Avoid
- Tops that stop at the widest part of your hips. That accentuates the imbalance with your shoulders.
- Tight tops with wide trousers.
- Trousers with darts or side pockets that amplify your hips.
- Colours and patterns on the lower body that magnify your hips.
Choose
Forget tight-fitting and oversized outfits. They don’t flatter your strong points! Go for:
▪ Dresses that show off your legs!
▪ Jackets with marked shoulders that fall below your hips to elongate your bust and balance the width of your shoulders and hips.
▪ Trapezoid or flared skirts to mask your hips.
▪ Flared or bootcut trousers that flatter your shape.
Extra tips
Wear scarves and jewellery to draw the eye to the upper body.
Wear heels to give you more length.
