"My eyes are higher!" How many times, every day, do you have to repeat it to that guy who just can't take his eyes off your breasts? If you want people to stop looking at your chest, there are several ways to make it appear smaller. Read on to learn more.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Dressing to Minimize the Appearance of the Breast
Step 1. Put on a bra of the right size
Having a bra that fits perfectly to your body is one of the simplest ways to improve the appearance of the bust in general. The cup of the bra should cover most of the breast and the band should fit loosely along the back in a straight line. The shoulder straps should not be used as support, it is the band that has to support most of the weight. Go to a corsetry store to find the model that fits your body best.
- Go to a store that offers bras in a wide range of sizes and sizes, especially sizes beyond DD. This is extremely important if you want to find one that's right for you. Many stores aim to sell products that are available in stock, while in the clothing departments of supermarkets you will find only the most common sizes, which do not fit every body type.
- Do not insist and do not rely only on the size of the bra; you may find that you carry a 32E instead of the 34DD. In this case there is no problem. The fit of a bra is more important than the number or letter on the label. If the size fits well you will surely have a better look which will help you increase your self-esteem.
- When the breasts are well supported and lifted, it helps to improve the appearance of the waist and slims the bust.
- Have your measurements taken every now and then to make sure you are wearing the correct model.
Step 2. Put on a minimizer bra
This model allows you to redistribute the breasts giving the impression of having reduced the circumference of the bust by a few centimeters. The important thing about these bras is that they don't flatten the breasts.
The minimizer styles allow you to wear tighter clothing, without sacrificing your comfort. Thanks to this model, the buttons of the blouse will not give the impression of being about to explode and the breasts will seem smaller even when wearing a turtleneck sweater
Step 3. Put on darker colored clothes
Just as these shades are able to streamline the silhouette, in the same way they minimize the visual impact of the breast.
- A fitted black jacket is always elegant and perfect for business meetings. A black dress for evening occasions streamlines, lends itself to accessories and adapts to any situation.
- Choose a dark top with a light skirt or a pair of trousers and shoes that catch the eye.
Step 4. Wear the right garment
The choice of shirts and sweaters is very important if you want to minimize the appearance of the breasts. Whichever style you choose, you need to think about avoiding any cut, color or pattern that emphasizes breast size.
- Wear V-neck dresses. Make sure the neckline stops right at the décolleté. You can also wear a crew neck, a boat neck or a sweetheart neckline. The important thing is to make sure that the neckline does not go down too deep, otherwise you will attract more attention to the breasts.
- Don't wear anything that has too many ruffles or flounces.
- Don't completely rule out horizontal stripes and tops with a boxy cut. Try a top with a straight cut that falls straight across the chest without creating a balloon effect. Even dresses with horizontal stripes that adhere well to the body can divert attention from the breast. Try wearing Capri pants to avoid having a puffy or flared look on the lower body.
- Avoid low-cut tops. A top that goes down too much frames and enhances the large breasts even more, so it is practically impossible to take your eyes away from there.
Step 5. Choose the right fabric
Some types of fabric draw more attention to the bust. Satin, velvet and thick knit can emphasize the bust. Avoid light sequin tops and halter tops. Instead, wear cotton, soft fabrics and cashmere.
When putting on a shirt, opt for a soft fabric, such as thick cotton or terry that sits on the torso without sticking too much. Wear a comfortable crew neck t-shirt tucked into your skirt or a pair of masculine-cut jeans to avoid a “curtain” effect at the breast level and at the same time have a nice style
Step 6. Put on jackets and cardigans
The cardigan takes your eyes off your breasts and the long straight lines minimize curves. Dressing in layers also helps cover up the curves you want to hide. Wear blazers and open jackets. Don't worry about choosing a size big enough to close the buttons or zipper on the front; the important thing is that it fits well on the arms, back and shoulders, since you have to wear it open.
- Dressing in layers is fine if you have large breasts. The different sweaters or jackets cut the clothing line, drawing attention away from the bust. If the shirt is too low-cut, wear a tank top or camisole under it. Not only is it fashionable, but it also helps to cover the décolleté.
