As you can see in the picture, Octavia Spencer wears dress that is comfortable, but even more important is that she wears underwear and bra that fit her curves perfectly, without making her feel tight. So, the first tip is to find the right size of underwear that will fit perfectly (and make sure that it is extra sexy, because how we feel inside reflects on the outside)!
2. Wear Pants With Straight Legs

When it comes to pants and jeans, we recommend you to choose the ones with straight leggings, just because they will frame your figure nicely. Lets be honest, only a few women that are blessed with perfect figures can pull out big baggy pants, which can only make you visually look bigger. There are few exceptions with the tapered jeans, if you find the ones that fit you perfectly, then nothing should stop you from wearing them!
3. Wear Clothes with High Waist

It doesn’t matter if it’s pants, dresses or skirts, make sure to always choose pieces of clothes with high waist instead of low ones. This type of waist will make your curves more visible and will shape your figure nicely, or if you already have a pieces of clothing with low waist, then you can combine them with longer sweaters and tops.
4. Penciled Skirt and Dress

Longer tops with a nice line on the waist will highlight your curves, while the short ones can only do the opposite. Because of that, a few longer tops in various colors and fabrics are something you need to have in your closet and combine them with jeans and pants.
6. Avoid Too Tight Clothes
Our advice is to stay away from too tight clothes, because they can only make you feel uncomfortable and will limit your movements. Instead of that, choose some elegant pieces that leave space to feel comfy and pleasant by wearing them.
7. Combine Black with Some Noticeable Fabrics

You seem like a 15year old with a bad attitude…this article is hugely offensive and to be quite honest I don’t think you have a clue on what not to wear. Your opinion (yes opinion, since you lack facts) was a waste of my time. Please pay attention to what you say and how you say it in the future. Lastly, from someone who’s third language is English, work on your freaking grammar!
This article has a lot of great points…I do a lot of these things already but never tried high waisted so I’ll try that on my next shopping spree. Thanks 🙂
ps…and to all the haters, clearly you have no fashion sense or class.
What a great article. So many cover up with oversized clothing and hide. You have made great points. Thank you I will try to branch out a little now.
Leave a little mystery Ladies. My motto is weather you do got it or not you don’t need to flaunt it. I’m on the curvy side myself, doesn’t mean tight clothes showing every nook and cranny will do me or anyone else any favors. Nor do I want to see a skinny woman wearing something extremely tight. Take pride in your appearance you never know who you’ll meet was always my grandmas motto.
Please don’t pay any attention to the offensive comments and language above. I realize these are only tips, and some of them are very helpful.
