Back fat be gone!

A little back bulge is inevitable in life, but the important thing to remember is that the rolls are not your fault -- they're your bra's. So if you want to get rid of the lumpy back look, you could do hundreds of push-ups (unlikely to work in the first place) or you could get a bra that doesn't turn you into a stuffed sausage.

Sassybax bras are the perfect solution for creating smooth lines. Slimming your back and torso like control-top pantyhose slim your booty, the Sassybax bra lets your clothes do their thing without the distraction of a strap lump. The bra comes in under wire, strapless, a torso-slimming camisole and a wireless bralette. They aren't cheap, but they certainly are worth it.

Read on to find out more about body-slimming support.

This looks like an unlined bra. Any product with lining so I can wear this in a cold office setting? Also, why would they choose skinny models in a frontal position for their website photos if this product is designed for back fat elimination?

isn't it interesting that the model shown has no back fat?

I bought one of these and they are great for the backside but they are also flatten your breasts. They need to be made so that the material that covers the breast does not press them down. The material needs to be much lighter than the rest of the bra.

I WOULD BE HAPPY TO FIND A BRA THAT DOESN"T BROADCAST THE "GIRLS" ARE COLD !!!! I AM SURE MOST WOMEN ARE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR FRONT.

The picture looks like it has been staged with the second photo showing a smoothed out blouse.

You know, your right I'd like to see a C-xl or a D-xl with a little back fat before I'd spend 75.00$ on a bra. There crazy. I'll keep my back fat thanks.

The idea is good. Don't know about converting to a "long line" bra as my mother used to wear with her girdle in her working days. It must have good support also for us well endowed girls as that is part of the problem for one of those "rolls" also.

Face it girls.....if you have back fat, then it means you ARE fat... Spend your hard earned $$$ on a good sensible diet and workout while talking on your cell phones instead of trying to hide unsightly back fat...

Everytime it is "bra-buying" time I go into the jitters. I am a 42B and there are simply no bra makers who cater to large backed/small busted women. It is amazing that in our society that this piece of clothing isn't designed better and made to flatter our bodies instead of bunching up the back fat. Would love to try this design on before purchasing.
Bet there are no 42B sizes.

To comment #6 by Sonny - not all people with "back fat" are fat. I've seen plenty of thin/skinny ladies out there with the problem - go to any local high school, gym, beach, mall, airport, etc.

what about cardio for losing the back fat. also ,since when do push-ups do anything for back fat. they are neither cardio nor do they build muscle in your back.... obviously the model has too much boddy fat. she just carries it well.

kate cosey : I am in the same spot you are in when I go out to buy new bras. Large lady, small bust. And if that bra came in a size to fit me, I would love to at least try one on. The design for a bra is archaic, I have yet to find one that is truely comfortable and this one looks like a step in the right direction as far as comfort goes!

I heard about these, thought they sounded great and bought not one, but two! Hate to say it, but I would've been better off wearing something with SUPPORT! I wore one on a rushed morning, and ended up looking like Snuffy Smith's wife on a bad day by nightfall. If they had some support, they'd be great, but no dice. The reason they eliminate back fat is because if you're small enough to wear them, you don't have any significant back fat. I'm very disappointed in my purchase.

kate cosey : I agree with you about finding a bra that fits, I am also a larger lady with a small bust and like you a 42B. This bra looks promising as far as comfort goes and I would love to at least try one on IF it comes in my size. And I will pay for comfort!

Kate,
there are places that custom make bras. Look in your yellow pages. If the cost scares you, there are many women who make their own. (I am not one of those...yet) Check this site. Even if this isn't an option for you, there is lots of useful information! http://www.bra-makers.blogspot.com/
