The foundation of the fashion industry is founded on timeless and modern aesthetics that are intended to enhance our appearance and well-being. However, if we style our clothes incorrectly, even with the smallest elements, we risk spoiling the entire look by giving the impression that we've put on weight. Stay tuned to learn about these fashion faux pas to avoid having the same consequence with your attire, since nobody wants it.

1. A voluminous sweater deprives the figure of sophistication

If you want to look slim and sophisticated, then designers advise you to choose sweaters that will emphasize the beauty of your figure. When choosing a sweater, it is worth considering the individual characteristics of the figure. For example, for women with a large belly, it is better to choose elongated sweater models that will completely cover it. But with wide hips, it is better to choose a sweater, the length of which reaches the widest point of the thigh. With a refined upper body and wide hips, it is worth harmonizing the figure by wearing a batwing sweater.

2. It is better to slightly stretch clothes that are too tight 

Unlike shapewear, the clothes of people who want to look visually slimmer should not fit snugly to the body. This is especially true for knitwear. For example, in the photo, you can see how the same T-shirt looks when it fits snugly to the body (every extra centimeter is underlined) and when it is a little looser (all the extra centimeters are hidden). To make a knitted T-shirt a little larger, you can slightly stretch it with your hands. However, do not overdo it, so as not to spoil the thing.

3. A-line dress

And at first glance, it seems that an oversized dress can hide extra centimeters, but this is not always true! For example, in a photo in a gray dress, a girl looks heavier than in a yellow dress. The fact is that the A-line dress perfectly harmonizes the figure - it emphasizes the waist and hides the belly. Dresses of this silhouette are perfect for women with a disproportionate figure, those who have full legs and no waist. Note that you should not wear such a dress with rough boots, it is better to give preference to classic shoes with heels or wedges.

4. Crop tops are not always a good idea

Short tops and t-shirts can emphasize those extra pounds, if any. But if there is a desire to look slimmer, then it is better to choose a T-shirt that will cover the belly. Women can choose T-shirts with thin lace in light shades, such as peach or pink. In contrast, we advise you to complement the look with dark trousers or jeans, as well as bright accessories. Elongated earrings, scarves, and long necklaces can make you look slimmer too. As for shoes, heels in beige color perfectly visually lengthen the legs.

5. Super life hack!

As you can see, in just one second you can transform your look for the better! Loose t-shirts or jumpers, which fit the body tightly, always emphasize the extra pounds on the belly. But to remedy this situation, you can tuck the jumper into trousers on one side. Thus, in the area of the waist and abdomen, folds of fabric are formed that visually hide a large belly. Also, for this fashion hack, you can tie a jumper on the side with a small elastic band. As you can see, all ingenious is simple!

6. We do not recommend wearing overly puffy skirts

At first glance, it may seem that puffy skirts can help hide extra pounds, but often the opposite is true. Too fluffy skirts, on the contrary, can visually make even very thin girls look fat. Plus-size girls are ideal for midi-length skirts, especially styles such as sun skirts, pencil skirts, and pleated options just below the knee. Note that skirts that are slightly narrowed or slightly flared from the hip, just below the knee length visually make the hips narrower.

7. Dark jeans will make your legs look slimmer!

Of course, the dark color visually makes the body slimmer. Therefore, dark-colored jeans are the choice for those who want to make their legs look thinner. However, when choosing jeans, one should take into account not only their color but also their style. For example, straight high-rise jeans visually elongate the lower body, balancing the "bottom" with the "top". Bootcut jeans that flare out at the bottom also fit well. If you do not want to visually add a few extra pounds to yourself, then we advise you to avoid jeans with a low waist.

8. How to visually become slimmer in one minute?

Of course, you can immediately notice that the girl looks bigger in the second photo. The fact is that she did not tuck in her pullover. Therefore, in general, we got a set of clothes in which the figure of a girl does not look her best. However, this situation can be corrected in a matter of minutes! First, you should tuck the pullover into your pants or wear a short pullover (like in the first photo).  In fact, it is very easy to appear slim!

