3 Fun Styles That Define Your Waist

1. The Wrap Dress: a flattering silhouette, whether it’s a true or faux wrap. The overlap of fabrics is often topped with a sash that cinches the waist. Try them in solids or prints.

2. Belts: adding a belt to your natural waist is probably the easiest way to define your waist and draw attention to your smallest area. It’s also a great way to add a pop of color to your outfit!

 3. Ruching: This gathered look is a great camouflager, and adds visual interest. Ruching defines shape and it’s beautiful too.
