How to quickly make your waist thin: an integrated approach. How to use clothes to highlight your waist and make it thinner

At all times, women strive to be perfect. Many representatives of the fair sex want to have an ideal figure. You can achieve success in creating a fashionable image with the right selection of clothes. Today we will tell you what will make a plump girl slim and give a skinny girl an appetizing shape.

1. Clothes that make you look fat



When buying the next outfit, girls of any size should remember about things that always make them look fat. This list will help those who are plump to avoid trouble, but those who are thin will come in handy:
Clothes with bulging pockets;
Fitted jersey;
Chunky shoes;
Outfits with wide sleeves;
Blouses and dresses with pleats at the seams.

2. The secret to being slim



Overweight women should avoid wide and tight belts, gathers on skirts and blouses, frills on the chest, as well as sleeveless outfits where the blood line runs along the horizon. But there are no restrictions in wearing high-waisted dresses, black clothes that visually slim, dresses with small necklines and narrow sleeves that make the figure more graceful. You can also pay attention to clothes with slanted, vertical or welt pockets.

3. For those who dream of getting better

Despite the fact that many women strive to lose weight, some quietly envy them and try to gain weight. You can do this visually with the help of clothes. For example, thin arms will look good in a blouse or dress with wide sleeves gathered at the wrist. Wide belts at the waist, rounded necklines, and circular pleats on skirts and dresses will also be good helpers in solving this issue. But thin girls should avoid deep, long necklines and too-fitting clothes.



4. Short or long neck

Chubby girls with short necks are recommended to wear vertical elongated necklines and collars with sharp corners. It is better to refrain from cowl-necks, stand-up collars, high-neck sweaters and clothes with a round neckline.



It is good to decorate a long neck with decorative scarves. In this case, stand-up collars, rectangular and round necklines would also be appropriate. There is only one “but” - the length of the neck is emphasized by narrow and elongated necklines.

5. Big hips

Those with wide or full hips should avoid miniskirts and tight short dresses. Also, the shortcomings of such a figure will be emphasized by voluminous pockets on the pants, stripes, and massive decor. A good result can be achieved if you use flared skirts up to the middle of the knee. Folds are allowed in the front and back, but not on the sides. Loose blouses, shawls and scarves on the shoulders or neck will help distract attention.



Shorts will also help you adjust your figure. But for this it is necessary.

Rules for choosing a clothing style

A successfully created image is the key to success in life!

Yes, fashion dictates its own rules to humanity in choosing the style of clothing. But the main thing is not fashion, but your style, which is determined not by fashion designers, but by the features of your physique. After all, the outfits that a tall person chooses for himself will not suit a short person, and on a fat person, most likely, something that would suit a thin person will look bad.

Top list of clothes that always make you look fat:

Pants, skirts with a too tight waistline (when putting on a belt, remember - you can always stick two fingers between the body and the belt);

Jeans with faux rips on the upper legs and buttocks;

Any clothing with bulging pockets;

Tight-fitting knitted clothing;

Clothes with wrinkles at the seams;

Jackets or jackets with a belt;

Clothing with wide sleeves and a large armhole (the narrower the sleeve, the more graceful the silhouette);

Chunky shoes;

Wide belts or belts in a contrasting color, creating a clear horizontal line and thereby shortening the figure.






So, the first step towards the art of dressing stylishly is to correctly determine your body type!

New detailed classification of the main types of female figures from Trinny and Suzanne

Where does the ability to dress well begin? With knowledge of the features of your figure! There are several ways to describe body types. The most famous of them (for example, the “apple-pear-hourglass-triangle” classification) are schematic and do not take into account important features of the body structure. This is why women often cannot determine their body type. Trinny and Suzanne developed a detailed classification, which included descriptions of 12 main types of female figures:

Trinny and Suzanne also conducted a survey of women to find out which body type they found most attractive. As a result, “hourglass” was in first place with 38% of the votes, “vase” was in second place with 29%, and “column” was in third place with 12%.