9. Bow at the waist

Do you want to visually narrow your waist? In this case, stylists suggest tying a bow at the waist - this way your figure will look much more sophisticated than just in a regular jumper. We also note that clothes with a V-neck are slimming, but a high collar sweater, on the contrary, can visually add a few extra pounds. You should also be careful with a square neckline, as it visually expands the shoulder area, which will not play into anyone's hands. As for the round neckline, it suits girls with a long neck and neat shoulders.

10. Even a parka can make you slimmer

The opinion that oversized hides extra pounds is not always correct. The fact is that sometimes oversized outerwear, on the contrary, can make the look less elegant. In the photo, you can see what a tie waist parka does visually stretch the woman's body and beautifully emphasizes her waist. We also want to note that it is important to choose outerwear according to size. A zipper, which is about to come apart at the seams, obviously will not emphasize the figure from the favorable side. Also, clothes made of shiny fabrics, for example, a shiny down jacket, visually make a person fatter.

11. Important Accent

One detail can completely transform a look and impact your confidence. Sometimes, all it takes is to emphasize something, and voilà, you appear slim and stylish. The issue with loose dresses is that they can add unnecessary bulk. However, this doesn't mean you can't wear them; you just need to add a waist belt, preferably in a different color, like matching it to your hat or bag. A differently colored belt will correctly highlight the right areas, and you'll instantly feel the difference.

12. It is important not to overdo it with oversize

Yes, oversized is stylish and still in trend, but everything should be in moderation. If you wear oversized clothes both on the bottom and top, then such a look will give you extra volume. Therefore, for everything to look harmonious, the oversize should be only the top or bottom of your look. For example, voluminous sweaters are best worn with straight skinny jeans or leggings. Moreover, oversized clothing should not just dangle shapelessly on the body but should have clear fit contours and look neat.

13. Be careful with knitted dresses

Knitted dresses often make the figure less sophisticated. In fashion boutiques, a long knitted dress with a high collar is often found. At first glance, it is comfortable and warm, but it is worth considering that such a dress visually shortens the neck, makes the figure rectangular, and generally looks baggy. Also, a knitted dress is often complemented with various patterns, braids, patch pockets, ruffles, and so on. All these decorations also visually add a few extra pounds. Therefore, it is better to wear a knitted tunic and a belt. We recommend complementing the image with a midi skirt, as in the photo.

14. Hiding a big belly can be very easy!

While some girls worry about having a big belly, others figure out how to look stunning and not worry about their appearance. After all, any figure can be shown from the favorable side, the main thing is to know how to do it. A mistake of the girl in the first photo is, as you can see, an overly tight dress, which, moreover, has an overly deep neckline, which does not add elegance to the image. The second photo shows that the figure of the girl has become visually slimmer thanks to the ruched skirt and the cutout on it, which visually slims her legs!

15. A contrasting belt will only draw attention to the extra centimeters at the waist!

If you want to visually narrow your waist, we advise you to choose a thick black belt for this. But thin belts of bright colors, on the contrary, are not friends for those who want to look thinner. We advise you to look at the elastic belts in dark colors that hug the waist and create a sophisticated silhouette. If you want to create an hourglass silhouette, then wear belts at the narrowest part of your waist. But it is better to wear a wide belt 5 cm lower than your chest. That's the whole secret!

@TUMMY HIDING TIPS ( Look 5 Pounds Slimmer Quickly, Mature Women )/ Awesome over 50/ YouTube.com

16. Balancing the look

Straight dresses can often make even a slender woman appear fuller. And if a woman also has a sizable bust, in a dress of this cut, despite her slim waist, she may look larger than she is. Therefore, stylists advise emphasizing the waist with a belt. Additionally, contrasting colors work well in such situations, for example, a dark top and a bright bottom. If you wear a skirt and a blouse, the focus will be on the waist, balancing the look and making you appear slimmer.

