Step
1



Be comfortable. Regardless of what you choose to wear, you must be comfortable in it.

Instead, choose fabrics and cuts that are flattering and wearable for you.

2



Invest in

bras


and panties. If you want to hide a plus size figure, you have to start from the very first layer. A good bra will lift and enhance your bust line and draw the eye up to your best assets. A well-fitted bra can also create the illusion of a slimmer waist. If you're large-chested, feel free to show off your cleavage with a good push-up or padded bra. A slimming panty can help reduce rolls and bulges and help your clothes fit better.




Step
3



Accessorize. Great

earrings


, headbands or scarves are all great ways to draw the eye up to your face and away from your problem areas. Don't be afraid of colors or prints.

4



Forget about the size, and go with the cut. No one has to know what size pants you're wearing, so don't try to squeeze into something that doesn't fit properly. Instead, choose items that have a tailored fit that work with your shape. Stretchy items and elastic waists are generally a bad idea for plus-sized figures.

Go dark on the bottom and light on top. This will naturally draw the eye upward and make you appear slimmer.
