If you consider yourself to be a part of the itty bitty titty committee, then you’d understand our plight when it comes to our constant struggle of finding the right outfits to wear out. The common misconception here is that most tops and dresses look better when your boobs are bigger. Eventually, we find ourselves having to resort to push-up or padded bras — even if they’re uncomfortable.
But what about embracing and feeling confident with what you already have instead of worrying about your chest size? Just because you’re lacking in a certain department doesn’t mean you can’t make stylish outfits all your own! Whether you’re looking for a modest or sexy outfit to rock, ahead, we’ve curated some stylish outfit ideas for you to take inspiration from.
1. Oversized Fits Are Flattering
Oversized fits may look intimidating at first. You may think that they emphasise how flat your chest may look like, but truth is, baggy attire can be volumising and draw less attention to your silhouette than tight-fitting tops do, which is a good thing! You can also layer on more layers without having worry about you looking frumpy too.

2. Your Bra Or Lingerie Can Easily Be Part Of Your Outfit
Whether you’re lounging at home or heading out for a quick errand, a bra, bralette, or some form of lingerie, can also double up as a top. Giving off a more casual look, you can pair it up with outerwear like a blazer or a jacket for a more stylish touch without looking too provocative.

3. Unbuttoned Blouses And Loose T-Shirts Make For A Breezy Alternative
With small chests, you never have to worry about your cleavage overpowering your look. And not to mention, you can ditch the bras too while you’re at it. For a comfortable fit, look to unbuttoned blouses and loose vintage t-shirts to complete your outfit. They’re easy, breezy and totally fuss-free.

4. Layer On Accessories
At times, with tops that expose most of your chest area, you may feel a little uncomfortable with the bare skin on display. The best trick then, is to accessorise. Sure, revealing tops may look better on girls with bigger chests, but that doesn’t mean you cannot wear them and look good.

5. Plunging Necklines Are Also Just As Flattering On Small Chests
The great thing about having smaller chests is that plunging designs are just as flattering as for those with fuller chests. While the latter may be more concerned about wearing the right bra, for us, we can still embrace the look while going braless.
