Women with large busts often wonder how they can perfectly stage their breasts without making them the center of attention. If you too have big boobs, here are the best tips:

• In general, it is important that you pack your décolleté (cleavage) nicely. Avoid deep V-necks and make sure your waist is accentuated.

Who doesn’t love new pants? Even if the joy of a perfectly fitting pair of trousers is often great, the road to this find can be long and tiresome. We’ll tell you how curvy women can save themselves some annoying trying-on sessions in the changing room in the future. Our four simple tips are guaranteed to make your next shopping trip easier.

Is there anything more annoying than looking for a pair of pants that fit well? Some people despair when trying on pants in the changing room – the bottoms are too tight, don’t cover the buttocks or just don’t fit properly.

However, the tiresome search for the perfect pants can be made a lot easier if you know what to look for when making your selection. There are better and worse suitable pant cuts for every type of figure – these four tips will help curvy women to choose the perfect pant. When buying your next pair of pants, you shouldn’t forget one thing above all: The most important thing is that you feel comfortable in the trousers.

1. The right cut

Luckily, current trends offer us a variety of trouser styles, and the constricting skinny jean can get stuck in the store. Flared pants like flared jeans flatter curvy women and elongate each leg. The culotte and palazzo trousers are models that are popular with every woman and work great with a few curves.

But you can not only make the right choice with the leg cut of the trousers, but also with the height of the waistband: for women with curves, bottoms with a high-waist waistband are particularly suitable. Your curves are thus staged, but the stomach is concealed. Another advantage: A high waistband also stretches your legs – that can never hurt.

2. The material

In addition to the cut of the trousers, the fabric is also an important factor when buying trousers. A pair of jeans with a high percentage of stretch might not do you any favors, as they apply quickly and show every little curve. Solid fabrics such as denim or cotton, on the other hand, are great and can give you a good feeling in your new favorite piece.

3. The size

There is one rule on this point: the size of your trousers says nothing about you. No one can be defined by a number, so when buying a new pair of pants, the most important thing should be that they fit well. If you notice in the changing room that the pants are too tight or pinch in a few places – leave them in the store or try on a larger size.

If the trousers fit well, but are too wide in some places, such as the waistband, you can have them adjusted. A few moves shouldn’t stand between you and your perfect pants.

4. The material

In addition to the cut of the trousers, the fabric is also an important factor when buying trousers. A pair of jeans with a high percentage of stretch might not do you any favors, as they apply quickly and show every little curve. Solid fabrics such as denim or cotton, on the other hand, are great and can give you a good feeling in your new favorite piece.

Every woman has her weak spot But with the right top, these are hardly noticeable anymore. Read here how you can conceal your problem areas.

Don’t worry about the small tummy or the strong arms. By choosing the right top, you can get rid of these problems very easily and in no time at all.

How to hide your belly

Longer tops such as long shirts or tunics are perfect for hiding the tummy. A-line dresses or wrap dresses also work wonders. Avoid shiny fabrics. On the other hand, anything that stretches to hide your stomach is good: a V-neckline, zips or vertical stripes, long necklaces or scarves.

How to conceal wide shoulders

Avoid oversized tops! Instead, go for tops with precise cuts that fit well. A V-neckline visually “divides” the upper body and makes even broad shoulders appear narrower. Long chains also have this effect, as do collared blouses. Go for soft, flowing fabrics if you want to hide broad shoulders. Insider tip: One-shoulder tops visually interrupt the shoulder line very well. Here you shop these products!

How to conceal big breasts

Big breasts definitely need a well-fitting bra with wide straps. A V-neck stretches, dark colors hide the problem area well. Turtleneck sweaters or small cutouts, on the other hand, tend to emphasize the breasts. If you want to take your mind off your chest for a business appointment, wear a dark V-neck blouse or top and let a shawl or scarf drape loosely over your bust.

Conceal small breasts

On the other hand, tops with flounces or ruffles at chest height can cheat a bit. In principle, everything that looks like more works: waterfall shirts or tops with appliqués , bows or embroidery are good for making the breasts appear larger. Colorfully patterned shirts distract from the (supposedly) too small breasts.

