Finding Perfect Pants for Your Body Type
Large mid-section
By Ingrie Williams
Average User Rating:
Body type: Large mid-section
Your challenge: Minimizing your waistline
The best pants for you: Pants with a medium rise and a slightly wider leg will lengthen your body and smooth the appearance of any bumps or bulges. Look for dark, solid colors to flatter your figure and draw the eye downward. Also, beware of all low-rise styles – they’ll only make your belly appear bigger.
Dress them up: Empire waist tops are perfect for hiding extra weight around your mid-section. A deep V neckline, on any style of top, will also make your face and shoulders a focal point and help to elongate your shape.
