Brown MaryGiving up bright colors and replacing them with dark colors is not the best way to look slimmer. The right style, well-chosen length, and play with colors will do a much better job of this.
V-neckline
A v-neckline doesn’t just make you look slimmer. It distracts from the hips, makes the shoulders more graceful, elongates the neck and visually corrects the fullness of the face.
Dress with a wrap
The special cut of this dress solves three problems at once: it disguises the tummy, emphasizes the chest and elongates the silhouette. For a casual style, it is recommended to choose models with a simple wrap, and for a more sophisticated one, with a drape.
Sheath dress
A tight fitting dress that highlights the waist and emphasizes the hip line is a true standard of femininity. It does not go well only with an apple-shaped figure. However, it doesn’t matter – a too slight curve in the waist can be easily hidden under a dress with a straight silhouette.
Basque
A wide ruffle that helps to hide the stomach, draw attention to the lush chest, or highlight the waist. To solve the first problem, choose clothes with an asymmetrical basque located at the level of the lower ribs.
Pencil skirt
With the right length, a classic office style can easily be turned into a seduction tool. To do this, it is recommended to choose a skirt whose lower edge will be at the level of the leg taper – above or below the knee. In this case, the style will play to the fullest, not only disguising those extra pounds, but also stretching the silhouette, making it taller.
A-line skirt
Makes you slimmer and stretches, creating an hourglass effect. It’s hard to find a woman who wouldn’t look good in this dress. And it doesn’t matter if the skirt is pleated, gently flared, or rigid trapezoidal.
High waist
It’s hard to think of a better way to hide a problem tummy. And the solution is relevant for both pants and skirts. And playing with the traditional contrast – light top, dark bottom – helps to emphasize its effectiveness.
Print
Abstract drawings completely transform a woman, making her figure look really light. The main thing is not to choose too small patterns – they can create the opposite effect. But with the help of clear drawings, it is easy to draw attention to the right parts of the body or simply stretch the silhouette.
Thin stripes
The unique play of alternating white and contrasting stripes is a smart solution for any body type. They add slimness no matter where they are placed. Whether it’s a blouse, a striped dress or a decorative insert on a skirt, stripes always hide flaws.
Long hems
Jacket, blazer, cardigan, vest, coat or jacket – it doesn’t matter what a woman is wearing, as long as it is long and contrasts with the rest of the clothes. In any case, an unbuttoned outfit will create a vertical stripe in the center of the silhouette, which hides the volume and adds height.
