Tips how to flatter your figure

September 11, 2009 at 12:25 am (Fashion) (, , , , )

We can’t all be blessed with a perfect figure. However, we can wear clothes that emphasize our good points and disguise our so called bad points.

super figure

Two woman with identical bodies can look dramatically different in both size and shape simply because of the clothes they’re wearing. But how can you make the most of your body? Check out these rules to make your figure look fabulous…

1. Use light and dark colours to make your body appear more in proportion.

For example a woman with big hips and a small bust should wear slimming dark trousers or skirt and size creating light colours up top. This two pronged attack can make a huge difference to how you body looks.

2. Use horizontal and vertical stripes to widen and lengthen.

For example if you’re overweight, never wear clothes with stripes going across. This will make you seem even bigger than you are. Instead try to wear clothes with stripes going down. This will make you seem taller and as a result less dumpy.

3. Use bright colours or patterns to draw attention away from problem areas.

For example if you have a bum the size of a small country, wear a colourful or patterned top. This will help keep eyes away from your oversized natural cushion.

4. Stay away from tapered legged trousers.

Unless you have great thighs and buttocks, trousers that come in at the bottom will make you seem much fatter than you are. Trousers which are wide at the bottom will make your legs seem thinner and longer, hence the popularity of flared bottomed jeans.

5. Use scarves and pashmenas to hide, cover and emphasize.

For example a scarf around you neck will draw attention to your upper body. This can be ideal if you’re particularly heavy lower down.

6. Don’t wear clothes that are too small for you.

Fat spilling over the sides of tops and trousers is not a good look. It doesn’t make you look thinner and it definitely isn’t attractive. If you are in between sizes buy the bigger one and have it altered to fit.

7. Heels

They can make your legs look considerably longer, your bum considerably smaller and your overall appearance considerably better. They’re not for every occasion but a woman without a great pair of heels in her wardrobe is missing out on the best figure flatterer around.

Fall/Winter 2009- 2010 shoes

Fall/Winter 2009- 2010 shoestrends  Thigh-High Boots / Over-the-knee Boots

Thigh-length, thigh-high or simply thigh boots are the ones that extend above the knees. They are also known as over-the-knee boots and are said to be a next Fall 2009 Winter 2010 must have.

The only problem is the designers don’t actually care about how women are going to deal with the implied eroticism of the thigh-high boots. In fact, they are frequently related to erotism, boot fetishism, prostitutes and professional dominatrices, so it’s a good idea to know how to wear them properly.

Antonio Berardi, Haider Ackermann and Hermès avoid this unwanted slutty looks by dressing their models in a totally unsexy way. Baggy clothes and too long jackets draw off the attention to the tigh-high boots, loaded with erotism.

Gareth Pugh on the other hand opts for a more dominatrix style by completing the looks with a daring eye make-up.

Emilio Pucci, whose idea is to wear the boots with a short dress or a short fur has stolen my heart. Somehow it makes a perfect compromise between fashion and good impression.

The desired length of this season thigh-high boots is just over the knee, avoiding the ones that reach almost to the crotch (referred to as crotch boots). They can be either flat (Giuseppe Zanotti) or high-heeled (Stella McCartney, Louis Vuitton, Loewe).

For your own good, they are made of genuine leather or suede and the colours seem just toned (black, grey, brown, green, creamy). The aim is so as to make the boots just a ‘dessert’, not the ‘main course’.

Winter 2008 – 2009 shoes: Heels or Platforms

November 5, 2008 at 1:39 am (Fashion) (, )

Winter is around the corner and we have to think about footwear for this snowy season. Couturiers have determined the hot trends of this winter already and we can start looking for a pair or two that will save us from winter cold.

Platform heels

Platform heels

Choosing designer footwear is always a complicated thing. When we see collections on the runways we usually consider the models to be too vulgar, radical, exquisite, brutal, glamorous, etc. It often seems to us that while creating lines designers were reflecting about everything but not an ordinary woman who has to lead a hectic life.

But when we look closer we see that this trapeze skirt can go well with high-stiletto or that coat may be very well accessorized with a pair of ankle boots.

This way we realize that extremely high heels, huge platforms or even a weird structure instead the first and the second can be quite acceptable for every day wear. And we should just have a close look to select something that really matches our own style.

First of all we have to decide what we prefer: heels or a platform.

Let’s start from heels.

The trendy heel for winter 2009 is a very high and thin stiletto. It must be at least 4 inches long and as thin as it can be.
