Hourglass
The main idea
Accentuating the waist
What works and what to avoid
Hourglass — the shoulders and hips are balanced, the waist is defined. There is one task: do not hide the waist. A tucked-in top, a fitted cut and a wrap work better than a loose cut. Head-to-toe oversize erases the main advantage: if the top is loose, balance it with a narrow bottom or a belt.
Tips
- Your figure is already balanced — the only job is not to hide the waist. A tucked-in top and a fitted rise beat loose cuts here.
- Head-to-toe oversized erases the hourglass advantage. If you go loose on top, balance it with a narrow bottom or a belt.
- A wrap dress or blouse is the shortest route to your silhouette: the waistline lands exactly where it should, no belt needed.
