hello - please do excuse that rather un ladylike title! - i recently purchased a bullet bra - but alas, my bosoms are large and roundy in shape and i have some sad little empty bits at the end!!! This is not a good look!! Any tips - do i stuff it (the bra, not the idea!) - and what if i remove my brassiere in the act, what happens to the stuffing??????

many thanks

miss maybe

I've never worn a bullet bra before, but my immediate thought is, can you stitch some stuffing into it? So it won't all come tumbling out when you take it off but you'll achieve the desired pointy look?

I'm sure someone else will have a more sensible idea, but it's a thought  Very Happy

you can buy foam pads to put in the ends of bullet bras but being a costumier my advice is just make them!!

it would just be a case of making some 'pasties' out of foam padding or something so they are pointy but not hard, as that might wreck your actual pasties. If you need them bigger than a pair of pasties (whish i imagine you would to fill out the amount of sagging that occurs on the end of bullet bras) then this may even help keep delicate pasties safe during a lively routine.

I would sew the pads discreetly into the inside of the bra, with an invisible slipstitch or, if you are unsure of how to do this, a see through thread.

hope this helps!
