How to Dress to Look Thinner in Summer?

by Shunzhi Nie 26 Apr 2024

Ahead is the most awaited season for all fashionistas, summer! That time of the year when each of us, whether a fan of CrossFit or a lush beauty, can afford to be bright and stylish every day. Dresses, sandals, playful skirts, and crop tops, all this makes the image as feminine, attractive, and light as possible. But what to do when the body shape is not perfect, as in the models from the catwalk or magazine?

The plan named "start losing weight from Monday" has failed miserably, the gym, as usual, categorically lacks neither strength nor time, and summer is near. Is it possible to lose weight urgently from its beginning? No one has the right to say whether a woman needs to lose weight or not, everyone decides what weight is comfortable and convenient for her. Another thing is the right choice of clothing, because an unsuccessful style of dress or blouse can spoil even a woman with good body figure.

Visually, if you properly compose your closet. With the help of the right clothes, you can solve any "problems" with your figure. Today we will tell you how to hide unwanted volumes of the figure and talk about what things should be in your summer closet if you want to look slimmer.

Summer Outfits to Make You Look 5-10 Pounds Thinner!

Didn't lose weight in time for summer? No problem, because there is a solution! There will be no hackneyed advice about vertical stripes and black color only. We will learn how to "regulate" the volume of the body with the help of clothes that everyone probably has. Of course, the figure on the scale will remain the same, but the reflection in the mirror will please you! So, what to wear in summer to look slimmer?

💕Wrap dress
The most popular style of summer dress will also help you get rid of complexes. Wrap dresses are suitable for everyone without exception. Due to the peculiar cut, such styles create a vertical line, which pulls out the image. The dress highlights the waist, hides the tummy and hips, the v-neckline draws attention to the chest, and a high cut also lengthens the legs. Without such a dress this summer definitely can not do without!

💕A-silhouette dress
This style is suitable for different types of figures and helps to hide imperfections in the abdomen area, emphasizing the beauty of other parts of the body. Satin and silk have an inherent shine, which adds sophistication and charm to your outfit. A-silhouette dresses do not go out of fashion, remaining one of the most popular options in the summer season.

💕Reverse proportion
Let's understand this trick on the example of the pear body shape (narrow shoulders, wide hips). All we need is to turn the triangle (no, not Bermuda) and shift the focus point from the hips to the shoulders. How do we do that? It is simple! All shoulder pieces like shirts and t-shirts should be light, but the bottom should be dark. Bright colors can also help you visually get rid of extra pounds. You can just highlight the color of dignity, and nuances to hide behind muted tones.

For example, on large hips wear dark pants, and up choose a light blouse. And vice versa, an overly lush chest balanced with a light, expressive bottom. Black and white, black and red, and white and blue combinations are suitable. But put off the mix of juicy colors until better times.

💕Dress with a wide belt
A midi dress with a wide belt is a definite must-have for the coming summer season if you want to look thinner. The midi length is universal because it allows you to hide imperfections in the area of the knees and hips while revealing lower legs and ankles. Such a dress will visually slim and "pull out" the image.

At the same time, right now fashionistas wear them with a stylish belt and this is not only a tribute to fashion, but also a flyhack that helps to look slimmer. A wide belt on the waist, in tone with the material, will favorably emphasize the figure and make it more feminine and proportional. In such an outfit you can go to work or a meeting with a friend.

💕Loose fit shorts
To make your wide hips look narrower and your legs look slimmer, wear loose straight-cut shorts with a high fit instead of tight denim shorts. The A-silhouette and the trendy relaxed style will create the right proportions. Length matters too: mid-thigh shorts will be just right.

💕Dress with voluminous sleeves and bright print
Moderately voluminous sleeves will add zest to the most laconic dress and create an impression of fragile and feminine hands. This style is perfect for girls with imperfections in the upper part of the shoulder girdle and will make the image lighter and more graceful.

