Fabrics

Choose delicately patterned, soft fabrics, rather than bold stripes and plaids that might flatten your curves.

Necklines

The eased shape of a cowl neck is very flattering.

V, U and scoop neckline tops are all great.

The surplice (mock wrap) and wrap necklines (properly fitted) enhance cleavage.

Soft, rounded collars compliment
your curves.

Pants

Flat-front pants with side zips and straight or flared legs reflect the curve of your hips.

Softly-pleated trousers are great if
you have long legs. Darts are
better than pleats for showing off
your curvy hip area.

Jackets & Tops

Match your curves with the curves of a jacket. A soft lapel and rounded hem will accentuate your curves with style and grace.

A gently darted blouse with feminine sleeves flatters your shape.

Steer clear of sharp angles in tops and jackets. Avoid squared-off, double-breasted or boxy styles.

The top button of a jacket should rest just below the bosom. Stick with gently arcing collars like the shawl.

Jackets with minimal details on top, a simple collar and subtly defined waist enhance your lines.

Skirts & Dresses

Soft rather than pleated skirts, or skirts
with a subtle flare balance the curves.

Skirts that smooth over the hips with a
beautiful drape lend ease to your figure.

Yoked waistlines fit over your rounded
hips nicely.

A wide scoop-neck dress with flaring godets and lots of princess seaming looks stunning on you.

Trims & Details

Keep pockets soft, curved and balanced.

Raglan and gathered sleeves trace your shoulder curves.

Don't overwhelm your shape with too many accessories or prints.

 
 

Stop traffic in a princess-seamed scoopneck with a flared godet skirt that showcases your natural vavoom.
