HIPS

If you're a hippy

• You will look hippier with straight skirts and pants.
• Blouse covering part of the hips from the rear is a very good camouflage.
• Avoid details in the pocket.
• Back pockets make you look round.
• Pants is not advisable but covering them with a vest or jacket or an attractive top worn outside the pants offers some very good remedy.
• The shorter you are the better to use softer fabric.
• Pleated pants or pleated skirts, big plaids or horizontal patterns are not good.
• Avoid puffy skirts and pants.

If your hips are an hourglass figure.

• Velvet-like blends are for you.
• If you think, you need more hips wear skirts with graceful fullness, or pants, which fit sleekly without any excess fabric.
• Thin hips can use the camouflage of over shirt or open shirt jacket.
• If you have no rear end, back pockets are very good.
• Skirts are more flattering than pants.
• Padding on your hips and your rear are a must to a perfect silhouette.
• Padding can be reasonably purchased.
