Tips to look slimmer in Kurtis
Yes, all of us know the sayings of the Instagram world – ‘We should feel beautiful the way we are’ and ‘We should feel comfortable in our skin’. And we ARE beautiful the way we are! We are smart and kind and honest; and looking slimmer or chubbier does not add to how we are from inside.
And hey, who would give up pizzas and chhole bhature and laddus to look slim always (is your mouth watering yet?). But do you disagree that there are some days when you feel that life would have been a little better if you looked slimmer in that kurti you put on for office? Well, if you are part of that self-critical gang, you need to read this. Now.
These are some tips and tricks to look slimmer in kurtis:
- Flare’s the answer…
We all can relate to times when we have a food baby (biryani for lunch?) and the last thing we want to wear is a body fitting top or kurti. Your best bet in those times is a flared kurti like Anarkali! The flow of the kurti will not cling to your body making you look slimmer and comfortable. An Anarkali also makes us look feminine and pretty, and that’s what you need on some days!
- Choose the right Fabrics…
This may come as a shocker but the right choice of fabric for the kurti can make you look way leaner. Choose flowy fabrics like satin, light cotton or georgette which will move easily, fall freely and not be a body-hugging material. Avoid materials like lycra or silk, which can stick to the body.
- Ethnic jackets for the win (and the swag)…
Put on a thin and colorful long ethnic jacket if you want to hide flabs around waistline. It instantly makes you look dressed up too. And why just limit your creativity to an ethnic jacket? Put on a denim jacket on your kurti and carry it off with that swag!
- Let dark colors be your friend…
If you want to look slimmer in kurtis, dark colors can do the trick. Choose colors like black, dark blue, wine, emerald green or any other from the dark palette and see how magically it makes you look thinner and gorgeous. These colors act as a good camouflage for the bulges you want to hide.
- Footwear to the rescue…
A little extra height can surely do no harm! Heels are a recommended footwear option if you want to look slimmer. And who doesn’t like to flaunt a nice pair of heels and carry it off like a boss?! Additionally, wearing the same color of heels as your bottom can make you even taller and slender.
- Accessorize and Experiment…
Accessorizing is experimenting, showing your talent and having fun – all at the same time! And when you have an aim to look slimmer, you can go all in and explore so many alternatives.
If you own a baggy kurti which makes you look big, put on a stylish belt on the waist. A choker can emphasis the collar bones in a beautiful way. A chunky bangle can make your wrists look slimmer. A scarf can help if you are struggling with a bigger bust. Dangler earrings can make your face look less chubby.