We look at pictures of body types with descriptions and determine our body type:

1. Hourglass body type

Description: large breasts, proportional shoulders, thin and short waist, full hips (lower and upper parts)

If you have an hourglass figure, you are the epitome of femininity. It’s as if you were made for the attention of guys, but not for clothes. Fashion is a constant source of frustration for you when trying to be “in trend.” You put on a shirtdress or blouson, but because of your full breasts and short waist, you feel “pregnant” in them. The trick is not to hide the body, but to show off seductive forms. Hourglass women simply have to wear tight-fitting clothes that highlight their curves and lengthen their torso. Would Marilyn Monroe be a sex bomb if she wore old-fashioned, baggy clothes?

Remember that most men would rather see beautiful breasts and a full butt in front of them than a bag of bones. So tighten up and rock your hips! Amazing results await you. You will no longer seem fat and overweight.

Appropriate Clothes: The wardrobe cornerstone for an hourglass body type is a fitted V-neck cardigan and pencil skirt. Avoid stilettos that are too thin and choose shoes with a round toe or toe cutout.

2. Vase body type

Description: large breasts, proportional shoulders, long thin waist, slimmer legs and hips than an hourglass.

The vase body type can be considered a type of hourglass figure. If you take the hourglass figure type and stretch it out a little, you will get a “vase”. If you have a vase body type, then it is easier for you to choose clothes than an hourglass figure - you are not as sculpted as they are, and your lower part of the figure is not as prominent as theirs. But most representatives of this body type do not consider themselves lucky.

Your breasts seem large to you, and your stomach is shapeless and amoeba-like. You are not at all happy with the size of your hands. You put on clothes and feel fat. And what's worse, you feel like no one likes you. Everyone sees you as a Playboy bunny. Even if you are a very large vase, you still have the proportions of a truly sexy woman. And size doesn't matter here. The style of clothing that suits you is quite specific. Everything is graceful, open and tight-fitting: Miss “Viagra” is your ideal “look”.

Appropriate Clothes: A plunging neckline will help balance your bust with the rest of your figure. A woman with curves needs equally sophisticated shoes. A single button on the jacket will highlight the thinnest part of the body.

3. Body type “Cello”

Description: large breasts, broad shoulders, short thin waist, full hips and buttocks, small legs.

If your shoulders are broad, your breasts are large, and your butt and thighs are large, you are a cello body type. A true woman!

Perhaps at times you feel more “noticeable” compared to your little friends. Look, here I am! You have no reason to hide yourself. Just be yourself in a gorgeous, figure-flattering outfit and plenty of heads will turn your way as you walk up the stairs or glide smoothly across the dance floor.

It's unlikely that you'll look great in a sheer top over skinny jeans, but thank God! Luckily, you have the bone structure that allows you to wear well-tailored items with ease and grace. The main truth that you need to learn is how to carry your body beautifully so that it looks tall and slim.

Matching Wear: A wide V-neck will give the most flattering shape to your bust. The yoke on the skirt will support your belly and visually divide your butt into two parts. Stable platform sandals balance the upper part of your legs, and straps highlight the grace of the ankle.

As you noticed, the general recommendation for choosing clothes for all three types of seductive proportional figures is - do not hide the stunning curves of your body from the eyes of others! On the contrary, flaunt your assets with well-cut, tight-fitting clothing, emphasizing your waist, chest, beautiful legs and shoulders.

1. Pear body type

Description: small breasts, long thin waist, flat stomach, “saddle”, flat stomach, full legs

If you have a “pear-shaped” figure, your body weight is distributed in such a way that the center of attention is the rounded hips and prominent butt - something that you have spent your whole life trying to get rid of. Looking lower, we see that your ankles and ankles are also not at all as graceful in shape as you would like. This does not mean that you are overweight. In fact, pears can be somewhat thin, but, frankly, the hips will remain disproportionately large.

