So I found a really cute sundress I would like to buy, but I would like to increase my bust size a little to fill it out. I found some silicone bra inserts on amazon, both individual and ones that are connected in the Middle. Do any of you have any experience in this department?

Any advice or experiences even tangentially related would be appreciated!

Thanks

    I am still using my spouse’s bras for the most part, and their chest is smaller than mine, so the stretchier sports bras allow me to kind of “pull myself in” and pinch a little cleavage together. It’s not a lot, but it’s enough to make a difference in form fitting clothes.

    The foam WILL soak up sweat, so I wash them after every use where it heats up, just in case.

      Interesting, now I regret telling my wife to throw out her old bras last month lol. Dunno if they would have worked but maybe I would have gotten lucky. Oh well

        Lol I am just glad they’re a bit of a pack-rat, and they’ve got a couple bags of “old clothes”, some never worn, gifts etc, they’ve been meaning to donate, but once we found out about an LGBT group that hosts a “free market” where you basically bring donations (or not if you don’t have any) and browse for things you might need. It’s been pretty much a clothing swap for all the trans members lol

        I’m just lucky they canceled the last two meetings, or I wouldn’t have anything left. Sucks they canceled this month though, I would have loved to go. I’ve got a bunch of clothing I never plan on wearing and some of the transmascs in the group are close to my size, one of whom explicitly said they wanted to find some shorts like the ones I had on at the time.

        Sorry I tend to ramble…

        Maybe you could find a foam push up bra at a thrift store, and might be able to utilize it? Worth a try!
