Summer is here, and for chunky 40+ women, choosing the right style of dressing is crucial. The wrong outfit will not only make you look chunky, but it can also make the overall image look rustic.
So, how to wear comfort and style this season, while avoiding the misconceptions of "short and earthy"? Today, we're going to talk about the types of clothing you need to avoid during the summer months to help you create a more confident and beautiful summer look.
Avoid complicated patterns: simplicity is beauty
Large area of complex patterns, fat and messy
Large and complex patterns tend to make the overall look look disorganized, especially for short and fat women, complex patterns not only can not play a role in modifying the figure, but will make people look fatter and shorter.
Choose a simple and refreshing solid color or a small area of pattern to create a clean and neat visual effect.
Overly gaudy color combinations, not high-end
Bright color combinations, while eye-catching, aren't necessarily for everyone.
For short and fat women, too bright colors are easy to highlight the lack of figure, making the overall look not high-end.
Choose some low-saturation colors, such as light blue, beige, gray, etc., which can brighten the skin tone and look elegant and generous.
Eschew loose, formless styles: tailoring is key
Loose, formless dresses that hide curves
Many women will choose loose dresses in order to cover their figures, but this invisible style is easy to make people look more bloated. Choosing a dress that is well-cut and slightly cinched at the waist will not only flatter your curves, but will also look more energetic.
A waistless top that pulls down the height
A waistless top will make the whole figure look disproportionate, especially for stocky women, and it is easier to pull down the height.
Choosing a top with a waist design or increasing the position of the waistline through a belt can effectively elongate the proportions of the body and make it appear more slender.
Avoid pants that are too short or too long: find the right length
Ultra-shorts, exposing shortcomings
Ultra shorts, while cool, don't necessarily fit everyone. For short and fat women, ultra-shorts tend to expose the shortcomings of the legs and appear less elegant.
Choose shorts that are just above the knee and not too close to the knee to flatter the leg line and look generous.
Excessively long mop pants to depress height
Mop pants that are too long will make the figure look shorter, and it is easy to give people a sloppy feeling. Choose cropped pants or straight-leg pants that are of moderate length to not only look taller and thinner, but also to make the overall look more sleek.
Avoid bulky fabrics: light and breathable are more suitable
Heavy denim fabric, stuffy and fat
Wearing heavy denim fabrics in summer is not only stuffy, but also tends to look bloated. Choose lightweight and breathable fabrics, such as cotton and linen, silk, etc., which are not only comfortable, but also bring a cool feeling and look more stylish.
Stiff fabric, not soft enough
Although the stiff fabric is stylish, it is not soft enough and tends to give people a stiff feeling. For short and fat women, choosing fabrics with a strong sense of softness and drape, such as silk, chiffon, etc., can better flatter the curves of the body and create a natural and smooth aesthetic.
Avoid the high neckline: it's light when you're exposed
A high-necked top that looks stuffy
Choosing a turtleneck top in summer not only makes people feel stuffy, but also tends to make the neck look shorter, and the overall appearance is not light enough. Choose designs such as V-necks and crewnecks that can not only elongate the neck line, but also increase breathability and make the overall look more refreshing.
Overly airtight design reduces the feeling of breathing
An overly airtight design can be depressing, especially in the summer, when poorly breathable clothing can be unbearable. Choosing some skin-baring designs, such as off-the-shoulder, sleeveless, etc., can increase the sense of breathing and make the overall look more relaxed.
Avoid too much frills: Simplicity is the most important thing
Cumbersome decorative details, it seems cumbersome
Too many decorative details are easy to make people look cumbersome, which is not conducive to the simplicity and beauty of the overall shape. Choose clothes with a simple design and clean lines, which can better highlight your personal temperament and look generous and decent.
Overly exaggerated accessories, noisy
Exaggerated accessories, while sometimes a highlight, aren't necessarily for everyone. For chunky women, opting for some delicate and small accessories can be more effective in adding the finishing touch without overpowering the crowd.
Conclusion: Find a fashion path that suits you
Summer wear, for short and fat 40+ women, avoid those inappropriate clothing types, and choose simple, generous, and suitable styles and colors for themselves, in order to truly achieve the coexistence of fashion and comfort. Fashion has nothing to do with age and figure, the key is to know how to match and show the best version of yourself. Let's wear confidence and beauty together this summer, and live a wonderful life.
