| Look for decoration on the top where the bust
is. The more "intricate" the top part is, the more proportioned
you will look. Look for sweetheart, V-neck, or scoop necklines.
There are some lightly padded bra suits, but be careful. You
don't want to look like a 12-year-old who's stuffed their
top. |
Find a suit with a good bra. Don't settle for
a flimsy bra here, but rather find one with cup sizes....large
enough to keep you in. Also, look for high cut, straight-across
tops that will keep your large top in check--Plunging necklines
are not your friend. |
Look for vertical lines or shapes that angle
up and down. Stay away from horizontal stripes. They cut you
and your height in half, and will make you look thicker. Keep
to solids or small prints. Need extra tummy taming? Some suits
even come with special tummy panels that help hold you in. |
Look for suits with higher legs (not that you
want to jeopardize modesty) but the higher the cut (within
reason) the longer your legs will look (and the less stumpy).
Stay away from boycut leg cuts. They will make your legs look
stocky. |
Count yourself lucky! You have the best figure
and can wear anything! From vertical to horizontal stripes,
high-cut straight tops, V-neck, sweetheart, and scoop necklines,
hour glass figures can have their pick of all the variety. |
Many of us will be pregnant during the summer
months. Now there are really cute suits that flatter while
you carry your little one. Most of the cuter ones have full
skirts, like this one below, so they don't hug tight around
your larger belly. Choose a color you will be comfortable
in. Don't pick "school bus" yellow if you don't want to stand
out. |
