The Maxi Dress is my new style and fashion find for the summer. I wear it to the pool, evening events and just lounging. It was imperative that I find the right bra. The straps are thin and the design of the dress is low plunge. At first I almost rejected the style, then I found the perfect strapless to compliment. Strapless is one of the best items a woman can own to take her wardrobe to another level. I use the same strapless for my T-shirts. By having a strap to attach, you have a multiple solution. The halter or low back is your friend. Don’t forget, size is everything with a strapless bra. Summer is a great time to check your fit and make sure your wearing the correct size bra. Now there is a solution for A cups to J cups and beyond. Show it off this summer girlfriend!

The other day I was at the mall and saw a woman wearing a black sun dress that was stunning until I walked up to her closer and saw her bra straps. I am sure we have all had wardrobe malfunctions and challenges.

What’s a woman to do? We as women should always be thinking about arming ourselves with summer wardrobe solutions that empower us to live life to the fullest. I am certain that the woman I noticed only wanted to wear her beautiful dress, but was not equipped with the right undergarments. I believe in solutions, not problems, so my recommendation for the black dress diva would have been a bra that allows you to take off the straps and do a clear strap. The other option, and a big come back trend is the tube top. The tube top can be a bra or an entire camisole that provides a shapewear solution as well. I love this!

One of the advantages of wearing the tube top is that it can be worn underneath a jacket or shrug for another wardrobe solution. Anytime you can get two for one, it’s a score. A tube top bra in color is another fashion solution for when the dress is too low. If you had a print dress and wanted to pop color underneath, the bra would appear to be a camisole. The tube top is also another way to wear spaghetti strap dresses. Simple ideas such as this make getting dressed fun.
Calvin Klein F3009
One of the major complaints I receive my from my clients is that seamless bras especially contour look too industrial or rigid. I agree, and yes the companies heard women as well and have now taken a new approach to handling the request.

The lace is used in discreet or hidden places that provide a touch of glamour but not intrusion on your bra. If you’re searching for something new, combining the softness of lace with a seamless bra is a favorite for summer tank tops and knits. Bella!

Women everywhere remember the stunning, sexy and powerhouse diva Raquel Welch. Her new book “Beyond The Cleavage” is a fascinating self empowerment tool for women 50 plus, and or anyone who wants to learn how to embrace life with vigor and zest. When I speak about lingerie, I thought I had a selection of great metaphors. After watching Raquel on Bonny Hunts show, I was mesmerized with envy. She made mention of how her “rack” would not fit into the “modern bra”. She stated how she had a full crowd and they (her girls) can not be pushed into a small balcony! I was rolling. Right on Raquel! This is what I call confidence and owning who you are with no embarrassment. She shared additional lessons on life and defining what age means and looks like for her right now. I enjoyed listening to her describe her journey with her body and her life. One of things she said that I loved is that “you can change things”. I believe this is the key to looking good daily as it pertains to lingerie. Embrace who you are, flaws and all…Give yourself some love! Thanks for sharing Raquel.

In the sixteen years I have been a lingerie fitter and expert, there has been one bra that has stood out amongst the crowd. The Wacoal 65149 has been my client’s top picks. The stretch lace cup is amazing! I have seen so many women love this bra after having surgery or having challenges with one side smaller than the other. If you have an issue with sloping shoulders, Wacoal 65547 is your friend.

Sloping shoulders is a term for people who have bra straps fall off their shoulders. The 65547 also comes to a 40DD. I had a client who brought her friend to have a fitting after treatment for a lumpectomy. They both ended up buying the bra, and it was a thrill to witness. It’s a gift that two women can wear the same fabulous bra despite a minor challenge. This is what I call empowerment to the next level. Don’t forget to support the Gal to Gal Walk!
On Gossamer Bump It Up
When I speak across the country, often women laugh about my term “mountain top experience”. In all fairness to the petite or “mini mountain” ladies out there, they too want to have uplift and something to fill their cups. I wanted to focus on the importance of those women who are petite and need a bra that really fits them. A few years back, I was so excited when Wacoal launched their petite collection. Over the years, I have found additional brands and companies that provide ample shape for the smaller framed woman. I will continue to spotlight these bras in our blog over time. One of the most popular has been On Gossamer Bump It Up style 3201. I have been shocked to see clients who could not fill a cup change their entire shape with this bra. You have the ability to twist the center and increase the bust by an entire size. Wacoal Petite style 75604 is a beautiful contour with lace and special designed cups that fill in the gaps when she is challenged in the volume area. I once had a client scheduled for implants who cancelled because of this bra (true story). Tell your girlfriends or yourself who are always complaining they don’t have enough they have options. Another great place to shop for lingerie is www.lulalu.com, an online store just for Petites.
We will continue to review collections…stay tuned.
