One reason is that busty women cannot find suitable clothes. Two in three have had problems buying clothes.

Among those struggling are these three women, left: Sarah Lee, a 34JJ, Paij Hamiltonwho has 28G breasts but is a size eight, and Angelica Fenney, with a 38GG breast.

Four in five women wearing bustiers say clothes are often too tight, most say items are wide open, while almost half say bra straps are always visible and necklines are too low.

One in four end up buying clothes that are shoddy or old-fashioned and a similar number have been verbally harassed because of their breast size, while one in five say having large breasts has negatively affected their confidence or self-esteem.

That’s why Fabulous is calling on YOU to help us design a new clothing line for women with large busts.

We want to know what styles, colors, patterns and fabrics you like so we can put together clothes that you like.

We hope this means the end of wide open shirts, stuck zippers, tight T-shirts and ugly straps.

Turn the page and read the stories of Sarah, Paij and Angelica and how YOU can get involved.

I would cry, but now I love my bikini

WHEN she was younger, Sarah Lee, 52, a care worker, hated her breasts.

While her friends wore nice bras, she had shabby bras that came in a box from M&S.

And she found it difficult to find fashionable clothes that suited her. Sarah is a 34JJ and lives in Worthing, West Sussex, with her husband Rob, 49, a warehouse worker. She says:

“Even in my teens I was an FF and the trendy, Nice bras would only go up to a D cup.

I always got very teary when I saw my friends buying Nice sets. I would have to buy these bras in a box that was very shoddy and only came in black, white or cream.

There was no choice and I felt shabby compared to my friends.

They all said they wanted bigger breasts, but they didn’t have as much trouble finding clothes as I did.

I really loved fashion, but it was difficult to find something that suited me.

As I got older, in my twenties and thirties, I really hated my breasts. They were so big that I even considered a reduction.

It wasn’t that I didn’t like my body, because I’ve always been very confident, but it was hard to be fashionable.

I wanted to wear trendy with thin straps and backless dresses, but that didn’t work.

Over the years things have gotten better, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

I now feel really confident with my breasts.

By the time you get to my age, you don’t really care what people think anymore.

If people don’t like my appearance, that’s hard.

I love my breasts. I never felt the need to hide them.

Even now, I still wear a bikini on the beach and get the occasional stare, but that’s fine.

A lot of my friends say they would like to be a little bigger and we always joke that I have plenty to share.”

I’m afraid my breasts will sag

With a height of only 1.80 meters and size 8, Paij Hamilton has generous G-cup breasts and has difficulty finding suitable clothes.

Paij, 31, from Hackney, east London, was only ten when she started developing and by her 13th birthday she was an F cup. Paij, who works at a housing association, says:

“I got a lot of attention at school and felt very self-conscious.

Boys made comments and I often got wolf whistles in the street and cars honking. I always felt like there were eyes on me.

All my life I have struggled to find clothes that fit.

I really have trouble buying outfits because I’m so small, but I don’t want anything that’s too tight or restrictive around my chest because that just pushes them out more and draws even more attention.

You have to pay a lot more for well-fitting bras and bikinis if you have large breasts, it can be very expensive.

Sometimes I have to pay to have things custom made so they fit me better

Sometimes I have to pay to have things custom made so they fit me better. Bikinis are especially difficult to buy.

Even in my early 30s, they aren’t as stubborn as they used to be, so I’m hoping they don’t drop off too much as I get older or have kids. That thought scares me.

I just launched my own company called body pH, selling underwear solutions for women with large busts, such as bra liners.

I’m currently single and people are often shocked to hear my cup size, which can be a pro and a con when dating.

Last year I went on a date with someone I met online and I felt the man’s eyes on my chest a few times, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Afterwards I told him that I didn’t see the relationship going anywhere, and he just upped and left.

I hope that soon I will find a man who sees me as more than just a pair of big breasts.”

COVERING AVOIDS ATTENTION

SINGLE Angelica Fenney, 45, avoids relationships because boyfriends get jealous of other men looking at her 38GG breasts.

The plus-size model from Liverpool has had big breasts since she was a child – and was told by doctors that they now weigh a combined THREE STONE.

She says: “I’ve always been big chested. When I was 12 I wore D cup bras.

In high school I always got a lot of attention and would catch boys sneaking glances at my cleavage.

They made me feel uncomfortable and I wished they were smaller. I always thought I was going to get a breast reduction. I hated them so much.

When I was seventeen I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had an inverted nipple since birth and although I didn’t know it at the time, it is a major risk factor.

I had surgery and went on with my life, but in my late 20s I was diagnosed breast cancer a second time and cervical cancer.

I had to have another surgery and a full hysterectomy. I was told I would lose my breasts.

But I fought to keep them and the surgeons only removed the nipple. I knew I wouldn’t be able to have children and I think it was my breasts that still made me feel feminine.

I don’t always like the attention, so I try to cover it up

For the first time in my life I started to appreciate them.

When I’ve had partners in the past, they don’t like the attention I get because of my breasts.

They get jealous and that causes arguments. That’s one of the biggest reasons why I’m still single. It’s not worth the effort.

Men have even walked into walls looking at my chest. My nieces will laugh and say people are staring at me.

I don’t always like the attention, so I try to cover it up. I have a size 16, but often I have to buy a size 18 or 20 and pay to have it taken.

If something fits around my breasts, it’s loose everywhere.

My breasts are very heavy. Fabrics are often not supportive enough. A clothing line for large-chested women is a brilliant idea.”
