I’m a shopping pro with 32DD boobs – I know it’s hard to dress for summer with a big chest, my go-to flattering styles
GETTING dressed every day is a chore – especially if you have a larger chest.
If you’re putting together a summer wardrobe, you don’t need to sacrifice style for the sake of supportive bras, one influencer argued.
The warm-weather recommendations come from Kathryn Zingone, a Charleston-based fashion influencer who has built a stylish wardrobe while having a 32DD chest.
She has 255k followers on TikTok, where she shared her favorite summer fashion finds for fellow large-chested women.
“If you have a similar body type, you know that summer clothes are especially hard to shop for,” Zingone said.
The first dress she recommended, the Just Fly Away maxi dress by Hello Molly, is a good example of a style anyone with larger breasts can wear.

“I’m a huge cutouts fan because I think it adds something different,” Zingone said.
Because the dress has cutouts to give it a summery vibe, it also has “a pretty standard neckline.”
“You can wear any bra that you want underneath this,” Zingone explained, because the cutouts allow for a high neck that provides plenty of coverage.
Next, she showed a dress from Princess Polly, the Summer Break mini. From the front, it looks like a standard little black dress.

“This would be a staple dress for me,” Zingone said. “It has adjustable straps, but let me show you the back because that’s what I’m most excited for.”
The back view of the dress on the website reveals a hidden gem: corset-style back ties, which make it adjustable.
“I think that this is so flattering, because you can cinch it in place and keep the girls secure without wearing a bra,” Zingone said.
The dress can be fitted to any chest size, and tightened for more support, a rarity in strappy summer clothes.
Her final fashion staple for this season is another Princess Polly pick, and a variation on the brand’s popular Love Galore romper.
“This is the Princess Polly Love Galore top,” Zingone said, showing off the shirred, fitted top.
Made with lots of elastic and flattering gathered fabric, the shirt can be worn as an off-the-shoulder look or as a cap-sleeve top depending on where the stretchy arm bands fall.
“I would wear any normal, lined nude bra under it,” Zingone explained, “then I would just make sure the straps of the top aren’t off the shoulder, that way the bra straps don’t show.”
She said that a comfortable top that allows her to wear any supportive bra while still looking good during the summer is a game changer.
“This is really groundbreaking,” Zingone said. “This could be my new favorite top.”
She advised her followers to look for similar detailing as they build their own wardrobes this summer, or copy her directly and snap up the chic styles before they run out of stock.