17. Another fashion hack is to tie a knot 

We present you with another way to quickly hide a big belly! To do this, we advise you to take an oversized T-shirt or shirt and tie it on your stomach, as you see in the photo. The most popular option is the location of the node in the center. But what is the right way to tie a knot? There are several ways. For example, you can gather the fabric from the bottom edge of a t-shirt, twist it into a loop, and thread the tip through it. You can also pick up the edges of the T-shirt on both sides and tie them into a knot. So do not be afraid of fashionable experiments, everything is much simpler than it seems at first glance.

18. You have to be extra careful with tight dresses

Many girls love and hate tight dresses at the same time. On the one hand, this wardrobe item looks spectacular and can emphasize slender legs, and on the other hand, tight-fitting dresses can emphasize the belly, even if it is not particularly there. Therefore, it is better to opt for dresses that have small folds of fabric around the waist. Also, it's a good idea to take a dress one size larger and adjust it for yourself rather than opt for super-tight clothing.

@10 Surprising tricks to look INSTANTLY slimmer (wish I had known earlier!)/ Petite Dressing/ YouTube.com

19. WOW effect!

As you can see, choosing the right dress can help define your waistline and make you look slimmer! Straight dresses with open shoulders do not add elegance and sophistication to the look. But dresses with closed shoulders and gathering at the waist are a great option for those who always want to look their best! By the way, if you want to visually lengthen a short neck, then a dress with a deep V-neck will help you. What other styles of dresses successfully hide figure flaws? For example, a wrap dress with raglan sleeves and bat sleeve dresses.

20. Sometimes it's better to do without a belt

Contrary to the widespread myth that a belt can hide extra centimeters, this, as you can see in the photo, is not at all the case. When the girl is just in a dress without a belt, she looks much more refined and slimmer. We also note that the girl favorably chose the style of the dress - it fits the body at the waist and has a freestyle around the hips. Thus, the figure is visually harmonized and as a result, we get a beautiful, feminine silhouette. Of course, it is better to choose elegant shoes with heels for such a dress, which will make the figure even more slender.

21. One change can fix everything!

Look at how the woman's look changed as soon as she put on a black one instead of a white T-shirt! She immediately began to look slimmer and more refined, fantastic! By the way, have you ever wondered why white visually makes you look fat, and black, on the contrary, makes you slim? The fact is that light rays, reflected from a white surface, are reflected as much as possible, so the object seems much more voluminous. But the black color absorbs light rays as much as possible, and therefore the object seems smaller in size.

22. Skinny cropped jeans visually fatten and shorten the legs

In a second photo, the girl simply changed her jeans to darker and longer ones - and just look at the difference! Visually, it seems that the girl has noticeably built up! However, not only cropped skinnies can get fat. It's important to be careful with banana pants, which are only suitable for thin and tall girls, but they will make short plus-size girls even fatter. Also, girls who want to visually make their legs slimmer should not wear culottes, especially if the leg length ends at the widest part of the lower leg. In this case, these trousers will make the legs thicker and more massive.

23. Let’s create the perfect silhouette

Once again, we want to emphasize how important it is to consider even the smallest details if you want to create the perfect silhouette. The first fashion hack that visually slims is to tuck the jumper on the sides into the trousers. The second secret that visually stretches the figure is a long necklace and vertical stripes on the clothes. Just look how much the woman's look has improved after she changed a few details. We think it's worth taking note of these fashion tips.

24. Little details can change everything

An improperly chosen skirt can visually add unnecessary weight. Pay special attention to the waist area. If the waistband of the skirt is below the natural waist, it can even accentuate a slightly protruding belly. Therefore, it's better to opt for a skirt with a waistband at the waistline. If you want to conceal problem areas in the hip area, choose an A-line skirt, as shown in the photo on the right, and your figure will look flattering.

