athan and Jorie Rothschild, the head tailors of the Blossoming Bodies store in Omaha, found their services in high demand one particular afternoon in early May. The advertising campaign had kicked into high gear, filling data channels and old-fashioned billboards alike. Gauging by the number of giggling teenage girls in the store, the campaign was certainly effective.

        Jorie watched a particularly talkative group of girls as they examined and compared clothing on the display racks. Apart from bust size, the Angelican woman was reminded of her own teen years back in school. Having been born and raised on Angelica, Jorie was taught that a considerable bosom was a socially accepted form of expression, primarily for the virtues of health and vitality. Though she agreed with that viewpoint, Jorie wanted a watermelon bust primarily to gain and to keep the attention of just one man - Nathan, her husband.
        The big woman giggled. Nathan was also Angelican by birth and nurture. Angelican men were noted for their willingness to engage in harsh work so that their women were made comfortable. When Nathan caught Jorie's eye ten years ago, she felt it was her duty to marry him. Since Angelican society allowed women to initiate the dating ritual, Jorie set upon her task with gusto, wearing blouses and halter tops that advertised her newly-acquired bust quite well. Jorie felt a little guilty by the way she flaunted her considerable charms in front of Nathan, but she considered it necessary. Nathan was the kind of man who naturally attracted women to himself. By being a bit more aggressive on her part, Jorie won Nathan's affections and got married in short order.
        Nathan had seen his fair share of harsh work, being employed as an orbital and lunar construction worker for a shipping company. However, once his son Daniel was born, Nathan wanted a job that would allow him more of a normal family life. He decided to take up his wife's tailoring trade. Pleasantly surprised to find that he truly had the skill for the work, Nathan became an apprentice at the same tailoring shop where his wife worked. After nine years of plying their craft, the Rothschilds became quite proficient. Then the Conyers Corporation went looking for tailors to work for their Blossoming Bodies stores on Terra. The Rothschilds saw it as their chance not only to make more money, but to show people the benefits of the Angelican lifestyle.
        The sound of tittering nearby brought Jorie out of her wool-gathering. She smiled pleasantly at a giggling gaggle of four girls, walking toward them to see if they needed assistance. "Hello. Is there anything in particular you're looking for?"
        It was understandable that the girls were, at first, a bit surprised by Jorie's appearance. The woman's bust measurement was identical with her height: one hundred seventy-one centimeters. The girls quickly remembered why they were in the tailor shop portion of the Blossoming Bodies store in the first place. One of the girls, a petite brunette, actually had to take a step back to have a better view of Jorie's face. "Actually, Ma'am, my friends and I are wondering about the styles of swimsuits you have in stock. We're looking for suits that will enhance and complement our forthcoming buxomness."
        "Ah," said Jorie approvingly. "You had your nanite injections?"
        The brunette blushed. "Just ten minutes ago. Why, I swear I feel a bit bigger this very moment." The brunette and her friends shared a giggle. "I've sent my nanites a wetware command. I'm growing at a rate of 10 centimeters per day. I'll reach my 32G brasize just in time for the weekend. My friends here will be similarly endowed as well. Can you help us in our decision on which kinds of swimsuits to buy?"
        "I most certainly can. Please follow me. I'll show you the styles on a tri-dee projector." Jorie had the girls gather around a projector in another part of the store. After providing her account information, the brunette was treated to a 3-D image of herself. The image was shown clad in a standard one-piece swimsuit. Then, with a subtitle 'ware command, Jorie had the holographic model sprout the bustline that the brunette would have in two days time.
        "Nice bulge effect," said the petite girl as she inspected the life-sized hologram. "However, I didn't get breasts just so I could cover them up. Let's see something more . . . aggressive."
        Jorie smiled as she sent another 'ware command. This time the hologram was clad in a classic bikini. Red in color, the bikini lent the hologram's cantaloupe-sized breasts a heaping spoonful of sex appeal. Jorie had the hologram jump up and down, wobbling and jiggling its body parts. That action made the watching girls giggle with glee.
        "I sure look sexy in that get-up," said the brunette. She stared at her light-composed duplicate in the eye, then walked around it. A bit shy, the girl then looked at Jorie. "Umm . . . can you make the hologram wear a . . . skimpier suit?"
        "Absolutely. Let's go with strings first." Jorie changed the hologram's standard bikini straps to string that could have found service on an old-fashioned sneaker.
        The brunette hummed. "An improvement. But I want something more risque." She looked downright mischievous. "You know, something that will cause high blood pressure in parents."
        "How about this?" In a flash, Jorie's 'ware command made the hologram switch its string bikini bottom to a thong.
        "Goodness of God!" The girl was pleased with what she saw. "Why hasn't anyone told me my bottom was this cute?"
        One of the brunette's friends, a wheat-colored blonde, pretended to pinch the 3-D image on its light-composed bottom. "Rysa, you've worn those big skirts for so long that I was beginning to think you had no butt at all."
        "In stark contrast to you, Kelly, I do have a butt. Your nanites will add just as much fat to your flat bottom as to your chest."
        "Since I'm bigger than you, my bottom will be all that much larger," replied Kelly, fending off Rysa's rueful glare.
        Jorie gained Rysa's attention. "Miss, there's an even more risque suit in inventory if you care to view it. I don't know if you'll be able to wear it at a public swimming pool, but I'm sure it'll be a hit at a private pool party."
        Rysa moved some of her dark hair off of her shoulder. "That was my intention all along. Practically the only swimsuits you can wear at a public pool are those one-piece 'birth control' suits. I want the same suits the girls on Outback and New Sardinia wear at the beach."
        Now it was Jorie's turn to giggle. "Let it be known that the term 'suit' will be applied quite liberally to what I'm about to show you."
        The hologram was changed to reflect Jorie's latest order. The 3-D representation of Rysa now sported a string thong bottom and two triangle pasties in lieu of a bikini top.
        Rysa emitted one of those high-pitched squeals that only girls could produce when seeing something they really like. "Oh, it's just the thing I've been looking for!" She gestured at her friends to have a closer look at the hologram. "If I was in that suit, I would appear to be naked from the side and rear!"
        "Yeah, I'd say so," announced Kelly. "No way in the world you can wear =that at a public pool."
        "This suit I'm about to buy will be for private audiences only." Rysa smiled eagerly at Jorie. "I'll take one each in lipstick red and jet black, plus one 'birth control' suit in canary yellow."
        Jorie happily entered the data on the filepad she was carrying. Then she looked at the other three girls. "Okay. Who's next?"
        Kelly raised her hand. "That'll be me. I was wondering if you had any of those ribbon suits?"
        "Ribbon suits? Oh, yes, I do have them in stock. Just like the minimal suit your friend here has chosen, a ribbon suit leaves practically nothing for the imagination. Umm . . . just how big are you planning to be while wearing the suit?"
        Kelly grinned. "I'm going to be a 36J in time for the weekend."
        "Well, in that case, you'll need body paste to keep the ribbons from slipping off your breasts, particularly the nipples."
        "I see your point. The ribbons will be just wide enough to cover my nipples." A naughty grin crept across Kelly's face. "It just won't do if I keep popping out of my suit and exposing my nipples each time I breathe. I would rather bust blouse buttons - that's much more sexy."
        Jorie had the tri-dee projector bring up Kelly's physical specifications. "Okay. Now the choice boils down to suit color. Do you prefer bright or dark colors?"
