How to enhance a bust line with the right clothes

When you think “bust line” you don’t generally think “Oprah.” But her corporate team obviously does excellent research as Oprah recommended the Le Mystere Tisha Bra as her favorite bra and now it’s my favorite too. It lifts, it holds, and it is completely seamless (ie, invisible). And never forget that an attractive bust line starts with the bra.

Once you’re gently lifted and held in place by a magical force unknown to man, you have to remember that every body shape is different. So make the decision: is your bust smaller or larger? Now it’s time to dress to impress.

Think of yourself as a canvas and your clothing as the paint and you’re about to create a beautiful painting. If your bust is large it is generally more flattering to wear a v-neck or a scoop neck as it breaks up the chest area and draws the eye away from the bust (which would seem like the WRONG thing to be doing, but actually it’s the RIGHT thing to do geometrically). If your bust is small you want to wear a boat, jewel, or even a higher neckline. These broaden the shoulders and create the illusion of a larger bust.

Those are the rules. Good bra. Think geometry. And a little magic always helps.