Conceal thick upper arms

You can hide strong upper arms particularly well with tops that have lace sleeves or flounced sleeves. These should reach about the elbow. Off-the-shoulder tops with flounced sleeves are also great to hide your problem area. The fabric falls perfectly over the upper arms. On the other hand, you should better keep your hands off halter tops.

Conceal thick legs

Yes, even if your legs are a little bigger, you should make sure you choose the right top. While dark pants hide your legs, a cleverly chosen top draws attention to your assets, such as your décolleté. But the color of the upper part is allowed to catch the eye. Eye-catching patterns, ruffles or asymmetrical cuts also distract from the legs. If you conjure up a little “more” “on top” with shoulder pads, ruffles or scarves, your legs will automatically appear narrower in proportion.

In general, everything that is dark appears narrower and is less noticeable. Anything long stretches. Bright colors, flounces or ruffles, on the other hand, attract attention. Therefore, if you want to conceal your problem area, dress in dark colors, with long chains, vertical stripes or V-necks that visually stretch. To do this, emphasize the advantages with more eye-catching colors or cuts in such a way that they automatically attract the viewer’s gaze.

We’ll tell you how you can skillfully conceal your little love handles on your belly and how you can look slimmer.

The cozy festive days are over and have left their mark: small rolls of fat on the stomach are becoming visible and hip gold is spreading. We’ll show you how you can still start the new year with a breathtaking style – because there are wonderful ways to cleverly hide the new pounds.

1st tip: wear a high waist

High waist is not only very popular, but also has an incredible stomach-loss effect. Pounds on the hips and buttocks are skilfully played around and the waist, as the narrowest point, is given the desired full attention. And your taut contours are shown to their best advantage.

2nd tip: Pay attention to the right dress cut

A-line dresses flatter the figure to perfection: Small problem areas around the stomach and hips are simply magically disappeared.

If you want to cover your stomach twice, you can use cleverly placed ruffles, ruffles or wrap effects and the pounds will be cleverly hidden.

3. Tip: Combine long tops

Shirts, blouses and tunics should reach at least the buttocks so that the end of the hem is automatically visible. It is ideal if the top and bottom are the same color or at least come from the same color family. Then the gaze is subtly diverted away from the middle of the body. You can underline the diversionary maneuver with eye-catching accessories such as large-link chains in gold or silver, as well as colorful glass beads.

4th tip: style a layered look

Layering is in! With the layered look, the pounds are cleverly hidden. And the style is also cozy and warm. If you want it to be very simple, you can buy so-called 2-in-1 sweaters or shirts with a softly falling blouse insert. There is no faster and easier way to look slimmer! In winter, wool coats are also suitable for the layered look.

Tip 5: Use vertical lines

Stripes make you look slimmer – especially vertical stripes. At the same time, your upper body is optically stretched. Striking, long statement necklaces or scarves in bold colors also skillfully direct the gaze away from the stomach.

6th tip: Grab fabrics that are too flowing

Pure femininity: Blouses, shirts and tunics made from soft, flowing fabrics such as linen or jersey hide your tummy in a particularly flattering way. In addition, they are comfortable and cozy. Dark, rich colors also hide a few pounds.

Flowing pullovers, oversized blouses and light tunics are the ideal companions to cleverly hide a tummy.

In addition, you can draw attention to your chocolate sides: Do you have long and slender legs? Then tight-fitting trousers – with a comfortable high waist if you wish – or skinny jeans in combination with the wide-cut tops are a perfect choice.

If you like it more playful with your festive attire, then you can of course also choose an elegant midi skirt. Especially as a pleated and A-line skirt, they are currently welcome guests at the long banquet table. Shiny fabrics in metallic gold, silver or delicate rosé distract from your midsection, as does the flattering high-waist cut.

High heels also stretch the leg. You are also welcome to add further eye-catchers to your festive clothing with a statement necklace or an extravagant wristwatch.

2. Layering

As the name suggests, the layering look involves wearing several layers on top of each other. This not only keeps you comfortably warm in the icy temperatures, but also hides the cookie belly.

It is particularly important to combine different lengths and materials with this festive attire. Just like that, it’s a classic layering style.

Thick and coarse wool sweaters or other opaque knit tops are suitable for this in combination with light and also transparent fabrics such as silk blouses or elegant shirts that demonstratively peek out at the bottom of the waistband or at the top of the collar.

