Carissa Rose – Clothing Line for Women with D+ Cups

Well, they pretty much don’t exist.  Certain manufacturers are more generous in the bust curve than others (BCBG, D&G, etc.) but for the most part, designers view the bosom as a nuisance.  If you fall into our WE (Well Endowed) proportions, then you may sometimes luck out and find a shirt to button smoothly over your chest, but if you are special and find yourself fitting our RE (Really Endowed) proportion, then you are going to be hard pressed to find a tailored top for your beautiful female form.

Do you see any room or protrusion of the bustline in this Roland Mouret jacket (yes, in fact that is a man in the picture, he has no bustline)? I can see why designers view the bust mound (yes, pattern making books refer to the bustline as a bust mound) as a nuisance.  We have countless fittings on our fit model to ensure the accuracy of our fit.  But bustlines come high and low, which affects the placement of that all important princess seam.

So we want to encourage you, its not your body which is an aberration of normalcy, but rather ready to wear is just not built for D+ women.  And we’re always saddened when a client in the showroom proclaims, “these breasts are the bane of my existence”.  Carissa Rose is here to empower you with great fitting choices!
