would this work with a fuller bust? Our Casares dress features long sleeves and a flowing skirt, however, the main feature is the small keyhole above the bust and the cinched waist. Both actively narrow the waist, coat the bust and add volume to the lower half of the body – levelling it out.

The Bold Batwing V-Neck Dress
The batwing dress is a much-loved style for all shapes and sizes. It is, however, a style that those with larger busts may feel is best to avoid – alas this is not the case! Worn correctly, a batwing style can flatter the bust as well as bring in the waist and lower half of the body. Wearing something oversized can result in it feeling oversized whereas a batwing dress allows the cinching of the waist and hips before flowing downwards. This type of dress also works perfectly if you’re feeling self-conscious about your stomach area, as both the bust and stomach are covered with excess material, allowing you to breathe without uncomfortably restricting movement.
