Not for the Rack: One Shoulder

1950s Timeless Vixen Vintage

Bad for Boobs: One Shoulder or the Plunging V

Here's the thing about a one shoulder dress, it lulls you into a false sense of security, Fashionable Reader. Unless you have a good corset, there is no security. The world has yet to invent (nor will it ever) a strapless bra that actually works for any lady over a D cup.

No, don't correct me. It isn't just the existence of the bra I am calling into question, it is the psychological nature of one shoulders (and strapless for that matter). It makes any woman with a chest self conscious: there is the under-the-armpit neckline tug, the constant subtle head tilt of checking, and the self-conscious slouch. Trust me, a one shoulder is just not worth it.

Speaking of which . . .

Now, if you still want that one shoulder asymmetrical look. Why not try something like this instead?
