We’ve known for a long time that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. Here at UpperCup, we love celebrating the curvy loveliness of bigger boobed beauties, and it seems at last the fashion world is catching up.

We came across an interesting article in the Irish Independent by Victoria Mary Clarke, who talks about her lifelong battle between wanting to eat what she likes without feeling guilty and wanting to be as thin as a traditional petite sized catwalk model.

Victoria recently discovered that fashion mag editors with their finger on the pulse were increasingly using beautiful, voluptuous, plus size women in their magazines and designers were more and more keen to use plus size models to promote their products – meaning they sell more!

And it seems the demand for plus size models is spreading worldwide. Over in Australia, Gold Coast website reports there’s a shortage of larger ladies to model sexy swimwear.

Kerryn Anker tells of a swimwear designer who had to comb half of Australia to find an agency that can supply plus-size models, despite the fact that women like seeing models they can relate to.

So if you’re looking for a modelling career, perhaps Australia’s the place to start! And even if you’re just looking for some super-sexy plus size swimwear to wear on the beach or at the local pool, we’ve got some gorgeous Panache and Fantasie goodies to choose from.

Latest Ranges Of Fantasie Bras and Freya Underwear

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

Women of Britain gather round and hear the great news! Do you have trouble finding comfortable and attractive bras and lingerie just because your breasts are a bit bigger than that elusive Ms Average? Bet you thought it was because the manufacturers didn’t make what you need to look and feel sexy didn’t you?

Well the good news is that is simply not the case. The garments you need are made, it’s just that most High Street shops don’t bother to keep them.

Essie, founder of UpperCup.com has spent sixteen years taking up the challenge on your behalf. The result is that if you visit http://www.uppercup.com/ now you’ll find a whole world of Fantasie Bras, Panache bras in the sizes you need. Forget traipsing around the shops getting frustrated at what you don’t find. There in your own home, on your computer screen, is a whole range of Freya underwear in sizes you thought they didn’t make.

UpperCup don’t stop there. When Essie started the company to help women like herself, she had more in mind than just sexy underwear. Swimwear presents the same problem but Panache swimwear is now available in the sort of cup sizes you seek.

Now you can look good and feel comfortable at the swimming pool or on the beach. Move over stick insects, the real women have arrived! Panache UK and UpperCup have set you free!

UpperCup is not just any online lingerie shop. When you visit the site one of the first things you’ll notice is that it is dedicated to serving those women who need larger than average cup sizes. They stock nothing below a “D” cup and go right on up to “L”, in sizes from 30” to 56”. How many shops on the High Street have you come across who do the same?

Something else you’ll notice too is that there’s nothing frumpish about the styles on offer. Essie is a large cup lady herself and she knows that you all want to look and feel as glam and sexy as anyone else. Since 2003 she’s made it her business to see that you can.

Plus Size bras from Fantasie, Panache & Freya

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Here is a press release that we posted recently. Bestowing the virtues of shopping at Uppercup, if you happen to run a national newspaper or two, we’d love it if you could publish it ;-)

If Fantasie bras are your favourite brand or if Panache bras are more to your taste and you’re having trouble finding them in your size, that’s probably because you’re not looking in the right place! Forget the High Street shops, UpperCup is where you should be. You’ll find them online at http://www.uppercup.com/ and what a revelation your first visit will be!

UpperCup specialises in bras, swimwear and lingerie in the larger sizes that most shops don’t bother to stock, from D cup upwards. There you can buy Freya underwear and Panache swimwear, all the well known names.

UpperCup came into being due to one woman’s frustration at the difficulty she had in getting comfortable underwear in the large size she needed that looked elegant and sexy. Essie will tell you that she has spent sixteen years battling on your behalf as well as her own and that setting up her own specialised company was the only way to achieve the desired result!

Essie chose the internet as her marketplace so as to reach the number of customers needed to make the business viable, and at the same time provide a lifeline to as many of her fellow full-size women as possible.

The response has been beyond all expectations. UpperCup has proved what many people already realised. That is that it’s the slender sylph like models that all the stores seem to cater for that are the exception. It’s the fuller figure that represents Miss or Mrs Average.

If that’s you then you can relax. Just go to your computer for your Panache UK experience. Visit UpperCup and enjoy choosing from all the Fantasie bras, Freya underwear, Panache swimwear and Panache bras that you’ll find there, all available in sizes from D cup right on to the largest of sizes. You’ll find the prices a pleasant surprise too. They don’t match the cup sizes!

Essie firmly believes that just because you need sizes bigger than what the big stores consider average you shouldn’t be expected to pay an extortionate price to be comfortable and look good.

Why waste any more time? Go and have a look now. There’s no time like the present and it costs nothing to visit http://www.uppercup.com/, not even a car park ticket!
