Are low cut necklines the new sexy?

| | 0 comments
Melbournian here! It seems that the latest fashion fixation that I and many others share at the moment is the super sultry and sexy low cut neckline. When worn correctly, this look just screams chic and classy. As demonstrated by no other than the super mysterious and smouldering Megan Fox. 

Her last name isn't 'Fox' for nothing ;P

Ew!
When done incorrectly, it simply screams cheap and tacky, as noted on the right photo!
















This look (when done correctly) is just so stunning, dressy and simple for either a night out on the town or dinner at an A grade restaurant.

To achieve this look successfully without pulling a Janet Jackson there are a few options.
 A “U” Bra is probably the most secure option, as you don’t have to stress about anything being exposed.  It means you can feel comfortable all night whether you’re at a night club dancing or at a party and still pull off the sexy plunging neckline.

the plunging neckline

Another option is the not so nice looking- Chicken fillets/ stick on bra. They might not look too appealing but they come in handy when wearing a low cut dress and are particularly handy if the dress also happens to be backless. The stick on bra is effective but doesn’t give as much support as the U-bra, and because it stays on due to the adhesive, a lot of movement can cause it to move out of place.

The other option is to purchase these little tabs (Braza Bra) that are similar to double-sided tape for the body, which you tape over your breasts and they cling to the dress and prevent it from moving. They are designed in such a way that when you put them on they cover everything while also providing lift. They are very sticky so there shouldn’t be too much concern of anything being exposed, however Angelique tells me that, if it's lift you are after then the sticky strips are not your answer.



All of these items can be purchased at Bras N Things.

To sum things up, this look is so easy to achieve and brings a nice change from the high neckline that has been in style for the past season or so. Why not bring back a little heat this winter?! 

With this dress I wore the 'Stick on Bra.'
It just goes to show that you don’t have to hide your assets to look elegant.
