CHOOSE WELL WHAT TO WEAR !
Forget clothes and dresses that make you look taller. Opt instead for pieces that can highlight your chest, waist, hips, and buttocks.
You should avoid wearing :
Clothes with deep V-necks, as beautiful as they are.
Jewelry that hangs like necklaces that lengthen the silhouette or earrings that lengthen the face.
The mini skirts and shorts which accentuate your long silhouette by revealing your long legs.
The dresses and tops with thin straps.
On the other hand, we prefer pieces that create volume such as a drapery for example or a bustier decorated with rhinestones, pearls or stones to highlight the chest. Well cut pieces without being too tight are : just at your waist to avoid looking "drowned" in your clothes.
Textures such as laces and embossed fabrics also bring volume to your silhouette.
For a silhouette in X, bet on the dresses and fitted jackets, which tighten at the waist. For a glamorous style, dare draped or ornate strapless strapless bustiers and dresses with a cutout at the back to highlight your back and shoulders.
THE ACCESSORIES THAT BRING THE MOST FEMININITY

Bibs : It is the perfect jewel to dress your headwear and illuminate your bust.
Rings or week rings : They allow to emphasize your fine wrists while bringing a certain roundness.
High belts : To highlight your waist, opt for a high waist belt!
Stoles or scarves : These are accessories to be preferred to create an optical illusion of volume! To be placed carelessly on the bust, remember to coordinate the color with your outfit.
Flat shoes : To avoid making your silhouette slender, opt for pumps that are not too high or flat shoes such as ballerinas, moccasins or sneakers.