25. It is important not to forget about the slimming underwear

Of course, many tricks can help visually hide extra pounds. One of the most popular ways is to wear slimming underwear. For example, the recommended product for waist correction is a corset belt, and slimming pants will help hide extra centimeters on the hips. By the way, there is an important detail - shapewear should be seamless so that it is not visible under clothing. Also, such underwear should not overly compress the body and hinder movement. So, as you can see, there are a lot of cool items now that will quickly help you look perfect.

26. A blazer will help to hide a big belly

Of course, we haven't forgotten about fashion hacks for men. And now we want to talk about what clothes a man can look fatter than he is. For example, if a guy has a big belly, then he should not wear tight-fitting shirts that are also tucked into trousers. Thus, the whole emphasis will be on the belly, and it will seem even bigger. By the way, a blazer can solve this problem! Throw it over your shirt and button it up for a slimmer look. One- or two-button jacket perfectly slims the figure.

27. If you don't want to visually look fatter, it's better to forget about low-rise jeans

Low-rise jeans will only make your belly look rounder and fatter. And if you do not want this, then you should give preference to mid-rise jeans. They are suitable for any men's body type. Also, note that slightly flared jeans at the bottom balance the proportions of the body and visually slim. If you want to look even slimmer, then we advise you to choose jeans in dark, saturated colors. You can combine jeans with any clothes - both with a classic shirt or coat and a sweatshirt or sweater.

28. Bright patterns do not distract attention from excess weight, but rather visually fatten!

Layering clothing is, of course, stylish, but not always. If you put on too many layers of clothing, then you can become like a round cabbage, but does anyone need it? Moreover, we should not forget that bright patterns can visually add a few pounds. It's better to be especially careful with such prints: a horizontal strip, a large cell, and animalistic motifs. But calm colors and well-combined clothes will slim you and give your look a special chic. That's the whole secret!

29. The same shirt can look completely different

We want to note that it is important not only to choose the right clothes but also to know how to wear them correctly. For example, in the photo, you can see how different a man can look in the same shirt. In the first photo, it is impossible not to notice his belly, but in the second photo, the man looks very slim. The whole secret is that, as we said earlier, having a big belly, it is better not to take the shirt into the trousers. Moreover, it is better if the shirt is slightly oversize.

30. Skinny jeans - a taboo for thick legs

While some designers claim that skinny jeans are out of fashion for a long time, some brands continue to produce this piece of clothing. Moreover, recently information has begun to appear that skinny is back in fashion! However, you should not forget that it is better to wear skinny only with thin legs because these clothes will emphasize every extra centimeter. It is also better to abandon styles that have large details and stripes, especially in the buttocks area - such jeans can also make the legs visually thicker.

31. Choose Well-Fitted

Finding clothing that fits you is vital, regardless of your size. Many people choose larger clothing to cover certain body parts, such as their gut or waist, that they feel uneasy flaunting. However, this behavior can actually make you appear considerably larger than you are.

Try well-fitted clothing that detracts from your midsection while still emphasizing your waist.

32. Elegant details

Have you noticed that a sweater can either make or break an outfit? In the photo on the left, the woman chose a form-fitting, elongated turtleneck sweater that emphasized her problem areas and made the outfit less flattering. In the photo on the right, she opted for a light sweater with a neckline that visually elongated her, unlike the previous photo where the turtleneck covered her neck, making her look more compressed and bulkier. Additionally, the sweater on the right is shorter and cinched at the waist, which conceals problem areas. An interesting detail is the long necklace, which also elongates the outfit and makes it look more elegant and slender.

33. Oversized sweater that makes you look slimmer

An oversized sweater often has the tendency to add bulk, especially for shorter individuals or those with curvier body shapes. However, if you're not willing to give up on this style because it makes you feel comfortable but still want to look slender and stylish, there's a solution. How can you style an oversized sweater to make it work for you? Tailor the sweater by tucking it into your pants, as seen in the photo on the right. The sweater won't become form-fitting; instead, it will slightly drape around the waist, reducing excess volume while maintaining a loose fit. Adding a slim belt to your pants is a great way to emphasize your waist even further.

