Tall Sides Minimizer Bras

Are you a DD cup or larger? Do you sometimes have pulling and gapping between your buttons in button-up shirts? Perhaps you have a hard time fitting your breasts in close-fitting blouses and tops without losing your rounded shape? If you don’t like being forced into a flattened silhouette, you’re not alone. There is a solution!

The best minimizing bras are designed to reduce outward breast projection for larger-breasted women. This helps women look smaller in the bust, without sacrificing the attractive, feminine, and rounded shape. It also makes the breasts more manageable so that you can wear button-front blouses without getting that unappealing pulling look. Indeed, breast minimizer bras are a must-have for when you want to make more restrictive and tighter looks work.

Keep in mind: a minimizer does not actually decrease the size of your breasts. Instead, it reduces your breasts’ projection by resituating the breast tissue from a pointed shape to more of a closely held mound. 

So what makes this possible? Well, it’s all about the cup shape. The cups of minimizer bras are designed with a wider diameter and a shorter projection compared to a traditional bra. This way, your breast tissue can be comfortably redistributed in the cups without causing restriction, discomfort, or a flattened appearance. Instead of outward, the tissue is moved more under your arms, toward your center cleavage, up your chest, and down toward your waist, instead of outwards.

In choosing a minimizer, choose one in your normal bra size. Don’t try to buy a smaller size in the hopes of minimizing your breast projection even more. This will only get you an ill-fitting bra. 

Also, keep in mind that breast minimizer bras are mainly for women with cup sizes DD and above, but they only run up to a G cup. Any size larger than that, and a minimizer won’t be able to do the trick.

Minimizers are great for women who:

• Experience spillage or gaping in the breast area
• Wear a cup size D or above
• Suffer from back or neck pain due to the size of their breasts
• Want a supportive way to reduce breast projection 
• Covet a smoother silhouette

Minimizing bras that fully contain the breast tissue can take one (or more) inches off from your bust. The amount varies according to body type and bra style.

For best results, go for a bra with:

• Underwires that provide added support
• Cups manufactured from low-stretch materials (think Duoplex or cotton) that effectively minimize the breast
• Wider straps for additional support
• A higher neckline for more effective minimization
• A ‘V’ shape for a more flattering silhouette