Cloth pants, jeans, dresses – the layered look goes with every style and is tailored to your taste. Long scarves and shawls put an additional styling crown on the layered look.

Rough boots or elegant high heels also fit and can form a desired contrast or skilfully harmonize. Anything goes with this holiday attire, even color blocking is allowed.

Why not defy the gray winter days and let a strong purple play together with camel.

3. Dresses with a twist

Ruffles, ruffles and peplums at the waist and neckline skilfully draw the viewer’s gaze away from the middle of the stomach and are both comfortable and elegant for the wearer.

Chic earrings are an accessory that you should not do without. The festive clothing does not need more. The playful elements stand for themselves. Elegant pumps or delicate ballerinas underline the look and make you the highlight of the evening.

While a few years ago clothes in larger sizes – if they existed at all – often eked out a sad existence in the farthest corners as camouflage and baggy fabrics, today the attitude of the fashion industry has changed.

Not only since the body positivity movement began, there have been successful curvy models in the world. They have shown the true style icon for all women over size 36. With the following styling ideas, you can be an eye-catcher as a plus-size woman too.

Below are some of the perfect plus size looks

OUTFIT #1: HIGH-WAIST PANTS, SHIRT, AND BLAZER

With high-waist trousers, which are characterized by the high waistband and reach over the hips , the waist and thus the narrowest point is perfectly staged. The combination with a shirt – cleverly tucked into the waistband – which sits out of competition with the high waistband and rounded off with a short blazer, makes the trio perfect. With high-waist trousers, the legs also appear longer and high shoes also visually stretch.

OUTFIT #2: DRESS OR SKIRT AND SNEAKERS

A tight-fitting dress or a skirt and sneakers may not seem right at first glance. Oh yes – if a few rules are followed: Do a fashion experiment and wear sneakers that match the color of the dress or skirt. Or you combine bright colors and eye-catching shoe prints into a simple dress. So every woman becomes an eye-catcher!

OUTFIT #3: TONE-ON-TONE LOOK

With this simple but at the same time extremely successful fashion idea, everyone hits the right note. Although you can never go wrong with the classic black and gray, it can also quickly appear monotonous and bland. And let’s be honest: Who can resist fiery red?! That’s right, nobody! An eye-catcher par excellence. Many plus size models know that too, and they hit the spot with breathtaking plus size outfit – from head to toe!

OUTFIT NO. 4: CULOTTE, STRIPED BLOUSE AND PUMPS

The culotte is not only a stylish it-piece, but also an ideal compromise if you can’t decide between trousers and a skirt. Plain culottes are best combined with a striped or patterned blouse or a shirt in a different color. Plus-size women are advised to always wear culottes with heels – this stretches the silhouette and the flowing, wide fabric of the culotte caresses the legs.

Midi skirts suit every woman. You just have to know which midi is best suited to your own figure and how to style it correctly in order to easily conceal small problem areas. We’ll show you how it works.

The midi skirt trend is more apparent during the hot season because the garment offers a lot of freedom in the heat and therefore does not stick uncomfortably to the body. And that’s exactly what every lady needs when it’s hot: a light and airy outfit that also looks stylish and modern.

Pay attention to proportions when combining midi skirts

Anyone who thinks that midi skirts are not suitable for their own figure is wrong – midi skirts simply suit every woman! You just have to know which approach to wearing it you should use to hide all your body weaknesses. Basically, it’s very simple: Pay attention to your proportions when combining. it with different other clothes and accessories.

If you have strong calves, you should definitely choose a flared model to make your legs look slimmer. A high waistband also ensures that your body appears longer and therefore narrower. This is of course also an advantage for petite women. Those with short legs should make sure that the skirts are not too long. It is ideal if the midi skirt you  pick reaches just above your knees to visually stretch your petite figure.

Can I wear midi skirts with my curves?

– A resounding yes! Influencers lead the way: midi skirts look particularly sexy on women with curves. If you have a curvy build, you should definitely focus on A-line midi skirts because they flatter your figure. The length you should choose depends on your height. Tall women should opt for a skirt that hits mid-calf, while shorter skirts that hit just above the knee are suitable for short, curvaceous women. Pleated skirts are particularly suitable for curves, as they have a stretching effect – but colorful patterns also look great during the sunny periods.

