Wie man sich für große Hüften und Oberschenkel kleidet?

Since ancient times, women's legs have been a symbol of attractiveness and sexuality of the beautiful half of humanity, so many women dream of having those long and slender legs. Even beautiful legs of perfect shape \ are not naturally awarded for all ladies, and when the warm months of the year come many begin problems with wearing short skirts, romantic sundresses, and sexy dresses. What buttons to choose if you have wide hips? Should you wear loose pants or prefer tapered ones? Can pants correct problem areas at all?

Hundreds of thousands of women make the same mistake every day - choose baggy, often even shapeless clothes, moreover, often in dark colors, which seem to hide the lush forms, hiding problem areas from prying eyes. Of course, it does hide them, but together with them, it also hides everything else - your individuality, all the advantages of your figure, your self-esteem and self-confidence. So, what should you choose if you have wide hips? Should you wear loose pants or favor an A-silhouette skirt? Can clothing such as pants and skirts even correct problem areas?

In this blog, we will tell you how to hide the shortcomings of the legs competently choosing the color and style of clothing. How do you dress properly to emphasize a beautiful figure, show femininity, and hide those features of the legs that you are less sure about?

Thanks to Kim Kardashian, thanks to whom full hips are considered more of an advantage than a disadvantage. However, not every girl dares to take an example from the star and go out on the street in a super-tight pencil skirt and a cropped top. For such modest women, our task is to organically fit this volume into the silhouette so that it looks proportional to the rest of the body.

*️⃣Building up the body
This technique helps to remove the contrast of the difference between the volume of the legs and the rest of the silhouette, which makes the legs no longer look so massive. We choose more massive shoes: sole, wide heel, elongated cape, top with volume: blazer oversize, voluminous sleeves, second layer, etc. We make our legs as easy as possible by choosing skirts and pants in silhouette but without fitting. It turns out that we get the whole body in proportion to the legs, from which the ratio of volumes of legs/feet, and legs/shoulders do not look so strikingly different, which is perceived by the eye of the beholder as harmony.

Don't forget that the more massive the top, the more voluminous should be the balancing shoes. Under the oversized shirt is quite suitable sandals on a substantial, but without fanaticism, sole. But under the leather biker jacket, you need loafers or derbies on a tractor.

*️⃣Keeping an eye on lengths
There are three constriction zones along the length of the legs where skirts, dresses, shorts, and pants should end: 2-3 fingers below the widest horizontal of the hips (+/- mid-thigh). Higher than that, I think everyone understands why you shouldn't. Below, the skirt or shorts turn into a massive square on the legs, which visually expands in the eyes of the beholder.

Narrowing below the knee, the knee itself is closed Above the knee, we still have a “square”, below the area below the knee the shin begins to widen (if you don't have it, you can go lower).

1-2 fingers above the narrowest point of the ankle. Above still widened shin, below we “eat” the natural “constrictor” of the silhouette, the ankle, gets a full leg.

Very important: the horizontal hem of skirts or the end of the pants should not be in the lining. Always, even with things in silhouette, even with skinny jeans, a little bit off the body, a little bit of distance. This gives the visual effect of a narrower leg.

*️⃣Do not “cut” the legs, but pull them
The longer a full leg looks relative to the body, the slimmer it seems. Conversely, the shorter the leg looks, the more massive the volume looks on it. Consider the different scenarios:

You put on an elongated top. The legs on top, logically, were cut off. In this case, you should either extend the leg with shoes in the color of pants or skirts. Or wear a long top in the color of the bottom, so as not to visually cut the silhouette. Or color link the bottom with the top: for example, you have white pants, a beige blazer, and a white turtleneck, peeking out from under the blazer.

*️⃣Accentuate your look
The right accent on the chest, open back, or neat shoulders will help to draw attention away from the lower part of the figure. For example, shirts with voluminous sleeves, and turtlenecks with open shoulders in combination with straight-cut pants will add romanticism to the everyday image.

One of the advantages of this type of figure is a beautiful waist, it can be emphasized with belts. And this season's topical accessories - scarves will draw attention to the beautiful shoulders. Asymmetry - another clever way to attract interest to the image as a whole, without emphasizing the hips. When the weather permits, feel free to wear asymmetrical cut skirts and blouses.

