{{examples}}
== [[Advertising]] ==
* The female characters in [[Orangina]] feature both this and [[Sideboob]].
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
 
== Anime and Manga ==
* In ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'', one of Urd's signature dresses features this, her being the seductress of [[The Three Faces of Eve]]. She apparently got her dress sense from her mother, demon queen Hild.
* ''[[Blue Drop]]'': Pretty much all of the Arume uniforms.
Line 52 ⟶ 51:
* Nyuu/Lucy from ''[[Elfen Lied]]'', though her breasts are much smaller in the anime.
* Vorona from ''[[Durarara!!]]'' can't seem to find the energy to zip up her biker suit...
* Kaolinite from ''[[Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon]]'' sports one of these.
* In ''[[Urusei Yatsura]]'', Oyuki usually sports a white Kimono, but for informal events she'll often take it off revealing an orange Absolute Cleavage swimsuit-type outfit.
* Adelheid Suzuki from ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'' has this after activating her Shimon Ring.
Line 67 ⟶ 66:
'''Kirche''': [[Say It with Hearts|Hehehe. <3]] Isn't this gown pretty? (points with a hand, almost groping herself) [[Understatement|The chest area is specially adjusted]].
'''Saito''': ([[Luminescent Blush|blushing profusely]]) Wa- Ah- Ah! [[Most Common Superpower|Very grand]]! }}
* Freya's "at home" outfit in ''[[Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?]]'' is cut so her entire navel is visible. It's also sleeveless and strapless. Since the gods aren't allowed to use their powers when they're in the Lower World, one has to wonder how the outfit stays on.
* Momo Yaoyorozu from ''[[My Hero Academia]]'', though in her case, it is justified. Her Quirk is one where she can create objects from her body, so she needs a good amount of exposed skin to use it.
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* ''[[The DCU]]'': Arisia, Starfire, Donna Troy, and several other characters.
* [[Marvel Universe|Marvel Comics']] [[Classy Cat Burglar|Black Cat]]. After years of poorly defined powers she, like most comic book Heroines/Villainesses, acquired the [[Most Common Superpower]]. Naturally, this renders her [[Spy Catsuit|Cat-Suit]] [[Zip Me Up|unzippable]] above the navel (that is, when she's drawn by Terry Dodson). When Tommy Ohtsuka drew her in the Marvel Mangaverse, the zipper (if there even was one) rests eight centimeters ''below'' the belly button.
Line 86 ⟶ 87:
* Olga Lawina in the Dutch comic book''[[Agent 327]]''.
 
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* ''[[My Immortal]]'': Ebony wears dresses like this.
 
== Films -- Live-Action[[Film]] ==
* ''[[Arachnophobia]]'' - there is a shower scene where a well-endowed heroine is entirely oblivious of the sinister lethal spiders making their way into the house. One prolonged scene shows nothing but her cleavage in the shower - ''the whole movie screen'' shows nothing but the Absolute Cleavage between her breasts, (but without even a hint of nipple - on a cinema screen this must have been truly absolute). The result is one enormous canyon for a particularly adventurous spider to navigate...
* ''[[Casino Royale]]'': Vesper Lynd wears such a dress, which ends up ruined when she [[Shower of Angst|takes a shower]] fully clothed after a fight scene. Bond states earlier that the point of the outfit is [[Show Some Leg|to distract the other players]].
Line 99 ⟶ 100:
* ''[[Down Periscope]]'': "Lt. Lake, you're ''almost'' out of uniform!"
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* YT from ''[[Snow Crash]]'' wears a zipper-front jumpsuit, and unzips it further than modesty would have suggested to discomfit a (slightly) [[Dirty Cop]] who's not sure if he's up for some [[Prison Rape]] or not.
{{quote|'''YT:''' Make up your fucking mind.}}
* ''[[Conan the Barbarian]]'': The attire of Bêlit, the she-pirate in one of the most classic tales by Robert E. Howard, ''[[Queen of the Black Coast]]'', is described as being only a "broad silken girdle", i.e. she is a rare case of a female [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]. This was obviously not carried over to the comics adaptations by Roy Thomas and John Buscema for Marvel comics, where she wears something similar to the description of this trope. Whereas in the Finnish comic adaptation by Petri Hiltunen, her attire is faithful to Howard's text.
 
== [[Live-Action TV]] ==
* Commandant Mele-on-Grayza in ''[[Farscape]]''. There was a reason Crichton nicknamed her "Commandant Cleavage" after all.
* Supreme Commander Servalan of ''[[Blake's 7]]''.
* Grace from ''[[Will and Grace]]'' has an outfit or two like this. Except her lack of, er, endowments come up.
Line 121 ⟶ 122:
* Margaery Tyrell in ''[[Game of Thrones]]'' on her first appearance in Renly's encampment wears a dress which leaves very little of her cleavage to the imagination.
* Serena "[[Ms. Fanservice]]" van der Woodsen airs said cleavage rather a lot on ''[[Gossip Girl]]''.
* Morticia's dress in some adaptations of ''[[The Addams Family]]''.
 