As we can see, the pear body type has a lot of advantages, and most of them are located in the upper body. Breasts are small, but they can hide well in a soft, beautiful knitted top. Your hands, thank them, almost always look perfect. It is truly difficult to spoil your top with anything. So go ahead, show off all the assets of your torso, leaving your lower body a secret for others.

Appropriate clothing: Avoid side pockets and wear trousers without unnecessary details. Straight boots are God sent to hide your shins if you are wearing a dress or skirt. Be sure to belt your coat to highlight your waist.

2. “Spin” figure type

Description: average breasts, small waist, normal stomach, large hips, full short ankles

Your body type has been dubbed a “pin.” You know that old-fashioned style of clothing where the thin top of the silhouette flows dramatically into a curvy bottom. No, you are not a classic “pear”. The “pear” has a large butt and saddle, and your “problem” is located slightly lower - large hips.

You are convinced that all these are general words. Trying to hide your upper thighs drives you crazy. By trying to hide “those hips,” you destroy the entire figure as a whole. Your beautifully defined arms, thin waist and graceful ankle are disappearing somewhere. Know that the lower part of the figure is much easier to disguise than a huge bust or bulging belly!

A narrow torso makes it possible to wear the most elegant clothes, since there is no need to contain too prominent chest or belly. There are a lot of tricks that allow you to hide a large butt or heavy thighs with the right clothes.

Appropriate clothing: Vertical lines of the lower part of the figure will help visually reduce the hips. Wide lapels on a coat will draw the eye to your shoulders and highlight your torso. Since you have short legs, you will need high, thick heels.

3. Bell/bell body type

Description: small shoulders, small breasts, small waist, heavy hips, full legs

If you're a bell-shaped figure, in your teens and early twenties you were a petite lady with a nice round butt and full hips. What happens to you when you cross the natural and hated threshold of middle age? The lower part of your figure will become disproportionately large. This is, of course, a problem, but it is the reality of life for many short women. Unless you're very careful, you'll likely find yourself hiding in tapered pants with an elastic waistband. Sexy items will disappear from your wardrobe because you decide that your body is no longer worthy of attention.

Stop, dear bell. Your condition is caused by despair. You are still a beautiful little woman who, under our unobtrusive guidance, will shake off the dust from those skirts and dresses that suit you so much and bring the charm of femininity into your life.

Matching Wear: Broaden your shoulder line with a trumpet-shaped coat. Wear a caftan tunic that will hide your hip line. Tapered heels will balance out the lower part of the figure.

As can be seen from the recommendations, the general rule for choosing clothes for representatives of the three body types Pear, Skittle and Bell will be to emphasize the upper part of the body in every possible way and disguise the lower part. For example, tapering skirts and trousers will once again draw attention to “problem” areas. A good solution for you would be straight or slightly flared trousers and A-line skirts.

Graceful and slender girls are a pleasure to look at. Beautiful curves, a graceful gait, a flat tummy are not always a gift from nature. In 99% of cases, this is the result of long, daily, hard work on your body, nutrition, and lifestyle. But the result is really worth it! How to make a thin waist at home: a selection of the most effective methods and what you don’t need to waste time on.

Main body types:

  1. Apple. The most difficult type of figure to shape the waist, has no pronounced curves, the chest and stomach are full, the legs are thin.
  2. Pear. Girls with such a figure look very feminine, their waist is thin, but their hips and legs are wide and full.
  3. Inverted triangle. This type also does not have a pronounced waist; the body at the waist can be wider than the hip line.
  4. Rectangle. The hips, waist and chest have almost the same volume or look so, it is quite difficult to shape a figure with this type.
  5. Hourglass. Ideal type, hips and chest are approximately the same, waist is thin. This includes the world-famous parameter standard 90-60-90.