Bright print distracts attention from possible flaws of the figure and also corrects proportions. In the summer season of 2024, an accent dress with voluminous sleeves will become the second "little black dress", which, according to Coco Chanel, should be in the closet of any fashionista.

💕Shirt dress
Want to hide from the heat without exposing your body? Easy! A shirt dress will be the perfect solution. Such a thing will hide all the flaws of your figure, whether it's extra pounds in the waist and hips or imperfections in the arms and shoulders.

Additional tip: by undoing a few buttons from the top or bottom, you will add a relaxed look and demonstrate the neck and collarbone area, those areas that are responsible for the femininity and fragility of the look.

The shirt dress can be both monochrome and printed: we recommend favoring models with vertical stripes, so you will visually add slimness.

💕Ruffles
You've probably heard many times that voluminous decor makes you look fat. We used to think that ruffles, ruffles, and flounces make us visually only more, but if you place ruffles and ruffles in the right places, you can get a sophisticated outfit in a romantic style and remove all the disadvantages of your complexion. For example, ruffles on the blouse and the hem of the skirt make the waist thinner, and airy sleeves up to the elbow expand the shoulders and thus reduce the hips. But the ruffle, on the contrary, shifts the emphasis to the lower part. In addition, such clothes must necessarily open the ankles and wrists - this will strengthen the "Thumbelina effect" and make the outfit light and airy.

💕T-shirt dresses
Another fashion technique that will visually make you slimmer is adding one oversize piece to the image. Free-cut and oversize clothes save girls all year round. Summer is no exception. So, a voluminous t-shirt dress or just a model from the men's department will help hide unwanted centimeters on the waist. Oversize things will make you look more petite. To enhance the effect, wear shoes with a high heel or higher.

💕A look in total black
Kim Kardashian loves monochrome sets for a reason, because they not only hide excess volume but also visually elongate the silhouette. A real must-have this summer for short fashionistas with lush shapes is a pantsuit in black, beige, or pastel colors.

Betting on black is always a win-win: it looks stylish and hides those extra few centimeters. Black is good in any season if you know how to style it correctly. For inspiration, you can turn to street-style chronicles - black is equally loved by magazine heads and fashion bloggers. The easiest option is a black floor-length dress, which you can wear with black flip-flops or massive sandals if you're going for a walk. In the evening, replace the shoes with sandals with thin straps and complete the image with gold jewelry - simple, but spectacular. The dress must have a neat accent on the waist: dimensionless hoodies and baby-doll silhouettes go only very slim girls, and the rest, on the contrary, add volume.

If you are going to the office, instead of a dress, you can wear Bermudas with a straight jacket or a laconic shirt. In order not to be hot in black, choose things made of natural materials: silk, thin cotton, linen, or chiffon. From artificial fabrics, pay attention to lyocell and modal, which are comfortable because they are breathable.

💕Flared pants and lantern sleeves
Another stylish and modern image for those who would like to have an hourglass figure. So, let's correct the shape with the right clothes. Accent on the shoulders and wide pants will visually make your waist look slimmer.

💕Suit vest with wide pants
This season, vests unexpectedly returned to fashion and immediately moved into the category of must-have things. The vest works with the proportions of the figure as well as diet and gym: its sides create a vertical, which "pulls out" the silhouette. Wide palazzo pants with a high waist, which must be worn with heels, will enhance the impression. If the thermometer is confidently approaching +30, replace the pants with the same Bermudas. A simple basic T-shirt or a retro-style blouse will work well under the vest. You can also wear it with light dresses - such a technique will allow you to complicate the image in a good way.

The vest will look especially stylish as part of a three-piece suit, and in this version, it should be worn directly on the naked body. Take a closer look at models in thin stripes - this print is unrivaled in terms of optical illusions: it can easily make you look slimmer by a size. Fashionable positions are firmly held by free-cut suits in men's style, which in contrast only emphasize femininity.
