Six Tips for Wearing Jumpsuits
Choosing a jumpsuit to flatter a plus size figure is as easy as choosing any other piece of clothing if you keep a few tips in mind. To make the most out of your jumpsuit and to be sure to get one that flatters your figure, consider the following tips when shopping.
- Jumpsuits by design usually have a full, flowing cut so getting the right fit is imperative. Look for styles that caress the curves without emphasizing any bulges or adding width at the wrong places. Boot cut legs are more flattering for those with skinny legs, while flare or fuller legs disguise the hips and thighs.
- Matching or self-fabric belts help create a slimming illusion, but contrasting color belts or tops make the silhouette look short and squat.
- High heels with full-length hems elongate the leg; short or flat shoes shorten the leg.
- Fabric blends that include spandex will stretch so the garment moves with the body and presents a sleek, slim look.
- Stiff fabrics like denim hide bulges and figure flaws better than soft, draping fabrics that may cling.
- Dress up jumpsuits the same way as any ensemble by adding a jacket or sweater or by layering pieces.
- A short sleeve mock turtleneck under a sleeveless jumpsuit changes the look of the outfit in an instance.
- Pair a strapless jumpsuit with a glittering metallic bolero or shrug for instant glam.