Of course, girls with “apple” or “rectangle” shapes should not give up and lean on buns. In any case, efforts and work on the body will give positive results. You can pump up your hips and buttocks, choose the right clothes to visually narrow your waist. There are many different ways to slim your waist, including surgery. But drastic measures are not always necessary.

Interesting: According to standards, the waist of a healthy adult man should not exceed 98 cm. For women, the maximum is 78 cm. Large numbers are considered a deviation and indicate obesity and health problems.

The right sport

Abdominal pumping, bending, and lifting the torso are the most popular exercises for the waist and flat tummy. But often they only enlarge the sides, as they are done incorrectly. To really remove the excess in the right place, it is wiser to work with a trainer or at least get a few lessons. Small mistakes lead to pumping of the lateral abdominal muscles. Weighted squats, side bends (including while sitting), and crunches require practicing the correct technique.

What exercises can you do without fear:

  1. Cross bar. A person stretches out into a string and is held in this position with the help of two support points: toes, bent arms.
  2. Side plank. A person stretches out in a position lying on his side, supported by two support points: an arm bent at the elbow and the side of the foot.
  3. Jumping rope. They strengthen the back and abdominal muscles, speed up metabolism, and will have a positive effect on the entire figure.
  4. Deep squats. The exercise can only be done without weights.

Burpee exercises give very good results. This is a small complex for high-quality training of the muscles of the whole body, including the abdomen. It consists of exercises that move from one to another. The lesson begins with a deep squat, which flows into a plank, then another squat and a sharp jump.

"Vacuum" for slimness

A good help in forming curves and getting rid of the tummy will be the “Vacuum” exercise, sometimes called “Pump”; breathing exercises “Bodyflex” and “Oxysize” work on the same principle.

The exercise is done immediately after waking up or simply on an empty stomach; you can not combine it with the main workout and spend a few minutes separately. The vacuum can be done standing, on all fours or lying down. Brief technique: exhale all the air to the very end, pull your stomach under your ribs, hold your breath for 8-10 counts, inhale. Repeat several times.

Proper nutrition and weight control

The waist will never be thin if you eat flour products, sweets, fatty foods, and fast food. All these products contain fast carbohydrates and are instantly deposited on the sides and stomach. It is very difficult to remove fat from this area; it is the last thing to go. Therefore, the primary task is to bring your weight back to normal, and only after that start working on the problem area. An obese or even slightly overweight person will not be able to achieve a beautiful waist.

To lose weight, you can choose some effective diet; a huge number of them have been developed. Calorie counting, protein-carbohydrate alternation, and fasting days help you lose weight. If there are few extra kilos or you just want to reduce your belly with normal body weight, then it is wiser to switch to proper, fractional meals.

Basic principles of proper nutrition:

  1. Carbohydrate foods are consumed in the first half of the day until 12 o'clock. After lunch, only proteins, low-fat dairy products, vegetables.
  2. It is not recommended to consume fruits after 16:00. You can make them into an afternoon snack.
  3. Dinner is as light as possible: chicken, fish, fresh vegetables, low-fat cottage cheese.
  4. After 6 pm you can and should eat so that your metabolism does not slow down. It is advisable to have a meal 2-3 hours before bedtime. An ideal late dinner would be boiled chicken, a protein omelet, kefir or cottage cheese.
  5. Alcohol is very high in calories and harmful, and its use often leads to loss of willpower and overeating. You can sometimes allow yourself 1-2 glasses of dry wine, but not more than once a week.
  6. The maximum serving size is 300 g. It is better to stick to 200-250 g, have a snack every 2.5-3 hours.

Important! Water is needed for normal body function and weight loss, but you don’t need to drink it in liters at once. Drinking should also be fractional, in small sips of a glass every 1-2 hours. You shouldn’t force yourself to catch up with the daily norm in the evening.