What top and shoes do I wear with the midi skirt?

Midi skirts look especially great with a silky blouse or loose shirt. Whether you decide on the first or second variant is up to you, but you should always tuck the top into the waistband. This way you automatically appear slimmer and can define your beautiful silhouette. When it comes to shoes, pointed pumps or mules are recommended , as they make your legs look slimmer in contrast to rounded shoe models. But sneakers look great too. The only no-go: ballerinas quickly look girly with a midi skirt.

Apple, pear or hourglass – every body has different shapes and deserves to be perfectly dressed. It really helps to know your own body type.

Some women have more of a straight figure, while others have feminine curves. Depending on the silhouette, the figure type varies. The body types can be roughly divided into five categories (A type, H type, O type, V type, and X-type). It is important to know that these are only an approximation and never depict the whole of reality. Because every body is too unique for that.

Nevertheless, these classifications can help when it comes to choosing the right clothes to look your best. After all, we all want to feel good and look good in the clothes we wear.

Below I will explain what body types there are, how you can recognize them, and which items of clothing make your body look great. You want that, right?

A Type: The pear figure

The A-type – colloquially also known as the “pear figure” – is characterized above all by the fact that the hips are wider than the shoulders and the waist is rather slim. As a result, people with a pear shape usually have a feminine figure, which is characterized by a large bottom and strong thighs.

If you have a pear shape, you should accentuate your torso and waist. You can hide your hips if you want. The best way to do this is by resorting to A-line skirts, fitted tops, flared midi skirts , and mom jeans . The best way to draw attention to your waist is with waist belts or eye-catching details such as ruffles, flounces or corsages.

• wide hips
• narrow shoulders
• big butt
• slim waist
• strong thighs

• conceal hips
• Emphasize the upper body and waist

• A-line skirts
• Pants with flared legs
• corset tops
• midi skirts
• mom jeans
• waist belt

H Type: The banana figure

The so-called H-type, which is also known as the “banana figure”, is particularly striking because of its slim figure and equally broad shoulders and hips. In addition, the waist is less pronounced in this figure type and the bust size and bottom are rather small.

If you’re also one of those people who have a banana figure, you should definitely emphasize your legs. This works best with mini and midi skirts, shorts and high-waist pants . These even visually conjure up some curves. Waisted tops and jackets are also perfect for the banana figure. When it comes to dresses, the empire line looks the most flattering.

• slim figure
• Shoulders and hips of equal width
• straight waist
• small bust
• small butt

TO DO

• Eye-catching details
• Create optical curves
• emphasize legs

CLOTHES FOR THE H TYPE

• mini skirts
• shorts
• high-waist pants
• Dresses with an empire line
• Fitted tops and blazers
• midi skirts

O Type: The Orange Figure

If you have a round midsection, large bust, and slim legs and wide hips, you’re probably an O-type—or “orange body.” That’s why you should make sure that you put your décolleté in the limelight when it comes to clothing. Tops and dresses with a V-neckline are ideal for this.

You can also emphasize your legs by wearing skinny and straight-leg jeans as well as skirts with an A-line. Maxi dresses , oversized tops and long cardigans cover the middle of your body and ensure a balanced look.

V Type: The apple figure

The V-type, also known as the “apple figure”, is characterized by an athletic torso and shoulders that are as broad as the hips. The waist is not so pronounced in this type of figure. Most people with an apple figure have a medium to large bust size.

If you have this figure type, make sure when choosing clothing that it balances your upper and lower body. That’s why you can use mini skirts and dresses to draw attention to your lower body. Tops and dresses with V-necks and blazers are also ideal for this figure type. Flowing fabrics and dynamic details also flatter the apple figure.

• Hips narrower than shoulders

X-Type: The hourglass figure

The hourglass figure is also often called “X-type”. With this type of figure, the shoulders are as wide as the hips. What sets her apart from the banana figure is the waist. This is very pronounced in the hourglass figure. In addition, this figure usually has a large bust and a round bottom.

If you have an hourglass figure, you should definitely accentuate your waist. This works best with figure-hugging clothing. Pencil skirts and A-line skirts also work well for this task. When it comes to dresses, you can confidently choose sheath or wrap dresses. When it comes to pants, culottes are a stylish way to show off your body.