- Find a heavy, full-bodied fabric jacket that will take your eyes off your bust. Biker jackets are fine, thanks to the different layers of fabric on the chest and the length that does not drop below the waist.
- If the lapels of the blazer do not fall properly on the chest, choose a style that does not have them.
- When shopping for the coat, choose a single-breasted one.
Step 7. Don't wear long necklaces
They draw the eye down and right on the breasts. On the contrary, you shouldn't wear any or at most one with a crew neck. Or, another style suitable for your case is a large necklace. Choose one with multiple pieces or elements of pearls / gemstones.
Step 8. Don't wear tight blouses
The buttonholes subjected to great traction and the buttons about to explode attract attention right to the breast. The decorative motifs and designs of tight shirts and t-shirts often distort right on the breast. For this reason, choose tops that have the right fit without tightening.
However, also avoid shirts that are too loose, as these also don't fit too well. Choose the ones that fit and fit your silhouette well
Step 9. Put on some scarves
A scarf wrapped around the neck not only gives an elegant look, but can also help reduce the appearance of the breast. Try pairing it with a jacket, cardigan or sweater.
Method 2 of 2: Physically Reduce Breast Size
Step 1. Get slim
The breast is made up of fatty tissue. If you follow a program to lose weight in general, you reduce the fat tissue in the body and consequently also that of the breasts. Many women on a weight loss diet notice an initial reduction in fat in the chest area.
- Set up a cardio exercise routine. Activities such as walking, biking or exercising on the elliptical bike are great for boosting metabolism and burning fat. Dancing, swimming, and kickboxing are also other great cardio exercises. If you have no difficulty doing this, try running or jogging. Any activity that speeds up your heart rate and keeps you moving is enough.
- Train for a minimum of 45 minutes, 5-6 days a week.
- Make sure you wear a sports bra that fits snugly to protect your breasts when doing cardio exercises.
- If, despite following an exercise program and sticking to a regular diet, you are not seeing any positive results on breast reduction, it may be because you have dense tissue instead of fatty tissue. Dense breast tissue cannot shrink with diet and physical activity.
Step 2. Eat a healthy low calorie diet
To try to lose weight and burn fat, be sure to eat a healthy "fat burning" diet. The ideal foods for this purpose are whole grains, lean proteins, fruits and vegetables and lots of water.
Don't drastically cut down on food. Cutting calories too abruptly slows down your metabolism, disrupting all the hard work being done. Aim to consume at least 1200 calories per day and remember to replenish your energy reserves after a training session
Step 3. Do strength exercises
In addition to cardio workouts, include exercises to build muscle mass into your routine, so you tone and build your chest muscles. Know that these exercises do not eliminate fat in the chest area but, combined with cardio activity and a healthy diet, will help you firm your breasts.
- Try the following exercises: push-ups, pull-ups, press-ups, pecs, bench presses, and front lifts.
- Strengthening the chest, back and shoulders can help if you have upper back pain, neck pain, shoulder stress, or poor posture due to breasts.
- You should do these exercises at least 2-3 times a week. Start with 8-10 repetitions and gradually increase. To tone up, you should use lighter weights and do more reps. Heavier weights lifted for fewer repetitions, on the other hand, develop muscle volume.
Step 4. Band the breasts
This is a useful method for limiting movement if you want to dress like a man or if you need to flatten your chest. You can buy secure breast flattening bandages online or from some specialty retailers.
- Never use elastic bands or duct tape to hide your breasts, as they can cause serious consequences, such as broken ribs and a build-up of fluid.
- Always wear a bandage that fits your size. Never buy one that is too small to try to over-squeeze your breasts, you could experience serious side effects.
Step 5. Get your breasts reduced surgically
Surgery removes fat, tissue and skin to give the breasts a smaller or more aesthetically pleasing size. However, be aware that this is a rather expensive procedure and for some women it can be drastic. If you want to undergo this surgery to reduce your breasts, make an appointment with a plastic surgeon.
Advice
- You should never be ashamed of your appearance, you must be proud of your body, regardless of the shape and size of your breasts.
- Maintain good posture and a look that makes you comfortable.
