Hide figure flaws and defects

By: Christopher Jay
If you are pear shaped: Wear tighter tops to show off your trim upper body, and skirts that taper towards the hemline to disguise your pear shape.
Buy jeans that are a snug fit and are low rise (the low rise will emphasize your small waist and the tightness has a surprisingly slimming effect on legs and butt).
Dresses that end just a little above the knee work nicely for pear figures as they hide bulky upper legs.
The best swimsuits for pear figures tend to be bikini’s that have low cut bottoms with a flounce skirt. This draws eyes away from the legs, and minimizes them at the same time.
If you are spoon shaped:
Wear shirts that tend to fall straight down and do not cling, to hide a bulky stomach.
Or wear a snug t-shirt with a button up shirt or sweater over it, leaving the buttons unfastened on the shirt or sweater.
Wear shorts and skirts that are short to emphasize your good feature (your legs).
The best swimsuit for women who are big on top and little on bottom is a full piece that is high cut in the hips.
This hides the stomach, and shows of slender legs and buttocks.
If you are an extremely skinny woman all over:
Wear skirts that flounce out and shirts that ruffle to give you a more rounded appearance.
Wear semi loose dresses that are cinched only in the right spots.
For instance, emphasize a small waist with a dress that is cinched in the middle but flounces out from the hips to give a curvy appearance.
Wear snug jeans, or loose slacks with a pull over sweater, these will both work well for your figure type.
The best swimsuits for skinny women are of course bikinis. Full pieces give slender women a “little girl” appearance, and are not very attractive.
The bikini’s are best if they are high cut in the hips and butt. This flatters a thin woman best by showing off her waist and legs.
Low cut bikinis will also work well with a skinny woman though, if you want to emphasize slender hips.
If you are a large woman all over:
You should go for just slightly loose fitting clothes. Too loose and you will only make yourself appear bigger.
Wear panty hose to make your legs look slim. Avoid overly tight clothes at all costs, this will make your skin roll, and you will look bigger than ever.
Choose mainly capris and knee length skirts or dress for summer. Avoid shorts, miniskirts, or short dresses until you slim down.
The best swimsuit for a full figure is (you guessed it) a full piece, cut low in the hips, and with a skirted bottom.
