WHEN Hong Kong actress Tavia Yeung was going through puberty, she deliberately wore sports bras that hid her growing bosom as she was afraid men would gawk at her chest.
The TVB star, who turned 32 on Tuesday, has outgrown the self-consciousness, but admitted she is still conservative.
Yeung was in town over the weekend as the ambassador for lingerie brand Sorella's range of B-Lifted undergarments.
Ironically, instead of showing off the boosting effects of the bra, she kept her assets covered up in a one-piece button-down beige dress during her appearance at Nex shopping mall on Saturday afternoon.
"It isn't my intention to let everyone see my cleavage. When you wear a good bra, it shows from the outside. You'll look confident," Yeung told The New Paper.
Judging by the catalogue photographs that show her wearing the Sorella bras with low-cut V-neck tops, she is not selling herself as a sexpot with an overflowing bosom.
Yeung, who prefers to sleep in roomy cotton homewear rather than slinky lingerie, said she wanted to look not sexy but confident and healthy in theadvertisements.
She added: "I can't be too conservative in the ads and ask to wear clothes to cover up. I have to show the public how good the bra is, so I've satisfied you by revealing a little."
