Having tried on a little thing you liked, sitting flawlessly on a slender mannequin, and glancing in the mirror, we are sometimes deeply disappointed. At the same time, the mood instantly disappears and the last signs of self-confidence disappear. “Eh, why am I not a model ?!” - we sigh heavily and leave the store with nothing. A familiar situation, isn't it?
Of course, any outfit will look great on an impeccable figure, be it short skirts, long or tight-fitting pants. But this does not mean at all that women whose proportions do not fit into the generally accepted concept of “ideal” should give up and wear whatever they got - not at all! Simply, choosing a wardrobe, you need to know what needs to be emphasized and what to hide. And if you do everything right, believe me, you can look no worse than the model.
First of all, you should pay attention to tailoring clothes. Straight vertical lines visually lengthen the figure and slim. And horizontal, that is, transverse, shorten and expand the silhouette, as if cutting it into separate parts.
Full women should give preference to vertical lines and somewhat elongated models of dresses, skirts, coats. The cut should be straight and slightly snug. Plain jackets or coats with one-piece sleeves and a shawl collar will also help to hide overweight. Deep or narrow cutouts with contrasting fabric inserts will be appropriate.
And now about what, with excessive completeness, you need to refuse. In no case should you wear lush and short or, conversely, too tight-fitting outfits. It is better to avoid belts altogether, replacing them with soft tucks at the waistline. If, in addition to the fullness, the woman is also short, you should give preference to straight, not cut along the waist line dresses and coats.
Indeed, with such a figure, the dress will look much more advantageous than a blouse and a skirt. And certainly you don’t have to think about or a shortened style jacket - such models visually reduce growth, which is extremely undesirable.
But full, but tall women may well use a combination of vertical and horizontal lines in their clothes. Semi-adjacent models, combined from two fabrics that differ in color, are perfect for them.
Wide hips can be hidden under a line of clothing expanding to the bottom. It is acceptable to have flounces or frills on the hem. Pleating is also a good option.
As you can see, not everything is as complicated as it seems at first glance. Do not be afraid to experiment - the only way you will be able to find the right image.
