My Fashion Tips For Body Types

I think the biggest area of concern I see with women is that they try to hide their flaws. For example, if they are bottom heavy they wear baggy pants to hide how they look. Instead, my advice is that they should consult with a retail person who can suggest a form-fitting pair of pants or jeans that will work with their curves.
On the opposite spectrum, some women who are too heavy wear clothing that is too revealing (such as low cut tops). There aren't very many women who would look good in a too-tight top; anyway, so I would suggest they choose a little more conservative look.
Another suggestion or tip is to consult with a tailor for jeans so the correct fit is achieved. I have curves, and jeans often gap in the back for me, so finding a tailor who can make sure the gap is not there in the back is essential. If you have curves, a darker pair of jeans (with no whiskering, pockets in the back, or embellishments), tend to look better as they slim your look.
Also, my last tip is to stay away from pockets on pants in the thigh area if you are bottom heavy . Pockets tend to draw attention to those areas, and if you are heavy there, you may not want that to be the main focus.
My favorite brand for curvy women (jeans) is: Joe's Jeans and Kasil.
