MINIMISE
Your Narrow Midsection
ABOUT A RED HOT CHILLI
Your figure is straight up and down.
Create curves, add detail to shoulders & hips.
Accentuate your middle, to define the waist and create
the illusion of a fuller bust & hips.
Look for dresses with draping & ruching to play up curves you do have.
One shoulder styles ensure a dramatic silhouette.
Whilst an empire waist or simple A-line skirt help to create some
curves. Classic shifts and fitted sheath dresses work well with this shape
