How to Stuff Your Bra

There's no shame in stuffing your bra. Adding a little to what nature has given you is easier and less expensive than surgical enhancement. Plus, it has the added benefit of versatility: you can be small-breasted one day, and then big and busty for a night on the town. You have a wide choice of materials, from the humble tissue to higher-end silicone pads. Experiment with the stuffing and sizes that work for you, and enjoy flaunting your fuller silhouette.

Stuffing With Socks

1
Put on your bra. You should choose a bra with some padding: this conceals the extra padding you add.
- It's advisable to also wear your top while you stuff so that you can make adjustments accordingly.
- Depending on how large you want to go, you may need to use a bra that is two to three cup sizes larger than you usually wear.^{[1]XResearch source}
Put your hand into the bra and gently cup your breast tissue, moving each breast up and towards the center. This creates the cleavage that your socks are going to hold up.

3
Choose your socks. The sock thickness and size depends on how much you want to increase the appearance of your breasts.
- Use thick socks for maximum boost. This is great for parties or for dramatic cleavage.
- For a subtle boost, try using thin hosiery socks. This may be preferable for everyday use, formal occasions or slinky dresses that require just a bit more bust.
- Whatever thickness you choose, try to use soft socks to avoid chafing.
4
Fold your socks. Again, how you fold may depend on the type of sock. A good rule of thumb is that the sock should be folded in on itself once.
- Fold the sock in half with the heel at the center.
- Tuck the toes into the top of the sock enough so that the fold is the right size to fit into the bottom of your bra cup.
- Adjust the fold so that it's flat.
5
Insert one folded sock into each bra cup. The sock should nest in the bottom of the cup, where the bra already has padding.^{[2]XResearch source}
- The heel should go into the lower corner towards your armpit.^{[3]XResearch source}
Make sure that both sides are even. Adjust the position of the socks if necessary.

Double Bra-ing

1
Put on a strapless bra. It is best to use a bra with molded cups and padding.
- It is also possible to use strapped bra, if you don't have a strapless.
2
Put on a bra with straps over the strapless. For maximum effect, this second bra should also have molded cups and padding.
- You may need to adjust the back closure a notch wider than usual to accommodate the bra underneath.
Straps that cross in the back tend to pull the breasts together, creating more cleavage. You can convert your bra into an X-back by grasping the straps together behind your shoulder blades and lacing them through a paperclip or safety pin.^{[4]XResearch source}

Using Breast Enhancement Pads

Download Article

1
Buy a pair of breast enhancers. Silicone and foam are common materials; one might be a better choice than the other, depending on your breast size and the shape you're after.
- Silicone inserts are easy to use, have a naturally squishy feel, and are particularly good for creating high, dramatic cleavage.^{[5]XResearch source}
- Foam pads might be preferable for smaller cup sizes.^{[6]XResearch source}
Use a padded bra to minimize any lines around the enhancement pad.
3
Tape your pads to your bra for extra security. Add just one or two small pieces between your pad and bra to ensure everything stays in place.
- Use a double-sided tape specifically for fabrics - this tape can be removed safely with no harm done to sensitive materials.^{[7]XExpert SourceKatie Quinn

You may find you need to loosen here and there to accommodate the added contents in your cup.^{[8]XResearch source}

Method 4 of 4:

Using Tissue

Download Article

Using one with molded cups and padding helps hide your extra stuffing.
It should be about twice the size of your bra cup.
3
Fold the tissue in half. The folded piece should be about the size of your bra cup.
- If it's too large, pieces will stick out and give your secret away. Trim off a bit at the end.
4
Put the square of tissue in your bra so that it fits inside the cup perfectly. Repeat this step on the other side.
- Use one piece of tissue per cup. If you add more, they're more likely to bunch up and ruin your silhouette.
- If you're not satisfied with the amount of boost, try thicker tissues or 3- or 4-ply toilet paper.
5
Check yourself in a mirror and make sure you look symmetrical.
- If it looks uneven, go back to the beginning and repeat with a fresh tissue.
Tissues are not the material of choice, since they absorb and hold moisture from perspiration, losing their shape and making you uncomfortable. However, this method will work if you're in a bind.

Will it work to just take the pads out of one bra and add them to another?

Yes, that could work, if the bra pads are removable.

Question
How do I make my cleavage look better?
Community Answer
Push your breasts up and together and then stuff your bra on the side and that should make a difference in your cleavage.

Tips

Increase gradually. Going from an A to a DD in one day makes it obvious. Keep the same amount of toilet paper in there day by day and then every month make it a little bigger.

Clothing can also enhance your bust. Look for V-neck or sweetheart necklines, or those with ruffles and tiers. Remember that straight, horizontal necklines and darts along the sides of the chest are flattening - avoid these if possible!

Loosen the bra straps and back closure if you need to. Don't let your stuffing cause undue stress on your bra: bras are made of delicate material that can stretch out if not treated with care.
Thanks
