writes:I can't get cleavage even though I'm a B-cup!Okay, my left breast is full B and my right breast is about an inch smaller, a small B. Is this why I can't wear a bra or low cut blouse and get cleavage?I also have a fairly wide shoulder span - I'm petite but my shoulders are 17 inches wide - does that spread my breasts out so that I can't find a bra that squeezes them enough together?Any advice for this embarrassing question would be greatly appreciated!

 Hey there,
I work at Victoria's Secret, so I know boobs, bras and cleavage. Hey - someones gotta know, right? Well, I assure you that if A's can find cleavage, YOU can find cleavage. What you need is a strong bra that gives you the perfect lift.
I recommend going into a Victoria's Secret and first ask to be fitted - they'll be able to give you your measurement right there (and don't worry, they do it over your clothes!!). Then, have them help you pick out a bra. Just tell them that you're having trouble finding a great push up... I think you may like the Infinity Edge Push up (part of the Very Sexy collection, thank you Cristie-Anne), the Angel's Air Push-Up (my favorite), or for a BIG BIG boost go for the Very Sexy Extreme Push Up.
If you like wearing low cut shirts, V.S. just released a brand new bra - the Very Sexy Low Cut Push Up. It's a pretty nice bra, you might like that too.
You'll have incredible lift before you know it.
Don't worry sweetness!!
xx India

 I know of some women who use the ubiquitous duct tape. They are pretty handy and you can go figure out how to get that cleavage you want. LOL!

When I finally did grow boobs my cleav was pretty good. Maybe you need some muscle to hold them in the right places.

 Hi Tisha I have D cups and they are rather pert for a woman of 40 lol. To get the killer cleavage go for push up bras, I have a great one designed by Calvin Klein which cost a fiver at a snip in TK Maxx. Make sure you buy a bra that fits you perfectly and not as anon suggested a size smaller, otherwise you will get back problems hence a poor posture. Glad to be of help!!! Dusky xxx.

 Be very thankful now for your B cups because in about 20 years the Cs and Ds don't look so good! And I'm speaking from personal experience, sad to say. Things aren't looking up, to coin a phrase.
Try one of the wonderbra styles that are on the market, you will have to add extra padding necessary to get cleavage, but I think they come with it already in the bra.
You could also fake a bit of cleavage with some careful make-up application and some shading.
But think about how amazing some of the women who don't have large breasts look and copy their clothing choices -- Kate Hudson for example. She shows off her great shoulders and back and looks fantastic...

 im 15 and a 32b...i have the same problem...but what i find is try putting bras on the last hook or wear padding...it works most of the time depending on the bra

reader, anonymous, writes (15 February 2008): I think that it may be because your breasts are quite small, and if you're petite, they probably will be a bit further apart. If you go to a proper lingerie store, and get fitted properly, I'm sure they'll find a bra that suits you exactly, and you'll have an amazing cleavage in no time :] I'm just 16 and a 32E, and believe me, it's more annoying trying to get RID of cleavage haha. Good luck :]