Correct posture

Over the years, women get fatter, they have a tummy, their waist spreads out to the sides, and very often this is associated with a biological slowdown in metabolism. As the world-famous doctor Elena Malysheva says, from 30 to 40 years of age metabolic processes slow down by 30%, from 40 to 50 years by another 30%. But for some reason, many are silent about posture. She also suffers over the years, but begins to change much earlier, sometimes from her youth. It’s worth going to the mirror and straightening up, stretching your neck, squeezing your shoulder blades together, and changes in your waist will immediately be noticeable. Your tummy will become flat and your figure will be attractive.

How to restore or change your posture:

  1. Strengthening the back muscles. They are responsible for posture and help support the tummy. Back exercises will help, for example, “cat”. Yoga and stretching have beneficial effects.
  2. Special corsets. Smart devices that simply make it impossible to slouch. There are different types of corsets for straightening posture and preventing curvature.
  3. Constant control. Particular attention should be paid to posture when working at the computer, writing or reading, or eating. It is at these moments that the muscles relax and the stomach “falls out.”

Colon cleansing

The intestines of modern people are lazy, they are not completely cleansed; over the years, fecal deposits, microbes, and mucus accumulate in the folds. Their weight can reach several kilograms. Naturally, this also means excess volume in the abdominal area. The problem is often associated with poor nutrition, namely insufficient intake of coarse fibers - fiber. Fresh vegetables, cereals, and baked goods made from grain flour are increasingly being replaced by buns, sweets, and sausages.

How to help your intestines cleanse:

  1. Eat fresh vegetables, porridge from unrefined cereals, grain bread and wholemeal flour every day.
  2. Take a course of cleansing with pharmaceutical preparations. For example, “Lactofiltrum”, “Fortrans”, “Lavacol”.

Clothes: how to hide a flaw

A person spends most of his life in clothes. It can not only cover the body, but also hide flaws, highlight advantages, and visually narrow the waist. The simplest and safest option is shapewear. There is no need to save money on it; you should not buy it online. It is important to choose the right size. The tummy and waist should be tightened, but without folds or protruding seams.

You should not buy shapewear in bright colors or decorated with lace or lacing, with the exception of corsets. Shapewear should be invisible. If it is not possible to buy several different colors, then it is better to immediately take beige. It will suit colored, white and dark things.

Tricks for choosing clothes:

  1. Dark top, light bottom. If you wear a wide black belt or a dark T-shirt, the waist will look advantageous compared to the light bottom.
  2. A-line skirts. The flared hem visually makes the upper part of the figure more feminine, sophisticated, and favorably emphasizes the waist.
  3. Skirts and trousers made of fabric with horizontal stripes. This option will visually widen the hips, create contrast, and is perfect for girls with a rectangle or apple figure.
  4. Cropped jackets. Such clothes draw the waist line and emphasize it.
  5. High-waisted jeans and flared trousers. They elongate the figure, add grace and sophistication, and emphasize the waistline.
  6. Basque. It can be present on skirts, dresses, blouses. This option is suitable only for slender girls. On obese people, the basque sometimes looks funny and awkward.
  7. Dresses with dark inserts. Dress models with dark side wedges also form the curve of the hips. The figure in such clothes looks slender and sexy.

When looking for clothes, you shouldn’t forget about your color type and your age. What is right and looks good on another person is not always suitable.

Useless and ineffective methods

Not every hard work will be rewarded with a slim waist. In addition to effective methods, there are a lot of useless, but for some reason advertised and well-known methods. At best, they will only take up time; at worst, they can harm the body.

What doesn't help:

  1. Wraps. Yes, you can lose a few centimeters in your waist, the extra water will go away, but in a few days everything will return. You can use wraps as an express method before an important day or event.
  2. Hoop, hula hoop. A controversial way to get a beautiful waist. Some assure of its effectiveness, others complain about the abundance of bruises. But not even the most expensive hoop can provoke lipolysis (breakdown of fat) in the right place.
  3. Slimming belts or thermal underwear. This is not only useless, but also harmful. Many girls put all this on before playing sports, the effect is the same as from body wraps. But only water leaves, and under pressure breathing becomes difficult and the work of internal organs becomes more complicated.
  4. Shaping corsets. They give an instant visual result, but there is no question of any long-term effect.

