Your Body, Your Goals

  • Your Body Shape

    • Narrow shoulders with a smaller bust
    • Well defined waist
    • Lower body wider than your upper body
    • Full hips and thighs
    • Rounded bottom
    • In Some Cases Good Legs

  • Your Body Shape Goals

    • Enhance your waist line and arms. Add volume to your shoulders and upper body for a balanced silhouette
    • Stay away from clothes that draw attention to the hips and thighs
    • Always wear something darker and slimming on the bottom.
    • Make sure the bottom colour is a solid colour.

Trousers

  • Best Trousers

    • Choose trousers and jeans that are straight leg bootcut, wide leg or flared
    • Stick to dark colours with clean lines and avoid pattern
    • High waisted trousers and jeans will great on you
    • Flat fronted wide leg trousers that fasten on the side.

  • Trousers to Avoid

    • Super skinny jeans but if you love them wear longer tops / blazer
    • Jersey pants that cling to the body
      Any pattern, embellishment or embroidery, as it will only draw attention to the hips.

Tops

  • Best Tops

    • You can layer your tops, try wearing a blazer over a t-shirt in order to proportion the upper part with the larger lower part
    • Peplum tops are great for you, making the hits look narrower
    • Tops with sleeves, especially reinforced and cap ones, adding volume to shoulders, which balances out hips
    • Bright colours, bold prints and embellishment to draw the attention on the upper part of the body
    • Boat, cowl, ruffle and wide V or U necklines
    • Cap and ruched sleeves will balance out shoulders.
    • Shrugs and gilets for layering

  • Tops to Avoid

    • Baggy tops and tunics
    • Avoid tops and jackets which stop on the hips as they will draw attention to the widest part of the body
    • Oversize tops that hide your small waist
    • Slouchy jackets and blazers

Skirts and Dresses

  • Best Skirts and Dresses

    • You want the eye to skim over your bottom half and not attract attention there. You look great in A-line and flared skirts will skin hips and thighs
    • For a dress, choose a cut that is tight at your waist and then flows down over the hips concealing their width
    • Go for full flowing a-line skirts
    • Knee length wrap dress with an a-line skirt is beautiful for you. Add sparkle around your neck to draw the eye up.
    • High waisted skirts to highlight your small waist but always in dark colours.

  • Skirts and Dresses to Avoid

    • Very tight fitted skirts, Fishtail and body-con dresses
    • Horizontal line prints and bold patterns will just add volume to the hips
    • Dress sleeved that finish next to the bust
