Question:

Flattering clothes styles? Size 14/16 - hippy, pear shape?

I am looking for an outfit that will flatter my shape as I always seem to choose the wrong styles.

I am very conscious of my big hips/thighs/stomach region, so tend to stray away from anything too fitted, and often wear clothes which I think will disguise these areas - e.g. smock tops/wide leg jeans. However, after seeing a few photos of me recently, I now think that they make me look 10 times bigger.

Does anyone have any idea of styles that might suit me a little better and flatter my figure?

Also, I have a reasonable sized bust, and recently wore a top that covers this region and ties round the neck - again, this did not look very flattering, so probably halter neck/scoop necks might suit a little better in this sense.

Please include pics if you are trying to describe something even the slightest bit complicated.

Thanks in advance.

  3. "Empire Waist" blouses flatter your bust and keep your hips looking slim and subtle

    This is an easy look to find and comes in many colors, patterns, and sizes!

    Another good style are "Babydoll Tops" these are similar to "Empire Waist blouses" but more feminine

    Oncce again, these are easy to find and very flattering for your figure type.


  4. Hi there smock tops will make u look massive, try wearing fitted tops or shirts with jeans as this gives a slimming effect the cut on ur jeans should be boot cut dont go for flares as this will make ur legs look like tree trunks try and wear a shoe with a small heel or high heel to make u look taller and slimmer and lastly get a fake tan always a great way to make u look slimmer good luck!
