Quick answer
The Audrey Skirt is a great choice for D+ to J cup bodies because its bias-cut, high-rise design balances the bust without adding bulk, and the elastic waistband provides a secure, comfortable fit.
Why the Audrey Skirt works for a larger bust
The Audrey Skirt is cut on the bias from a floral viscose that drapes rather than clings. This means it skims over the hips and thighs without pulling or gaping at the waist – a common issue when the top half is fuller. The high-rise waist sits at your natural waist, which is the narrowest part of your torso, creating a visual balance between your bust and lower body.
Because the skirt is not fitted through the hip, it does not compete with a larger bust for attention. Instead, it creates a continuous line from bust to hem. The concealed side zip and elastic waistband also help you get a snug fit without needing to size up just to accommodate a wider ribcage or broader shoulders.
Sizing considerations for D+ to J cups
The brand notes that the Audrey Skirt runs one size larger through the hips. For a D+ to J cup body, this is actually helpful: you can choose your size based on your natural waist measurement, and the extra room in the hip means the skirt will not pull across the widest part of your lower body. This avoids the dreaded 'muffin top' effect.
If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if your waist is the primary fit concern, because the elastic waistband can stretch. If your hips are significantly wider than your waist, stick with the size that matches your hip measurement – the elastic waistband will still work.
Styling tips for a balanced silhouette
Pair the Audrey Skirt with a fitted top that has a V-neck or scoop neck to elongate the neckline and draw the eye upward. Avoid overly loose or boxy tops, which can make the bust appear larger and the skirt look disconnected from the upper body.
For a monochromatic look, choose a top in a color that matches one of the floral tones in the skirt. This creates a vertical line that slims the midsection and balances the bust. A structured blazer or cardigan that hits at the waist can also help define your shape without adding bulk.
How to choose and wear the Audrey Skirt
- Measure your natural waist: Use a soft tape measure around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above your belly button. This is the size the elastic waistband will sit at. Do not add extra inches for your bust – the skirt does not need to fit over your chest.
- Choose size by waist, not hips: Because the skirt runs one size larger through the hips, your waist measurement is the key. If your waist falls between sizes, size down for a snugger fit or size up for a looser drape. The elastic waistband gives you about 2 inches of stretch, so a smaller size can still work.
- Test the length with your preferred shoes: The midi length hits around mid-calf on most bodies. If you are on the shorter side (under 5'4"), the hem may fall lower. Try it with the shoes you plan to wear most often. A midi length can visually shorten the legs, so pair with nude heels or pointed flats to elongate.
- Style with a fitted top and V-neck: A fitted top with a V-neck or scoop neck balances the bust and creates a continuous line from shoulder to hem. Avoid high-neck or oversized tops that make the bust look separate. A structured blazer at the waist can further define your shape.