*️⃣Choose the ideal color shades
When choosing the shade of pants, avoid horizontal, geometric, floral, and animal prints, give preference to monochrome or laconic fabrics. You can also visually reduce the volume by playing with shades - for pants or skirts choose any color, but it should be darker than its upper part.

If you have wide hips and a triangle figure, you need to balance your silhouette with a voluminous top that will emphasize both the beauty of your hips and your waist. Got it? Great! Now, I will explain in detail how to achieve this effect and what you can use to create stylish outfits.

Dresses with voluminous tops
Dresses with voluminous jewelry and elements in the upper part of the body are the easiest way to balance wide hips. Such models immediately highlight the decollete zone, increase the chest, and emphasize the waist. But I advise you to choose models with jewelry and accessories on the chest, not on the sleeves, so your figure will look more balanced.

Wrap dresses
Dresses on the smell work in the same way - they emphasize the neckline and waistline but at the expense of the cut. It is thanks to the “smell” that the top becomes visually bulkier and the silhouette is leveled. If you want to enhance the effect, look at dresses with prints. For example, floral or animal prints.

A-line silhouette
Dresses for wide hips should be flared to the bottom. Such a silhouette hides excess volume and helps to make the figure more feminine. Dresses of this cut are considered girlish, but they can afford young women. Do you want to look stylish? Take a closer look at dresses made of airy fabric. Such models will not encircle the figure, but the shape will not be able to hold. Therefore, combine them with light T-shirts or sweaters. Choose sleeveless dresses and complement them with a bottom layer. Fashion trends encourage unexpected combinations.

What other advantages does the A-silhouette have? This style of dress goes to all girls. It can be worn by both ladies of small stature and long-legged beauties. The length of the mini is out of fashion, so when buying an outfit, pay attention to the elongated models of dresses. If you purchase a dress for the winter period, then buy it a size larger. In this case, you will have the opportunity to make the image layered by wearing a thin sweater under the dress.

Midi skirt
If you have wide hips, remember, a mini skirt is not your option. Your skirt length is knee-length, or better below. In addition, a skirt that hides the hips must necessarily sit on the waist. And if you don't want to draw attention to the problem area, then refuse knitted pencil skirts, tutu skirts, lace skirts, feather skirts, and variants with large prints.

Jackets with shoulder pads
How else can you visually expand your top? Wear jackets, shirts, and jackets with shoulder pads. The silhouette will also even out and become more organic. For extra emphasis on the hips and waist, you can add a wide belt and drape the jacket with it - a good combination to balance the figure.

Straight jeans
Straight jeans with a high waist will visually elongate your legs, emphasize your buttocks, and make your whole body look slimmer and more beautiful. The only caveat - jeans should not be colored and printed. Bright accent on the contrary will increase the hips, so it is better to choose classic blue, white, or blue denim.

Jeans in dark colors
The first thing you need to add to your closet without fail is black or dark blue jeans. The material should not be thin, but dense, holding its shape well. The ideal style - is straight or flared, without unnecessary decoration, scuffs and holes, and plenty of pockets. You especially need to watch that there are no extra elements in the thighs, also this area should not differ in the color of the denim, otherwise, you will attract unnecessary attention to it. Dark jeans will not only help to solve the problem with the hips but also help out in a standard situation called “I have nothing to wear”. They are perfectly combined with any top and shoes, so they will be a real wand when composing the image.

The classic flared pants
This trend quickly returned to us from the 90s and just as quickly won the love of modern fashionistas. However, girls with full hips often bypass them, perplexed as to how wide pants will help to eliminate the main problem of their figure. As in many other situations, here it is important to simply choose the right style.

We advise you to pay attention to classic pants with an undervalued waist without pockets and decorations. Note that they should not too much tighten your hips. But it is also wrong to choose a model that will sit like a sack of potatoes - you should look for a golden mean. Choose pants with a ditch that starts from the hip - in this case, you will achieve the opposite effect and successfully hide the “bottom ninety”.
