They’re particularly good on those with a defined waist I believe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-dress-more-for-my-body-shape#post-1883281 Sat, 27 Jan 2018 11:33:47 +0000 Mainelady 1883281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Without seeing pictures, I am thinking that clothing designed to show off your waist would be good (body con, fitted, princess seaming). Belts could be your best accessory. If you prefer not to go with fitted styles, I think dresses would be great for you: sheath and a-line come to mind. I think most skirt styles outdo be great on you when paired with either a cropped or fitted top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-dress-more-for-my-body-shape#post-1883169 Sat, 27 Jan 2018 00:33:54 +0000 binkle 1883169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is your height?&nbsp; Could make a difference.</p> <p>I am a tallish (5'8") hourglass, but I would guess that my measurements on a 5'1" would look a whole lot different.</p> <p>In any case, you've been very perceptive in noticing that "baggy" does't work for everyone.&nbsp; You don't have to go super body-con or skin-tight-tailored, but good fit across the shoulders, at the waist and hips, makes everyone look good I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-dress-more-for-my-body-shape#post-1883113 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 21:43:54 +0000 tulle 1883113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Cardiff girl:&nbsp; Try cropped sweaters, fitted jackets, high-waisted pants, belts--anything to accentuate that waist! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-dress-more-for-my-body-shape#post-1883074 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 20:02:33 +0000 Cardiff girl 1883074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have fab measurements! I m sure that you will get lots of good advice from the forum.I m no expert but with a 26inch waist I would start by showing that off.It would be a real shame to cover a figure like that in baggy jumpers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-dress-more-for-my-body-shape#post-1883011 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:06:50 +0000 Nicky 1883011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My measurements are shoulders:37.5 bust:34 waist:26 hips:36<br /> Wearing baggy sweaters tends to make me look larger than i actually am and i’m overall really bad at picking clothes to suit my figure need some help </p>
