Your Body, Your Goals

  • Your Body Shape

    • Normally a large bust
    • Average to Broad shoulders
    • Fullness around your middle
    • Less defined waist
    • Narrow hips
    • Good Legs

  • Your Body Shape Goals

    • Elongate your torso, draw attention to your legs and create the illusion of a waist.
    • Opt for structured pieces as they will add definition and hide the extra weight
    • Keep all details above bust line and at or below hem line. All in between should be kept plain and simple
    • Invest in statement necklaces and shoes and avoid shoulder bags.

Trousers

  • Best Trousers

    • Choose styles with a little bit of stretch for comfort and better fit
    • Flat front trousers that fasten to the side or back are good
    • Straight leg or Skinny leg jeans and trousers draw attention to your best feature
    • All colours and pattern bottoms are good

  • Trousers to Avoid

    • High waisted styles just add bulk (Mid rise best)
    • Pleats and gathers just add extra bulk to tummy

Tops

  • Best Tops

    • Learn to use layers to frame the body and elongate your shape
    • Fine flowy fabric will work well
    • Detail around the collar and neck to draw the eye up
    • Empire line or styles that go in under your bust
    • Go for wide or low V-neck tops with embellished neckline
    • Fitted jackets give the effect of a more defined waist. A fitted single button blazer is your best friend.
    • 3/4 or elbow length sleeves will draw the eye away from the tum
    • Wrap blouses can cleverly hide any unwanted bulk
    • Aline coats and cardigans will nip you in at the waist

  • Tops to Avoid

    • Bulky knits are a big No
    • High, polo neck and round neck tops will make bust look bigger
    • Frills and ruffles, however a waterfall top with long draping fabric will slim you through the middle
    • Slouchy jackets and blazers
    • Baggy tops and tunics that won’t give you a waist

Skirts and Dresses

  • Best Skirts and Dresses

    • Go for dresses that emphasise your bust and skim down over your tummy not clinging
    • Empire line hide your tummy
    • Wrap style dresses are great for you and flared maxi dresses
    • Knee or calf length skirt, Aline will be great for you
      Try interesting hemlines
    • Gathered fabric around waist will conceal tummy.

  • Skirts and Dresses to Avoid

    • Avoid bows, belts, embellishment and other waistline details
    • Be careful with clingy jerseys
    • Avoid Body-con dresses
