The other day, I posted a photo on Instagram where my breasts looked noticeably full and perky. Don’t worry, I’m not about to start posting a ton of pictures in revealing outfits or brag about my body online. I simply want to share my experience with a new bra I bought.
This isn’t the type of bra I usually go for, since I mostly stick to moulded-cup styles. However, I was attending a black-tie event and slipping into a dress that took me three years to fit back into—thanks to its black-tie elegance and my personal history with it. The dress seemed a little flat in the chest area when I tried it on recently. My boobs weren’t filling it out like they used to, which is understandable considering the circumstances under which I last wore it.
When I attempted to wear the dress again, my boobs seemed invisible. Though they were there, they just weren’t in the right place for this particular outfit. I have a genuine appreciation for my body after motherhood, but this dress looked much better when it was filled out. Without the volume, the dress gaped at the front, looking rather incomplete.
So, what was the solution? Enter the Wonderbra Ultimate Plunge bra. This deep-plunge bra is a remarkable creation. It works in a unique way, subtly pushing breasts back into the spotlight, all while looking like a regular bra. It is somewhat uncomfortable after prolonged wear, but not unbearable—not at all like the discomfort some other shapewear can cause.
How does this bra work? I suspect it focuses on lifting from the sides because there isn’t much happening in the front. This bra features mysterious side mouldings that push and position your body just right, mimicking the iconic look Wonderbra is known for. The major difference is its low cut, creating the illusion of gravity-defying breasts without revealing the presence of a bra.
Whether you prefer a natural look or desire a more enhanced appearance, this bra delivers. In my case, without it, the dress simply wouldn’t have worked. The fabric threatened to slip, and the top half awkwardly hung, even when securely tied.
I’m now a fan of the Wonderbra Ultimate Plunge. It’s available at Figleaves in nude or black and fits true to size, although the band runs tight. If you’re between sizes, consider opting for the larger one. The bra offers more than just a lift; it creates shape and volume, keeping everything in place for low-cut or flimsy dresses. With straps that offer different wearing options, it provides both security and flexibility.
This bra is ideal for when you need that perfect dress solution, even if going strapless isn’t your style. It’s a wardrobe lifesaver for those tricky outfits, providing comfort and confidence.
