It doesn’t matter your size anymore, today’s fashions make it easy for us to look more slender than we really are or taller than we really are. With small changes to the way you dress, you too can play this game.
But first you need to understand your body type as to whether you are hourglass or pretty much straight from the shoulders down. We all know out pluses and minuses so it just takes practice to emphasize our body in the right way. Those who are heavier on the top choose fabrics that cling like cotton jersey which won’t add any bulk and go with one color as a way to elongate all the way to your shoes and go for jacket with no shoulder pads that are longer that usual.
A skirt with pleats will draw the eyes down to it and not your top half and the shorter hem is OK, if you are brave enough. Knowing your body shape is a big part of dressing to cover those parts that you don’t like. We all have them, there are very few bodies that are perfect.