34. Outfit that adds confidence

If you wear a long, tied-up sweater, it can completely ruin your look and add unnecessary weight, as the girl on the left demonstrated. If you want to look elegant, it's better not to repeat the mistake she made. Choose a sweater without belts or simply ignore them. Pair it with a light-colored T-shirt and dark trousers, creating contrast between them. This will make you look confident and fresh. Completing your outfit with stylish boots in the same color as your sweater and a matching handbag will make you appear taller and slimmer.

35. The Appropriate Underwear

If you are properly tucked in and have smooth lines, you can do this by wearing the appropriate undergarment below your attire. 

This illustration demonstrates the difference between wearing the incorrect undergarment and the appropriate undergarment. The woman's abdominal area clearly shows the disparity between the two.

36. Organza’s highlight 

A tank top and jeans - a common everyday look. However, a tight tank top can accentuate folds on the waist, which works against you. Nevertheless, this aspect can be cleverly addressed. Wear a nude jacket with organza; it will conceal imperfections. Instead, the tank top will take on a new role as it provides contrast, making your figure look more refined. Additionally, the jacket will slightly cover fuller hips, and low-heeled sandals will elongate your legs.

37. High-rise jeans are the best choice 

Low-rise jeans were once popular among fashion-forward individuals, but stylists have come to realize that high-rise jeans look better because they not only hold the pants in place but also flatter the waistline. If you want to hide extra pounds, high-waisted jeans are the perfect choice. The photo is a bright example. If you dress like the photo on the right, all your folds will be visible. However, when you opt for high-waisted jeans, you can confidently wear a top because it will elongate your look.

38. Perfect blouse

A loose-fitting blouse can add visual weight, but a fitted one with a wide waistband and a V-shaped neckline will look neater and make you appear slimmer at the same time. The fitted silhouette cinches at the waist, creating an hourglass shape that enhances your natural curves. The wide waistband provides definition and draws attention to the narrowest part of your torso, giving the illusion of a slender figure. The V-shaped neckline also plays a crucial role in elongating your appearance. It draws the eyes upward and creates a vertical line that visually lengthens your upper body, making you appear taller and slender.

39. The right choice of a dress

Do you love long dresses? We understand you. So, let's help you choose one that won't cling to you but will still highlight your figure. Long loose dresses can make your figure appear rectangular, but loose dresses with an elastic waistband and buttons at the top will elongate your look and make the outfit more interesting. These dresses provide comfort and style while allowing you to define your waistline. The elastic waistband cinches gently, creating an attractive silhouette without feeling restrictive. The addition of buttons at the top adds a touch of elegance and draws attention to your upper body.

40. Color is everything

The color palette in an outfit decides everything. Don't believe it? Look at these photos. The choice of colors in fashion can dramatically impact how an outfit flatters your figure. In the first example, the combination of blush, cherry, and black creates a contrast that draws attention to the wrong places, making the woman's silhouette less appealing. On the other hand, the raspberry blazer harmonizes beautifully with the same colors, creating a more balanced and visually pleasing ensemble. It's a testament to how color can work in your favor, enhancing your overall appearance and confidence.

41. Cardigan vs Blazer

If you're wondering whether to choose a cardigan or a blazer, opt for the latter. A perfect example can be seen in these photos. The woman in the cardigan looks fuller, and her clothing appears somewhat baggy, while the same woman in the blazer looks slimmer and more stylish. The choice between a cardigan and a blazer can significantly impact the overall impression of your outfit. In this case, the blazer not only adds a touch of sophistication but also provides structure to the silhouette. It nips in at the waist, creating a more defined and flattering shape. The sharp lines and tailored fit of the blazer enhance the woman's elegance and style.

