‘The exact hack I’m looking for’ women with big boobs hail as fashion pro shows how to wear a bra AND a halter neck top
A FASHION whizz has shared an “excellent” underwear hack for those who have big boobs – and it’s a money saving trick too.
Bo Brown, who claims to be the “source of useful fashion and beauty inspo,” has gone viral with her money saving underwear trick.
She has explained that wearing a bra in the usual way, in which the straps go straight over each shoulder, isn’t the best for those who want to wear a halter neck top.
And unfortunately, for those with big boobs – not wearing a bra isn’t an option.
Bo has discovered a more creative technique when it comes to wearing your bra – and it will hold your boobs up, without having the bra straps on show.
Bo, who has 1.6 million followers on Instagram, shared a video of herself demonstrating how to put a bra on when you were wearing a halter neck, which shows off the shoulders.
She first starts off by holding the straight, with each strap in each hand.
But rather than putting one arm through each side, she puts one side of the bra over her head before getting the other side and doing the same.
Bo then demonstrates how it should look, which is in the form of a cross across the chest.
She then puts her arms through each side, which will make the back strap rest on your back.
The video, which she shared to her YouTube channel, then shows how her boobs are secure and the straps are hidden from her shoulder.
Hundreds rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts.
One wrote: “Excellent hack! Cheaper than buying a special bra for one thing.”
Another added: “This is the hack that I was looking for.”
A third said: “Always wanted to know this!”
Whilst another fan wrote: “That’s what I need, I’ll try it later.”
But some questioned how comfortable the fashion trick is.
One wrote: “Ya, for like 10 mins. That would be so uncomfortable.
“Especially right under the neck where the straps cross.”
And some thought the fashion hack may be a bit too tight for them.
One wrote: “Bras that fit you don’t have straps with that much of length when it crosses around your neck, that’s gonna strangle you.
“You rather have bras with two different removable straps so that you can wear a halter neck and normal tops.”
Don’t panic if you have big boobs
Many women suffer with bra issues throughout different seasons of the year.
THREAD senior stylist Millie Rich and stylist Hannah Thistleton has urged people to not panic about their bras, as there’s plenty of hacks out there.
She says: “You don’t need to be a savvy DIY-er for this hack, but it’s perfect for non-bra lovers.
“Simply sew an old bra into a backless dress for built-in support.
“Just chop off the straps and hand-sew it into any dress. Wa-la!”
Bra converter
She also recommends using a bra converter for low-back dresses.
Millie says: “Not wearing a bra isn’t really an option if you’ve got more going on in the breast department.
“However, bra converters are a handy way to hide unsightly bra back straps if you’re going for something with a plunge back.”
Hannah also recommends not getting deterred by bralettes.
Hannah says: ‘We all spend our day-to-days in basic cotton t-shirts, so finding the perfect base layer for this is fairly crucial.
“Designed to feel like a second skin, a bralette is free of any fastenings, padding, or underwire for a clean finish.
“Opt for planet-friendly Lyocell because it’s super soft and cool to the touch.
“If you have a bigger bust, you can still get on the bralette hype, just look out for supportive features like wide bands and high backs for comfortable all-day wear.”
