The straps:

Do you often find your bra straps pinching you or falling down your shoulders? Chances are you are wearing the wrong bra size. Pinching or digging of straps indicates a smaller size whereas falling of straps shows a size bigger. Choosing the right size bra is really important as improper fitting of the straps on the shoulders can cause pain, irritation, redness or even poor posture. Women with heavy breasts should usually go for wide shoulder straps as they provide extra support and comfort.

The cups:

A plus size bra can be identified through big sized cups. Again, a poor fitting bra can lead to many problems. Smaller cups can be identified if there is any spillage of breasts from the top, sides or under the cups. Larger cups can be identified by wrinkles in the cup when worn. Women with fuller breasts should ideally for bras with maximum coverage to ensure no spillage. On top of that, try to look for cups that help with your sagging which many women with heavy breasts face.  

The band:

The most important part of a bra is the BAND! The band of a bra shouldn’t be too tight or too loose. That being said, the bra band should not crawl up your back. Wearing a wrong fitted bra can lead to back and neck pain which makes wearing a correct fitting bra so important. The band shouldn't be tight enough to dig in your back and cause lines and redness and it shouldn’t be too loose either as it will start crawling up your back. To ensure the correct size of a bra, pull your band away from your body and ensure there is enough space to fit in 2 fingers. Choosing a bra with broad back and side bones can also be a great choice for curvy women. Also, the lingerie fabric you choose also plays an important role!

Look for size inclusive brands:

Finding size inclusive lingerie brands is as difficult as finding your perfect bra! The sad part is not all brands make lingerie for curvy women. Look for brands that have plus size lingerie as you will be able to find your true match easily! Brands like Triumph have plus size bras and you can easily find them in online and offline stores. Some common lingerie brands have plus size lingerie but they may miss out the variety you are looking for. These brands surely know how to include both comfort and that touch of spiciness at the same time!

Push up bras for saggy breasts:

If you want an instant lift, push up bra is the way to go for it! Women with heavy breasts often complain about sagginess. There is nothing to be ashamed of or nothing to feel uncomfortable about saggy breasts. But if you are looking for extra support and a more lifted look, you can include push up bras in your lingerie collection 

Don’t shy away from strapless bras:

Women with heavy breasts generally avoid strapless bras. If you think finding your perfect bra is the most difficult part, then you should probably rethink! Finding a good strapless bra especially for big breasts is the one of the most difficult parts while looking for lingerie for curvy women. As there are no straps to provide any support, all of it comes from the band itself so it becomes important to choose the correct band size!
