A perfect figure is all about the curves and every woman wants that hour glass figure. However, not everyone is naturally endowed with tiny waistlines and not everyone likes going to the gym to work out in order to get that perfect waistline.
But thanks to fashion, you can create the perfect waistline without so much effort. This is by wearing clothes like:
Sheath dress: This is a fitted, straight cut dress, often nipped at the waistline with no waist seam. While the sheath dress can come in many patterns and lengths, it often is worn with short sleeves and reaches knee length. The fashion trick behind this dress draws the eye to the middle of the body and makes the torso appear much smaller by creating an hourglass shape.
High-waist, wide-leg trousers: The best thing you can do for your hourglass frame when it comes to your lower half is to elongate your legs. The high-waist, wide-leg trouser is both chic and flattering, even better if the trousers have a belt which accentuates the waist more.
Belts: This is the easiest way to achieve that hourglass perfection. The belt secured around your middle draws the viewer to your defined midsection. You can use the belt when you wear your favourite denim and tucked blouse to stay on trend. The belt can also stop a tunic or shirt dress from looking shapeless.
Wrap dresses: Invented in the 70s by fashion icon and designer Diane Von Furstenberg, the wrap dress is a staple piece of any woman’s wardrobe. It accentuates the waist and bust, helps hide bulges and creates curves where they are lacking. It is advisable to own a wrap dress at least because it will see you through any occasion.
Belted jacket: You need a bra and a belt for this tip to work. The bra pushes up the breasts and off the torso, thereby creating more space between the breasts and belly. Then add the belt just above your real waist –an inch higher on the ribcage. Try it with any dress, form fit and flare styles to free-flowing ones.
Lower necklines: High necklines make you look more boxy, while lower necklines, especially deep Vs are better because they draw attention to your face. You can also have darts put in the back of your button-downs.
A-line skirt when you want to tuck in your top: Look for skirts that fit around your natural waist in fabrics that are stiff enough that they do not just hang limply over the hips and instead flare out away from the body instead. Bodysuits are also great if you want to achieve the look of tucking in your shirt.
