I’m plus size with 38DDD boobs – 4 bra hacks that will help you while shopping and make every outfit look stylish
A PLUS size woman with 38DDD boobs has revealed a few bra hacks that will help you while shopping and make every outfit look stylish.
In a YouTube video, April Golightly spotlights some useful tips for women with DD+ boobs, which include minimizers, strapless bras, and even push-up tape.
April, a 5’2” fashionista who admits her bra size fluctuates when she loses or gains weight, shared her tips in a video titled: “Big BUST Bra Hacks for Women with DD+.”
The first thing she recommends is a minimizer bra, specifically one called the Chantelle Minimize.
April explains: “It helps minimize your boobs so that they don’t look giant because as a big busty woman I know that sometimes you feel like your breasts kind of dress up everything you wear, that everything is a little bit more revealing on you, dressy on you.
“With a minimizer, you can tone that down a little bit.”

The style guru enjoys wearing this bra in the office or anywhere she wants to “tone down” her sexiness.
Another bra April suggests bigger-breasted women use is a Wacoal strapless bra.
She explains the bra “has this like sticky material on it that helps you hang on, and by putting it straight onto your breasts you’re actually sealing them in and holding them up.”
April showed her viewers how she looks wearing the Wacoal bra in a 38DDD and advised the bra should be put straight onto the chest and then clasping it together in the back.

She noted these bras are offered in various sizes and colors, so they are perfect for all body types.
Another type of bra April reveals works wonders for women with big boobs, is a front closure bra.
“This one is like a front closure and awesome because it kind of opens up all these super low-cut tops that you can wear with that,” she said.
April then showed viewers how she looks in a light green, low-cut romper with a front closure bra on – and she looks incredible.
“The cool thing is that with my correct size, a 38H or G, with this, then it fits perfectly.”
Lastly, another tip April suggests women try is using push-up tape when needed, and even putting a nipple cover or a bra pad over the boobs before putting the tape on your skin.
“It’s called push-up tape – this stuff actually works and it pulls you up,” she said. “This tape is very, very strong so I recommend using one of those little pads that come in your bras. Cover everything and then use the tape over it.”
She advises the use of tape when an outfit has a deeper cut out in the front, adding: “You can go backless, you can wear all kinds of things.”
April also notes that putting the tape on from bottom to top has given her the best results.
She continued: “Depending on how big busted you are will depend on how many pieces of tape you need. And obviously, with a bra, you will need less pushing up.
“But if you’re doing it without an actual bra with it, then you will need more tape to hold you up.”
