How to find the perfect DD+ dress for summer
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Finding a dress that flatters your bigger bust can be hard, often dresses can leave your bra showing, squash your bust and just be ill fitting in general.
However, there are a few things you can look out for that will make dress shopping easier.
A V-neck is a really flattering neckline as it gives your chest some more space, however, don't discount a square neck also, not only is this a trendy neckline, but will also give your bust the room it needs.
Empire line fits are also super flattering, you just need to make sure they fall underneath the bottom of your bra, that way your bust will sit nicely before the rest of the dress skims your body.
Wrap style dresses are also a great option but just make sure to look for an added popper detail, so that you don't have to use a safety pin to hold the dress in place and stop your bra from showing.
Extra shirring detail on the back will also give the dress more room for stretch around your chest.
And if you're looking for a backless dress then make sure there is one with a tie detail at the back that means you can still wear a bra.
If all that sounds like something you're interested in then here at Fabulous we have created a collection specifically designed for DD+ boobs that ticks all of these boxes.

I'm a ‘former fatty' who lost 12 stone WITHOUT jabs – being slim means I don't have to eat in the car to avoid judgement

A SELF-DESCRIBED 'former fatty' has admitted losing 12 stone means she's no longer forced to eat dinner in her car. Krista has lost 170lbs over the past four years, but hasn't resorted to weight loss injections or surgery to do so - instead sticking to a calorie deficit and exercising more. 6 Krista, who describes herself as a "former fatty", has shared two things that have drastically changed since she's lost 170lbs Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm 6 She used to find that she was judged for whatever she ate and drank Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm 6 So she used to take her restaurant orders to her car to avoid being judged Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm 6 While another thing she wasn't allowed to do was "be tired" when she was larger Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm She regularly shares tips and tricks on her social media pages, and recently posted a video in which she shared two ways her life has changed since she transformed her figure. "Now that I am skinny I can go to a restaurant and I can just eat whatever I want," "It's cute if I order a burger and fries and eat a lot of food but when I was fat that was not okay. "God forbid I would have ordered a burger! Read more Weight loss stories "I would not have ordered a burger first of all. "I would not have done that just because the judgment around what you're eating, how much you're eating and what you're drinking... they're just like, 'Well of course she ordered a burger, because she's fat, that's why she looks the way she does.' "Or if you try to order a salad or something healthy like grilled chicken it's 'You're not fooling anybody, that's not how you eat - you're 300 pounds!' "You just can't win, so eating in public when you are overweight is mortifying." Most read in Fabulous Things got so bad when Krista was bigger that she'd even resort to eating her restaurant meals in the car. "What I would do is I would eat a couple bites, take my food to go and I would eat it in the car in private," she sighed. I went from 27 lbs in six weeks with Mounjaro after 15 years of trying to lose weight it has completely changed my life "Or I would eat it when I got home, where nobody was judging me." Another thing that's changed dramatically since she lost the weight is that she's now "allowed to be tired". "When you are fat you are not allowed to come around and be like, 'Oh I had such a long day, I just want to go home and sit on the couch'," Krista continued. "The looks you're gonna get, the judgment that you're immediately gonna get, it's disgusting. "But when you're skinny it's okay - it's okay if I had a long day and I want to come home and sit on the couch. "As soon as you are overweight or fat it is not okay because now you're just lazy." Visit our diet, nutrition and weight loss page for the latest updates Krista concluded that the "constant double standard" for those who are skinny and those who are overweight "blows my mind". People in the comments section were quick to agree with Krista, with one writing: "I go to the gym 4 times a week for the past 3 years (I'm fat) and people say 'good for you' 'keep it up'. "My skinny friend goes once in 6 months and someone asked her for advice." "Now I'm pregnant and so much heavier I really appreciate being thin when I'm not pregnant!" a second admitted. "When you're fat, you better be funny, like mandatory, but once you're skinny, if you're the exact same funny it's a cute, surprising, quirky perk," a third sighed. "You're so right!" Krista replied. "I was not funny when I was fat and tried so hard to be, but it's just not my personality!" 6 Krista lost the weight by sticking to a calorie deficit and upping her exercise Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm 6 She's unrecognisable from the person she once was Credit: TikTok/@krista_mm

The Chase's Darragh Ennis challenges Harry Potter fans to ace 'impossible' quiz

Think you're a wizard at Harry Potter trivia? The Chase's very own Darragh Ennis, aka The Menace, has conjured up a quiz to put your fandom to the ultimate test. When he's not on ITV stumping contestants with his encyclopaedic knowledge, The Menace is dishing out challenges on TikTok for muggles and wizards alike. Recently, Dublin-native Darragh whipped up a batch of fiendishly difficult Harry Potter questions, claiming they'd be "impossible" to nail for all but the most devoted fans. Darragh's latest TikTok teaser throws down the gauntlet with five Potter-centric posers, each more bewitching than the last. He's thrown down the gauntlet, asserting that "most" won't crack all five, while allowing that hardcore "mega-fans" might just flaunt their magical prowess by smashing the challenge, reports the Mirror. The five questions Darragh posed are:. For the first question, Darragh said won't be accepting vague answers; he expects both the street name and house number for full marks He even slipped in a clue for the fourth question, reminding us that A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration pops up on Harry's first-year book list, something he would've snagged during his Diagon Alley spree with Hagrid. Think you've sussed out all five brain-teasers? Hold on if you're still mulling them over, because we're about to reveal the answers. Revealing the solutions in his latest video, Darragh shared: The Chase star highlighted that figuring out Emeric Switch as the correct response for the book author question was notably "tough" and tipped his hat to those who got it right. He further explained that Professor Snape's non-Hogwarts abode is on Spinners End, which he described as a particularly obscure detail. The reactions to the quiz were mixed among viewers, with some flexing their trivia muscles, claiming the challenge was "so easy", while others admitted defeat, finding themselves flummoxed by the trickier queries. One viewer boasted: "I got 4/5. Who remembers the authors of random textbooks?" Meanwhile, another proud Potterhead revealed: "Every time I reread the books, I make sure I know who wrote every one of Harry's set books, just in case they come up in trivia, and it finally did!".
