Long gone are the days when curvy was mislabeled as ‘fat,’ and more full-bosomed women were stuck with baggy Ts and nothing that truly fit. These days, a clothes haul is about more than just if they have your size, so go crazy with patterns and prints to suit you!
Popularly curvaceous and disruptive models such as Ashley Graham and Iskra Lawrence have taken the curvy feminine trend to a new level in the past few years and pushed the boundaries of the fragile fashion industry.
It’s said that individuals with a positive self-image and high self-esteem are happier, more resilient, and more motivated. So, wake up, and love yourself every day.
If you feel like upgrading your closet in 2021 to a fabulous, boutique-like collection to select from every morning, follow these tips and feel beautiful in whatever combinations you choose!
Wear small patterns and avoid horizontal stripes
Small prints and designs tend to make the person wearing them seem smaller. If you can’t get enough of patterns, try petite floral prints and vertical stripes for a super slimming and sleeking effect!
Dark colors
Darker tones are generally perceived to be slimming. However, don’t be afraid to add a splash of color to an outfit to make it quirkier! If you love wearing a certain color and feel confident wearing it, you will look radiant.
Your underwear is your best friend
If you love the idea of wearing a little black dress but are worried it won’t look flattering on you, add in some cinching underwear to sculpt your body shape. Sold in a range of variations, from full body to brief, add some spandex underwear to your outfit to get ultimate confidence, no matter what you’re doing that day!

This was so informative to read. I recently purchased a pair of Reebok sweats and I was not able to try them on in the store due to Covid restrictions here. Once I got them home I tried them on and wished they were a little bit longer but like an idiot I cut the tags off anyway. Today, I wore them all day and now I so wish I had taken them back they just are not a true size. Thank you for all these helpful tips I did not know that about wearing small patterns.
