Make a statement in the Upton Dress, a fit and flare dress tailored for curves with cup sizes C-H. Finding fitted bodices can be hard when you have big boobs, but this gorgeous dress will fit your bust beautifully as well as the rest of your body—no major adjustments required.
The Upton Dress puts the design in your hands, as you choose from a scooped or V-neck, high or low back, and a gored skirt or deep, dramatic box-pleats. The pattern features a fully lined bodice (with a cleverly clean-finished zipper), and hidden pockets for every eventuality.
Let your creativity shine, while the Upton takes you from brunch to cocktails in style!
