So, there's the thread about how to flatten your chest... So this is the thread about how to make your chest (ok, your breasts) look bigger.

Basically my friend is going to cosplay as Fujiko from Lupin III this year. As you may know, Fujiko is pretty well endowed (ignoring the fact that she is a cartoon). My friend was just wondering if there was any way to give the illusion of being more well-endowed than you actually are, without resorting to buying a Wonderbra or a push-up bra or packaging tape and ties (as I saw used in a fashion magazine to give a man better cleavage than I have...).

Awkward, I know, but thanks in advance for any help.

Never ever use tape ever! Bad bad idea! You can rip of layers of skin. I've seen it happen and it's not pretty.

I did a quick google and this page offers lots of good advice: http://searchwarp.com/swa9151.htm

-Padded bra
-Cups
-Corset*

*Corsets are meant to slim the waist. However, if they're the correct size, the corset will go right under the bust and can lift them to be more perky. Also, when the waist looks slimmer, the breasts look larger by comparison.

Corset is definitely a good idea, but you're still looking to drop around 80 bucks. You may as well give in and get a push-up. Nice VS ones go for around 40 bucks. They are good quality and will last you a long time. Nothing wrong with giving the girls a little lift ;D

This really helped a lot, thanks to everyone who gave suggestions! I'll pass them on to my friend (and might keep them in mind, I mean, Setsuka and all...).

I'm an A cup and that won't ever change. I'm wearing a corset for my costume this year and a padded bra and you can kind of see in my progress pics from the Amber Sweet cosplay that there is some cleavage that created. That's the most I can expect though. I still look like an A cup, it just looks a little better and emphasizes what little I have. :(

I didn't really think that making a larger bust would be a big role in cosplay. It's kind of weird, at least to me.

Ladies ladies ladies, if you find a man whose only concern about a woman is her breast size, he just may be dumb enough to believe you if you say you have Ds when you have Bs. :thumbup:

Large padded bra and tissues/toilet paper/bubble wrap. Use the filler to push your boobs up. This is what I do for Tsubaki (who is very...talented)
