[quote=Anonymous]For reference: I'm 5'5" and 32G. Finding a bra that does its job and is comfortable is something to celebrate.

Knits are your friend. V and scoop necks will do wonders: lengthens the neck and, if not too low, de-emphasizes the volume of your chest.

If you have crew neck and turtlenecks in your wardrobe that you like, try accessorizing with necklaces or scarves to create a visual V / break up the expanse of fabric. You can also fill in a neckline that otherwise feels too revealing.

Talbots tops run long in the torso (I usually by petites from them), so they might be a good fit for you. They also have plus sizes that are the same style as the rest of their clothes. Yes, some of it is old lady-ish, but some is more modern, or at least classic enough to be the building blocks of your wardrobe.

Banana Republic tops also seem to run long in the torso. How generous they are in the bust varies with the style.

Boden tops are usually generous in the bust. They used to give the measurements of the actual garments by size, so you could know how deep the V neck actually was. I don't know if they still have that information on their website or not.

I have found that Vineyard Vines is also very generous in the chest.

In dresses, Lauren Ralph Lauren tends to be shaped for larger chests and narrower hips.

Lululemon makes a sports bra in a DDD. If I size up one cup size, it is a great fit and I can run in it (so instead of a 32DDDD, I wear a 32DDD). It has adjustable straps and hooks on the band.

The woman who writes Wardrobe Oxygen is on the cusp of misses and plus. You might find some good ideas from her blog.[/quote]
