How to Dress to look slimmer and younger
- A trench coat is the most slimming of styles
- If you are pear-shaped, wearing
shoulder pads can improve your outline
- To counteract wide hips, wear
darker shades from the waist down. Light colored tops are fine.
- Close-fitted tops, tightly belted,
are rarely flattering to a large bust. A V neckline is better than a
round-necked top.
- V necklines make your face and
neck look longer
- Horizontal strips will make you
look wider – vertical lines are better
- Single-breasted garments are far
more slimming than double-breasted ones.
- Double vents at the back of
jackets add width.
- Longish jackets which cover your
hips may suit you better than shorter ones, particularly with trousers.
- Experiment with skirt lengths –
your ideal length for a straight skirt may differ from that for a fuller style.
- Smooth materials are usually more
flattering than fluffy ones, which can seem to add inches to your measurements.
- Shoulders generally look better
padded – but not too wide.
- Don’t wear tight underwear – this
can produce bulges under your clothes.
- Full skirts with a smooth yoke
over the hips are more slimming than those in which the fullness comes from the
waistband
- Avoid clinging jersey fabrics.
- Trousers with straight, long lines
are best – harem styles are not flattering.
- Wear undergarments fits.
- Avoid garments that provide no
support.
- Try body slimming garments.
- Consider nylon stockings with a
“control top” the next time you find yourself in a dress or skirt.
- Buy right size clothes that fit
you properly will flatter you.
- Avoid boxy clothes
- Also avoid clingy clothes
- Stick with loose, flowing fabrics
- Introduce a little black into your
wardrobe. Black has a slimming effect and can look especially
nice on trousers, skirts, and dresses
- Add some
dark wash denim and other rich colors to your style.
- Look for
bold colors and patterns. Bold patterns can distract
the eye and camouflage your outline, causing the observer to notice the item of
clothing instead of your size
- Try
monochromatic color schemes. Large blocks of solid color
draw the eye up and down rather than side to side.
- Stock up on
v-neck tops, V-necks and other vertical necklines draw the eye up and down,
elongating and narrowing your torso.
