In an age where size is just another number, celebrate your shape whether you are curvy or athletic. For those who are well endowed there’s no need to hide in unflattering outfits, instead make fashion trends work for you and look your chic best. After all, Vidya Balan, Sonkshi Sinha and Kim Kardashian highlight their curves and are rarely seen looking anything but stylish.  Still not convinced? Follow these easy tips from Vogue.in to help you look fashionable and feel good about yourself.

The Dress: Ditch your blacks and replace them with solid coloured knee-length shift dresses. Opt for ones which have details at the waist to help you draw attention to your curve (giving you the perfect hourglass shape). Vogue.in recommends the Vera shift dress from Joana Duncia – the wide neckline will balance the look.

The Separates: If dresses aren’t your go – to fashion fix, we suggest opting for pencil skirts instead. Keep the rest of the look simple with a blouse that has minimal detail (this will help avoid drawing too much attention to your breasts), Vogue.in recommends the silk top from Paul and shark. Slip on a jacket such as this tone tone blazer from Zara that ends at the waist for a professional twist on this look.

The Accessories: Avoid wearing chunky jewellery as this will add bulk to your upper half. Opt instead for a thin gold necklace such as this love letter charm from Toniq. When it comes to shoes, high heels will add the illusion of longer legs and a pert derriere. Vogue.in recommends the trendy mary janes or T-bar sandals.
