Have a Small Waist No Matter the Body Type

Would you like a small waist without the exercise and hassle? Here is how to achieve this feat by making the most of clothing and visual techniques.

Steps

  1. Add volume to your upper torso.
    • Wear a padded or push-up bra.
    • Wear a supportive bra to lift your breasts and elongate your torso.
    • Wear shoulders pads in a blouse, dress or jacket.
    • Try a gathered, short or three-quarter length sleeve.
    • Try a loose blouse or jacket with a belt.
    • Try a loose dress with a gathered waistline.
  2. Slim your waistline.
    • Wear sportswear with dark panels at the side seams.
    • Try a fitted blouse or dress with princess seams or tucks at the waistline.
    • Wear a thin belt with a short torso. Wear a wide belt with a long torso.
    • Wear a contrasting belt with a small waist. Wear a loose belt in the same color with a large waist.
    • Wrap a scarf around your natural or empire waistline. Choose the smallest area.
  3. Add volume below your waistline.
    • Wear a gathered or A-line skirt.
    • Try a pleated skirt or gauchos.
    • Wear flared pants.

Tips

  • Have good posture.
  • Tone your figure with a healthy diet and exercise.
  • Stand diagonally to a camera. With hands on your hips, turn your torso, breath in and smile. This gives slimness to your waist and hips.
  • Try to suck in your tummy as much as you can; trust me, it helps a lot.