42. Skirt for an elegant silhouette

The choice of a skirt is a true art. It's better to opt for a mid-length skirt with a slight flare at the bottom rather than a slightly loose skirt that ends at the knees, which only shortens the legs and adds volume to the hips. To complete a successful look, wear a T-shirt partially tucked in at the front, not completely, but just partially.

Selecting the right skirt length and style can greatly influence your overall appearance. The mid-length skirt with a gentle flare creates a balanced and flattering silhouette, elongating the legs and providing a graceful flow to your look. This style choice not only enhances your figure but also adds a touch of sophistication to your outfit.

43. Black blazer will elevate the look

Dresses with geometric patterns in different colors should be confidently and tastefully combined if you want to maintain a slender look. Add a thin belt at the waist and wear a black long blazer. Your waist will visibly narrow, and if you wear tights and shoes in the same color as the blazer, you'll gain even more because now not only has your waistline become smaller, but your legs also appear longer.

44. Black color acts like a magic wand

Black is often a winning choice because it has the ability to visually reduce volume, so remember this simple life hack. In the first scenario, the woman chose a blue sweater with her dress and made a misstep because it added extra volume to her silhouette. In the second instance, she opted for a black sweater, instantly breathing new life into her look and accentuating her slender figure. Every detail plays a role in your outfit, and it's important to always keep this in mind.

45. Light-colored outfit 

Light-colored items are best combined with other light tones. Black heels only shortened the woman's legs, while light-colored ones elongated them and seamlessly extended her overall look. A fantastic addition was the light, long blazer with a wide belt. It sculpted her figure into an hourglass shape and elongated the look, reducing any unnecessary volume. Additionally, the blazer highlighted the woman's feminine features and the curves of her body, making her look even more elegant and graceful.

A basic black-and-white ensemble can be transformed into an interesting look that will make you appear slim and stylish. Simply tuck the blouse into the pants, choose sneakers in a color that matches the blouse, and layer a beige vest over it. The beige color provides a neutral backdrop that complements the black-and-white elements of your outfit while creating visual interest. By following these steps, you'll transform a basic black-and-white outfit into a chic and figure-flattering look that showcases your style and sophistication.

47. Location

We are all aware of how crucial it is to tuck our shirts in for a stylish and slender appearance. You must tuck your top in correctly; it is not sufficient to simply do so.

Tucking in shirts too low or into sagging pants will make you look chubby since it will appear that your tummy is pulling the pants down, even though it isn't. A shirt should be tucked in well above the hips while wearing pants that fit at the waist.

48. Important detail

If we're talking about a blouse with a flared bottom, as you can see in the picture on the left, it will definitely widen your waist and hide its advantages. Choose a medium-width belt that matches the blouse and cinch it at the waist. The blouse will look different right away, and most importantly, you will appear neater and more feminine in it. Remember that confidence is key, and feeling comfortable in your outfit is just as important as looking good. With these insights, you can confidently create outfits that enhance your silhouette and express your unique style.

49. Fabrics 

A long-sleeve shirt made of cheap, thin fabric already looks cheap on its own. Furthermore, it tends to be slightly see-through and accentuates all the folds both on your body and your pants. This choice of clothing cheapens your overall look. Therefore, it's better to opt for a short, loosely fitted sweater made of dense and high-quality fabric. This choice not only enriches your outfit but also effectively conceals any folds, ensuring you maintain a polished and stylish appearance.

50. Charming look

I believe you can clearly see the difference between these two outfits. It's all in the skirt. The first option adds years and makes the woman appear fuller, while the second one makes her look slender and taller. A long, fitted skirt with a playful front slit and a blouse partially tucked in creates a charming look. The choice of clothing can have a significant impact on how one's figure appears. In these examples, we can observe how different clothing options can either enhance or detract from a person's appearance. Whether it's selecting the right dress, blouse, skirt, or outerwear, each piece plays a role in shaping the overall look. Remember, fashion is a powerful tool for self-expression and boosting one's confidence, and choosing the right clothing can make all the difference in how you feel and how others perceive you.
