Top heavy? Still rock in off-shoulder, low-back outfits

New Delhi: Caught in a dilemma about how to carry off an off-shoulder or low-back ensemble as a top-heavy woman? Be smart about choose the right lingerie, say experts.
Karan Behal, CEO and Founder, PrettySecrets and Jennifer Kapasi, Commercial Director, Triumph International, India and Sri Lanka, suggest: * Sheer, backless and crop tops are all the rage this season but while it’s loved by all, women are still clueless about what to wear underneath without ruining the look. If you’re planning on or already picked out an outfit like this, go for a bra with a transparent back strap.
* Find a supportive strapless bra: Choose a bra with a wide underwire and extra enforcement at the sides. Strapless bras that have side boning and broad side wings will give you a secure fit and hold up large breasts comfortably. Nowadays, many ethnic outfits come with thin straps, strapless and even boat neck tops. While they may look absolutely gorgeous, many women avoid buying them either because they don’t know what bra to wear underneath or don’t trust their strapless bra will stay in place.
Even if you opt for garments with a really complicated top half, with its multiway bras are a perfect match.
* Opt for bras that have a self-adhesive silicone strip on the inner band. This will make sure that the bra sticks to your body and doesn’t slide down. Choose a bra with a high centre bridge. This is the centre part of the bra that connects the two cups. The higher the centre bridge, the more coverage your bra will give you so that the tops of your breasts do not spill over.
