Lingerie And Undergarments\u2014Getting It Right<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386440\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>Wearing the right intimates is a given, but some of us need to pay more attention to a few things than others normally would. It is important that you choose a bra; that is not loose or sagging, but makes you uptight while giving the right definition. Also, consider high-rise underwears\u2014these help you a great deal. We need to get this one right.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Shapewear\u2014To Your Rescue<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386439\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>You should try these if you have not already. They are your rescue rangers; I could not wait to get my hands on these. It basically, tucks the unflattering flab and tires back into the tummy, at least it creates the illusion. These soft, comfortable and tight-fitting undergarments come in a lot of variants, taking full control of your tummy area. You can easily get away with those body hugging dresses that were forever part of your wish list. It makes a lot of difference, especially if you make smart choices. I assure that you\u2019re going to love it.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Body Posture\u2014Matters!<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t pay much attention to our posture, but it\u2019s time we all do. Being unaware of your ergonomics while sitting or standing will eventually add up to a lot of other things. Poor posture is proven to sag and loosen the abdomen muscles further and blowing up the bulge, more than what it already is. Not only for wearing great clothes, working on your posture is a healthy practice even otherwise. Make a conscious effort to give it some time; you will see the change for yourself. Remember, a slouchy posture is only going to make it worse.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Dress Smart\u2014Knowing The Tricks Of The Trade<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386437\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>Gone are the days when being loud and gaudy was hep. Dressing up classy and carrying it off well is the all new mantra. But, first, you need to get your basics right. Understand your problem areas and your strengths. Wear dresses that steer the attention away from your tummy; it could be just a flowy design or pattern that does it for you. It\u2019s also worth mentioning that it\u2019s best to stay away from body-hugging clothes, unless you\u2019re sure of pulling off a bulgy stomach. Choose what you want to make the center of attraction and dress accordingly.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Colors, Patterns, And Fabrics\u2014Know It All<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386436\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>To begin with, fabrics make a lot of difference; every color and pattern look differently with different fabrics. If you are serious about hiding your tummy, then I suggest you go for dark colors, flowy fabrics, and vertical patterns. This is a fail-proof method that generally doesn\u2019t go wrong. Horizontal patterns give it a broad look, thus vertical patterns for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Layer It Up\u2014And Make-Believe<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386435\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>Layering is another technique that magically hides it all away, shifting the focus anywhere but your tummy. Combinations like the tank top with plaid shirt; knee-length dress and a cape; trousers with a shirt and blazer or shrug etc. work pretty well to your advantage. Layers that are unbuttoned gives it a significant effect making you look taller. Make-believe in the truest sense.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Skin Tight Dresses\u2014Might Not Be A Great Idea<\/h3>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386434\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>For me, it\u2019s not very difficult to stay away from these because I\u2019m not a fan of anything body-hugging, not that my body permits it. Either way, it\u2019s best to go with something that has a flow, bounce, and definition to it. If you\u2019re comfortable in your skin and whatever you\u2019re wearing, go ahead\u2014there\u2019s no stopping you!<\/p>\n<p>Had I known any of these, my shopping experiences would have been less challenging. Take a minute to understand the in and out of each of them. Let\u2019s use these tips to build the blocks and look at dresses that will not just camouflage the unflattering fat but also make you look stylish and confident.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Dress To Hide Belly Fat \u2013 Outfit Ideas<\/h2>\n<p>Are you ready to have a look at the dresses that hide belly and love handles? Scroll through and see what defines you the most.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Ruffle Or Peplum Tops<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Ruffle-Or-Peplum-Tops.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386433\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: 1, 2<\/p>\n<p>Peplum tops or dresses cinch at the narrow part of your upper waist and lift up as they train down to the belly button. Best for your curves. Ruffle tops shift the focus and conceal those bulges. It\u2019s all about the illusion and creating it the way you like it.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Vertical Pattern Shirts Or Dresses<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Vertical-Pattern-Shirts-Or-Dresses.