It’s even worse when girls apply anti-cellulite creams, wrap themselves in film or put on weight loss belts, and then start twirling a hoop like that. The effect of the procedure is possible, but short-lived. It is impossible to lose weight locally, and the lost water will return very soon. The maximum that can be achieved using these methods is to improve the condition of the skin due to good penetration of the cream. But why not just rub it in and give it a gentle massage? Any pressure on the abdominal area leads to pain and injury to internal organs. The path to a beautiful figure needs to be laid out correctly!

A thin waist has always been considered a special adornment for a woman. They strive to emphasize it in any available way, because they so want to be like Marilyn Monroe, Vivien Leigh and even Aphrodite.

And even if you have gained weight and your waist has become “swollen,” or it is naturally not thin enough, don’t be sad, the best advice from fashion designers on how to visually reduce your waist is waiting for you.

1. Color scheme of clothes.

First of all, note that fabrics of a dark color or with a small pattern or ornament visually stretch the silhouette, giving it additional slimness. But precisely small ones, because... large patterns or drawings, on the contrary, make the figure more massive.

Of course, you shouldn’t eliminate all the light-colored items in your wardrobe; it’s just better to choose dresses in rich colors, such as indigo, for special events. As for clothes in light shades, it is recommended to combine them with a dark wide belt, just make sure that it fits your waist, but in no case cuts into it.

And one more point regarding color selection - the waist will be emphasized by the classic combination of “white top - dark bottom”, and it is recommended to choose a fuller blouse.

2. X-shaped silhouette.

No matter how fashion changes, the X-shaped silhouette, so beloved by Hollywood stars, is always relevant. To do this, pay attention to feminine blouses with highlighted shoulder lines and flared skirts.

A strict plain dark-colored dress with light inserts on both sides or clothes with straight vertical stripes will also visually reduce your waist size.

3. Focus on other parts of the body.

Try placing accents in a new way, shifting the emphasis from the waist to other parts of the body.

So, it is worth highlighting your chest with a deep neckline or a bright accessory. You can also highlight your hips with a full skirt or a straight skirt with a chamfer - it will make your waist slimmer, “drawing” attention to itself.

4. Clothing models that visually reduce the waist.

Let's now look at those clothing options that will make our waist much more pronounced:

Wrap dresses and blouses not only visually reduce the waist, but also highlight the bust. Such blouses look especially advantageous with flared or full skirts.

We increase the volume of the upper part of the silhouette - blouses and blouses with a V-shaped neckline or square shape, as well as shoulder pads and lush flounces on the chest will help us with this. In contrast to the voluminous top, the waist willy-nilly becomes much thinner.

Fitted jackets and mid-thigh length jackets are perfect, just keep in mind that it is important that the clothes fit perfectly and the darts are strictly in place.

Knee-length flared skirts have already been mentioned, but classic straight high-waisted skirts, on which you need to highlight the necessary area with a narrow strap in a contrasting color, are also perfect.

To skillfully hide a wide waist, low-rise trousers will come to the rescue, which can be worn with a classic loose-fitting blouse tucked into them. The main condition here is that the trousers fit perfectly to the figure.

Belts and straps are the main means of highlighting the waist, just remember that wide accessories are more suitable for large women, and thin and medium-sized ones for fragile ones.

You can always make your waist much thinner by using a “secret weapon” - a corset or special shapewear. And although wearing them all the time is not recommended, you can pamper yourself with a wasp waist a couple of times a week.

We wish you success in applying our advice, although you are already perfect, and it doesn’t matter what your waist is!
