Go for bold colors and patterns. Don’t over-do it to the point of being garish, but look for eye-catching colors and provocative patterns to keep all eyes up top. Look for horizontal necklines. They draw the eye while also slimming the waist. Try bell sleeves. They widen your shoulder line to make a clean line with your larger backside, balancing your silhouette. Stock up on necklaces and scarves. These are two of the most valuable accessories you have for dealing with a bigger behind. Necklaces (especially larger ones) will keep eyes on your top and neckline while scarves add width to your shoulders.
The A-line dress is praised for its ability to hide any behind. Find more than a couple that you like; if you can make them a part of your style, the A-line dress will be your best fashion friend. Buy slimming shapewear/underwear. These will slim your waist, butt, and thighs for an overall slighter look. You can wear a tank top or full body shaper to smooth back fat. Wear a bra of the correct size. If your fit is wrong, it may cause the back fat to bulge when it may not otherwise. Get fitted by a professional and opt for a smoothing bra. Pay attention to the types of fabrics you wear. A fitted knit will always show more of our lumps and bumps. Pick thicker fabrics to skim over your body. Vertical features such as zippers and pleats make the waist and backside appear slimmer. Look for tops with these qualities.
Find high-waisted shorts or pants for a classic look. The high-waist connects your butt to your waist to make it one seamless line, de-emphasizing your backside. When shopping for jeans you’ll want to look for anything “boot cut” or with flared legs. Don’t be anything bedazzled or with especially busy patterns, especially on the behind. You’ll looking for jeans to complement your behind, not draw attention to it.
For jeans, look for boot cut, carpenter, worker, and “relaxed-fit” jeans. This will sit more loosely on the waist and around the legs, which allow for straighter vertical line to your silhouette. For dressier pants, stay away from pleats. They draw the eye to your hips and can make your butt seem bigger than it is. Flat fronts are the way to go as they have a slimming effect around your waist.
Don’t confuse a tight with a good fit. An overly tight shirt will make your butt appear as though it’s sticking out. You want a shirt that doesn’t bloom or billow, but lies flat on your front and back.
Again, avoid any “slim” or “skinny” fits in button-down shirts. These will end up hugging your torso, making your butt look larger.
Squats are the go-to exercise for toning and shaping your butt. Fortunately squats are like many butt exercises, and require no equipment. You’ll need to work out your waist and legs as well as your butt for a balanced look. Look for exercises that targets groups of muscles for added efficiency.