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386432\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: 1, 2<\/p>\n<p>Vertical dresses are for women with frailties like ours. Unlike the horizontal patterns, these make your body look taller; so you appear slimmer than your usual self. This way you can fully enjoy what you\u2019re wearing without having to worry too much about the flabby stomach.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Pleated Skirt And Plain Tops<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Pleated-Skirt-And-Plain-Tops.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386431\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p>It is a general assumption that people with a protruding tummy cannot wear skirts. I thought so too for a very long time. Yes, if you opt for denim or a small waist skirt, it ought to happen. Try pairing your plain T-shirts with pleated skirts; it makes a lot of difference. These skirts start right at the tip of your belly button, so go with a top that is soft and airy. If you can pull off a high-waist skirt, nothing like it, either!<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe<\/p>\n<h2>4. Tops With Pom Poms Or Frayed Edges<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Tops-With-Pom-Poms-Or-Frayed-Edges.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386430\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: StalkBuyLove, 2<\/p>\n<p>Pom-poms are a rage right now, and they work to our advantage. So do ruffled tops. Those frayed edges and pom-poms absorb the attention masking the painfully wobbly areas. These are both stylish and figure-flattering. We just need to learn to hover around our pain areas.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Dark Colored Flowing Dresses<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Dark-Colored-Flowing-Dresses.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386429\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Myntra.com<\/p>\n<p>Wearing dark colored dresses to hide belly will always work. If you loved an outfit and are not sure if it goes with your figure? Or apprehensive that it will sit well on the tummy, go with a dark color. Even better, if it is either flowing or wavy.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Oversized Tops With Trousers<\/h2>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Oversized-Tops-With-Trousers.jpg.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-386428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Jabong.com<\/p>\n<p>This ensemble is not just fool-proof but also gives you a chic and classy look. Pick up by at least one size more than your regular size and team it up with a pair of slim-fit trousers, jeggings or leggings. Preferably something that goes below your hip. Accessorize to finish the look, and you\u2019re ready to go!<\/p>\n<p>Is not it amazing how there are dresses to hide the belly too? It sure is. So, do not budge on your style or your confidence! These dresses will make you feel confident and help cover your belly. You do not need to compromise on your style quotient just because you do not have toned abs. Embrace your natural beauty and if you wish to get rid of the belly permanently, adopting a healthy lifestyle is a must. So, take inspiration from our list while concentrating on your diet and exercise.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>The following two tabs change content below.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ts-fab-list\">\n<li class=\"ts-fab-bio-link-386426 active\">Author<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Pratima Ati<\/h4>\n<p>After working in Marketing and Business Development for a few years, Pratima Ati jumped ship to pursue two things she&#8230; more<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"widgettitle relatedtitle\">LATEST ARTICLES<\/h3>\n<ul id=\"scroll-content-containersc\">\n<li class=\"scroll-content-related related_posts_bottom_list visible-lg-block \" style=\"min-height: 200px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Indian-Traditional-Dresses-\u2013-Ethnic-Essentials-For-Every-Girl-340x255.jpg.webp\" \/>Traditional Indian Dresses That Every Girl Can Wear<\/li>\n<li class=\"scroll-content-related related_posts_bottom_list visible-xs-block \" style=\"width: 98% !important; margin: 0 auto; height: auto; float: none; border: 1px solid #eee; font-weight: bold;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Indian-Traditional-Dresses-\u2013-Ethnic-Essentials-For-Every-Girl-340x255.jpg.webp\" \/>Traditional Indian Dresses That Every Girl Can Wear<\/li>\n<li class=\"scroll-content-related related_posts_bottom_list visible-lg-block \" style=\"min-height: 200px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/1879_20-Spectacular-Salwar-Kameez-Designs-That-Will-Leave-You-Wanting-For-More-340x255.jpg.webp\" \/>20 Latest Salwar Kameez Suit Design Patterns For Women: 2022<\/li>\n<li class=\"scroll-content-related related_posts_bottom_list visible-xs-block \" style=\"width: 98% !important; margin: 0 auto; height: auto; float: none; border: 1px solid #eee; font-weight: bold;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/1879_20-Spectacular-Salwar-Kameez-Designs-That-Will-Leave-You-Wanting-For-More-340x255.jpg.webp\" \/>20 Latest Salwar Kameez Suit Design Patterns For Women: 2022<\/li>\n<li class=\"scroll-content-related related_posts_bottom_list visible-lg-block \" style=\"min-height: 200px;\"><img src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.stylecraze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Colors-That-Go-With-Brown-\u2013-Tips-And-Outfit-Ideas-340x255.jpg.webp\" \/>What Colors Go With Brown?
