When I launched the Parfait by Affinitas Big Spring Giveaway, I asked for each entrant to share something they long to see in our DD+ world, in honor of Parfait introducing to the market something I’d dreamed of after much wasted time in fitting rooms: pretty lingerie made for full busts, sized like bras, instead of small, medium, and large.
I wasn’t alone in my joy over this DD+ solution…here’s how happy a few of you were to discover bra-sized lingerie, too!
I just found your company!!! Wow. Love love love your collections…this is my dream come true!
I have always hoped for a company to make lingerie for FULL-busted women…and you are the answer to my hopes!!!!

I’ve had a few of these jump-for-joy DD+ moments over the years:
- Stumbling upon cup-sized swimwear (a God send!) in Linda’s Bra Shop,
- Learning about some of the companies making boob-friendly versions of the classic white shirt so we can, you know, *button* the frigging things
- Falling in love with Bravissimo’s strappy tank tops with a built-in bra.
It seems like more and more amazing products for our size range are coming on the market all the time!
So with all these inspiring DD+ innovations, I thought I’d share in this post some of the most creative ideas for the full-busted market that you all came up with. I seriously want all these things you’ve come up with, like, now! … Who knows? Maybe they’re not too far off from becoming a reality (lingerie designers, feel free to take notes!!). Tomorrow, I’ll share some of the DD+ solutions we’re hankering for.
MOST CREATIVE DD+ IDEAS
- A summery dress with a built-in bra. I am sick of thick straps showing or top/sides of bra peeking out of lovely light, strappy dresses. Please dress gods, make a pretty dress with enough support for a G bust! [Can we get Pepperberry designers on the case for this one?! --Sarah]
- A nude, seamless, padded full-fit bra with a high center gore, with, like, pink embroidery along the band and straps (for instance, roses or snakes).
- Neon colored convertible bra that truly fits! [Sounds like a job for Claudette to me! --Sarah]
- My dream full-busted bra would be a lightly padded longline – at least six hooks for extra support and comfort – and would either be wirefree (I can dream!), or have soft wires encased in foam. It would come in a big size range – starting at a 24 or 26 back, and going up to a K cup – so that everyone can experience the wondrousness of it. It would come in both basic, sexy black & lots of lovely colours and cute designs (raspberry! tattoo print! blush!), so one could wear it as a top in summer, if they were daring!
- I’ve always wanted a cheeky bright navy pinstripe bra that was kinda silky, a la pin up girl of the olden days. [Love retro inspiration! --Sarah]
- My dream product is a good quality knit nightgown with a soft bra insert. One that comes down to the knee. [Amen! I recently tried this one from Bravissimo; probably not exactly a perfect match to your description, but maybe in the ballpark? --Sarah]
- A pink, polka-dot set (Pink background with white polka dots). A very balconette style (think Curvy Kate Tease Me), with a ruffle at the bottom. White ribbon along the top. Matching high-waisted knickers, with sheer side panels (in pink!). Oh, and a babydoll that matches.
- Those strapless “corset tops” my friends wear. [I've long lusted after the D&G corset tops. Le sigh. --Sarah]
- My dream full busted bra set is completely inspired by Paris. I’d like the bands, straps, and seat (of the knickers!) covered in an Eiffel Tower, poodle, and baguette print! The cups would be all Leavers lace and the bottom would have a sheer panel below the belly and through my hips. [Squee! How gorgeous does that sound?? --Sarah]