== [[Music]] ==
* Quite a few female musicians favor this outfit. [[Kylie Minogue]] is a clear example with her massive cleavage in the "Can't Get You out of My Head" video. Other examples include [[Britney Spears]]' Elvis suit and [[Lindsay Lohan]]'s loose dress.
* The white one-piece [[Britney Spears]] is wearing in the video for "3".
* [[Celine Dion]] (yes, Celine Dion) wears a futuristic outfit that features this in the music video for "Then You Look At Me", the [[Award Bait Song]] from ''[[Bicentennial Man]]''.
Line 131 ⟶ 133:
* The dress worn by the "beauty" in the ''[[Beauty and The Beast]]''-inspired video for [[Meat Loaf]]'s "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)" is a full-length dress which is gaped open in the front and just barely held in place with lacing, to give it this effect.
 
== Newspaper[[Professional ComicsWrestling]] ==
* Morticia in ''[[The Addams Family]]'' [[Newspaper Comics]]. Adaptations tend to raise her neckline.
 
== Professional Wrestling ==
* This is played very frequently in WWE and TNA.
** Of all people, [[Stephanie McMahon]] did this as frequently as any other WWE Diva.
** [[Lita]], after she hooked up with [[Edge]], started wearing this sort of tops. Even her "wedding dress" was made this way.
 
== [[Theatre]] ==
* ''[[Elisabeth]]'': Frau Wolf, the brothel madam, in the Essen and Stuttgart productions wears the lacy-bra variant with an otherwise Victorian dress.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'': Sniper Wolf was dressed this way. ([[Lampshaded]] and [[Justified]] in ''[[The Last Days of Foxhound]]''. It turns out that her then reasonable jumpsuit shrunk in the wash (which may or may not have been done on purpose by Decoy Octopus). She was pissed because they were at Shadow Moses and she was freezing with it on. Later, there was The Boss during the final battle in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'' and EVA during almost the entire game. Though in the case of The Boss, her open suit wasn't meant to emphasize her cleavage, but rather {{spoiler|to show off the scar she got from when she performed a C-section on herself to deliver her child (who was Ocelot) in order to demonstrate her devotion to her country (since she had to give that child up).}} Also, Naomi and Big Mama in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]'' (though since Big Mama was {{spoiler|EVA, to the surprise of some}}, this somewhat makes sense).
* ''[[Dragon Age]]'': [[Black Magician Girl|Morrigan's]] outfit, consisting of an oddly patched-together skirt and a wide scarf draped over her shoulders.
Line 176 ⟶ 175:
* Azura's statue in [[Skyrim]] has this. Which is a bit odd, considering the two [[The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind|previous]] [[Oblivion|games]] followed her appearance in ''[[The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall|Daggerfall]]'' and had her statues show her topless, and her actual appearances in Morrowind had her dressed more modestly. Nocturnal wears a robe that shows off her cleavage, split down to her waist.
* [[Lost Odyssey]]'s Ming has a leather corset-thing under a cropped top that features a wide expanse of her cleavage almost down to her navel. How her cleavage doesn't pop right out is a mystery. We even get a cutscene that could be an excuse for a closer look.
* Players have many ways of achieving this look in ''[[City of Heroes]]''.
* Rainbow Mika from ''[[Street Fighter]]'', mostly in ''[[Street Fighter V]]''. Her costume seems to have been designed with the intent to emphasize her ample bosom, but hey, she ''is'' a pro wrestling diva.
* Moxxi from ''[[Borderlands]]''; she has many different outfits, but all of them emphasize this feature and the small heart tattoo on her left breast, given her reputation as an [[Attention Whore]] and [[The Vamp]].
* From ''[[Dragon's Crown]]'' while Amazon is the one with the skimpy [[Chainmail Bikini]], the [[Hot Witch|Sorceress]] is the one who looks like she's one nudge away from a [[Wardrobe Malfunction]] due to her outfit's emphasis on her - admittedly well endowed - bosom.
* [[Hot Amazon]] Akane Owari from ''[[Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair]]''; seemed she just couldn't find a shirt large enough to fully conceal it.
* Several of the female champions in ''[[Raid: Shadow Legends]]'', but Elhain - as she is a starter and the focus of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuRfR36W-cM one of the machinima episodes] - stands out.
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* ''[[Looking for Group]]'': Benny sports this sort of outfit all the time. How does she keeps it from slipping? [[A Wizard Did It]]. Probably Benny.
* ''[[Erfworld]]'': Resident [[Ms. Fanservice]] Wanda once showed up wearing this. {{spoiler|She's wearing the outfit from Thriller, and didn't zip it up all the way.}} Later, her evil sorceress outfit qualified too.
Line 187 ⟶ 189:
* In ''[[The KAMics]]'' when Gertrude & Brunhilda got some "space suits", Gertrude's outfit demonstrated this trope.
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
 
== Web Original ==
* Obligatory ''[[Gaia Online]]'' example in Sam's old outfit, a set of coveralls unzipped in the front to show her bra. Handwaved as "They didn't have any in my size."
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
 
== Western Animation ==
* Vixen wears this kind of outfit as her superhero uniform (true to her comic book origins, as mentioned above) in ''[[Justice League Unlimited]].''
* Dr. Mrs. The Monarch in season 3 of ''[[The Venture Brothers]]''; also Molotov Cocktease.
* [[Fan Disservice|Ma Skinner]] wore Lopez's outfit in ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' roast episode. When asked by the host whats keeping that dress on, Sideshow Mel answers in her stead.
{{quote|'''Sideshow Mel:''' ''"The collective will of every man in this room!"''}}
* Miss Bellum from ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]'' was supposed to be dressed this way... until [[Cartoon Network]] complained and she had to be re-designed.
