Does anybody here experience with Divine Collection Hera breast forms, in size 4?
I’ve decided I want to have secret boobs. I want to experience two scenarios (note: I’m an underdresser):
- Secret, only known to me, everyday breasts.
- Subtle semi-noticeable breasts that can give me the feeling of having breasts.
For the first scenario is easy: I ordered a pair of Venus Breast enhancers.
The second scenario has me uncertain. I’m drawn to the Hera breast forms because of their realism, jiggle, and weight. I want to get as close to the sensation of having breasts as possible. In this scenario, I would (1) wear the forms around the house a lot, (2) occasionally go out in public in really baggy men’s clothes and have subtle, slightly noticeable breasts (desired effect: “Hmmmm…is he, or isn’t he…?), and so I could enjoy the feeling of having breasts, and (3)—rarely—go out in public in non-baggy men’s clothes, in a place where no one knows me, and just sort of be a weird guy with boobies.
The uncertainty is the size of the Hera forms. The woman at the Breast Form Store says size 4 (smallest) would give a bust measurement of at least 40 inches on my 36 inch man-bust (34” underbust). I packed out a flexible bra to measure 40” on me, and wow! The size calculator on the BFS website says this size is “demure” on me, but it doesn’t look “demure” to me. And when I see pictures on the website of topless girls wearing the larger size 6, it seems to me that the size 4 should be smaller than the look I see with my stuffed bra. I wish I knew just how much thickness a size 4 adds at the nipple, so I could better judge the possible effect.
Does anybody here have Size 4 Heras that could shed some light on light on the subject?
FYI: Apparently there will be size 2 and 3 Heras coming in the future, as well as sizes bigger than their current largest sizes…Maybe next summer…Maybe.
(3)—rarely—go out in public in non-baggy men’s clothes, in a place where no one knows me, and just sort of be a weird guy with boobies.
This described what I do. You get noticed. The next question is what are you going to do about that?
The model number you mentioned means nothing to me. I go by gram weights and shapes. Going from a 36" to a 40" chest is, to me, a huge jump!
I have a 38" band size and use 150g to 300g forms of different shapes. With modern formed bras, even the smallest form weights will make noticeable bumps on your chest. You have to decide what topography on your chest that you need, to achieve what profile you need.
You don't need to over-complicate this.
Buy a variety of inexpensive forms with different weights and shapes, then experiment. Once you think that you have figured things out, then buy a good set of forms.
Edit: don't forget that you will need different sized bras, too, to accomodate the different sized forms, so that the bras sit properly and that they keep the forms in control.
@harriette Thanks for your helpful suggestions! I may indeed be overthinking this.
You said you go out as a man with breasts, and that “you get noticed.” I’m curious, how do people react? Do they say things to your face, or do they just look and stare and whisper comments to whomever they are with? If people just look and comment to their companions. I’m fine with that. And in a way, I want to just have fun and shake people up. I don’t want to get into verbal confrontations.
@gienne Those are all very relevant concerns.
To sum up how I dress, I am subtle, sometimes more than others, but I only choose women's clothes 24/7. I apply techniques of a magician - illusion and obfuscation. I call my style androgynous because people have to look closely. "What did I just see?" And by the time that they turn their heads for a second look, I am gone.
Nobody has ever said anything to me, at any time since I started crossdressing, except my wife. In some ways, I wish that they had.
In a busy mall, you will be nearly invisible (forest and trees something, something). Up close in public transit, with clerks and in restaurants, depends on the individuals. Everything from a top to bottom anatomy exams, to a schoolgirl seeing my pointed shoes and looking up at my face.
If you don't try, you won't learn, though. Experiment and find out what your limits really are, find out what you can / cannot get away with around other people. If they won't stop staring, ramp it down a notch.🎉
@gienne You didn't mention the style of Hera but i have the Ultimate as well as the Aphrodite, both in size 4, with the standard nipple.
For what its worth I'm 5'9 and weigh 155 lb. I wear a 36C bra and the size 4 fits perfect. I don't think y'oull be able to hide them very well, even in a baggy shirt. The Aphrodite with some added adhesive will stay on without a Bra for a day or so. Something about the Ultimate that the adhesive just doesn't hold as well. So i have to wear a bra. Both claim to have self adhering surface but it wont keep them on without a Bra. Any bigger size i would certainly expect a bra would be needed, as the weight will pull them away from your body. The self adhesion will mostly just keep them from slipping round on your chest as your body moves around. I do like them both. The Ultimate for its feel and and look. The Aphrodite for its ability to hold an adhesive better for swim suits and nightgowns.
Hope this helps. Wright if you need anything more.
@gienne I don't have any experience with these forms but if you just want to try out sizes you can achieve that with a padded bra & a bra size calculator (there are plenty of them online). I have a few sports bras & can vary my bust size to suit by using the padding from 1 or all of them depending on how I feel or where I'm going. In my experience even a single layer of padding is pretty noticeable though but that's because I have a fair bit "up top" naturally, however, isn't that what we want anyway? You won't get the jiggle factor going this route but it will give you a good idea of what different sizes will look like. Rather than measuring chest size you would be better off aiming for cup size, using the aforementioned calculator. That will give you a much better idea of how, as you put it, "demure" they will look. For reference, the measurements you put up make you a D cup. For stealth that's going to be tricky. Try aiming for a B to start, which is what I tend towards when out & about & see how that works out. Hope this helps.

Size matters...not just in form size, but your size. A big breast form on a big chest looks way different then the same form on a small chest. Think sister sizing in bras. As 38B is the same as a 36C, but look different because the 36C boobs look big on a small person and 38B just look average or even small on a big person.
I have two sets of forms. One fills a 36 B and is subtle, the other fills myn38C bras and is not subtle, but fun to wear in public for the reasons you mention. To be honest, many of us wearing bras and forms under loose shirts just look like we have man boobs and are just a bit chubby, so go ahead and get something a little bit larger then you think you need.
