How to hide that tummy for the hourglass body shape

Ladies, it’s all about creating an optical illusion and diverting all the attention away from your midsection, which is your stomach.

Pretty confusing, yeah? Anyway, the key is to hide your big tummy. I know! earlier I mentioned something about drawing attention to your midsection and now am saying the completely opposite thing.

Well, yeah! after all, we are trying to hide that big tummy, aren’t we?

Here are a few tips and tricks that can flatter your big tummy and accentuate those stylish curves.

  1. Colors, fabrics, and structures are crucial in creating the optical illusion of a small.
  • Darker colors have a general slimming effect and give the illusion of a flat stomach. Dark rinses worn over the mid-area ensures that the stomach recedes and gives you that flat stomach effect. A general rule that you need to remember is darker colors equals slimming effect, brighter colors equal widening effect.
  • Fabrics play a very vital role in creating that narrow effect on your tummy. Avoid clothes that cling on to your bodies such as satin or any other light material, instead go for loose-fitting blouses or tops.
  • Structured clothing such as jackets or blazers give a flattering silhouette and draws attention away from the waist. Structured clothing offers an extra width across the shoulders thus, giving an exaggerated, V-shape downwards that minimizes the tummy area.
  1. Want that classic iconic silhouette, reach for a fitting and flaring wrap dress which will go a long way to flatter your best features and hide your tummy. Additionally, LBD goes a long way in disguising that tummy.
  2. According to Livestrong and Prima, high waisted Jeans and fitting jumpsuits give a flattering waist slimming effect and because of your killer sexy curves there will be no need to add extra details.
  3. Trench dresses especially fitting double-breasted trench dresses give an optical illusion of a flat tummy and draws the attention away from your stomach area.
  4. Get yourself shapewear, yes! I know they can be a little bit uncomfortable but you need one to create that slim illusion for a big stomach as noted health.  To avoid or minimize the discomfort, you could always get a size bigger. Shapewear gives a smoother cleaner silhouette.
  5. Ruching or empire waistlines fitting below the bust line and flowing downwards can work towards disguising a big stomach.
  6. Ensure that your bra is the right size and pulls your breasts up higher to elongate your midsection and give you that tummy flattening effect.
  7. Since the point is to draw the attention away from your waist, avoid crazy patterns and sequences. Instead draw attention to your neck, arms, and legs.
  8. If you want to do belts, pick slightly wider belts preferably one inch wider with a rounded buckle to give that fashionable, sleek and flattering disguise to your midsection as noted in Prima. Additionally, the trick would be to wear the belt slightly above the area you are most widespread. Because if you do, you will only be creating more bulges and protrusions along your mid-section.
  9. A-line dresses or skirts are universally flattering more so if they fit nicely. The A-line shape dress or skirt is free fitting hence diverts attention away from your stomach region.
  10. Lastly, posture is very important. A straight posture compared to a slouching one elongates your body and diverts attention away from your midsection
