Pointers (Continued)
Overall Heaviness: The hype is completely true: black is a very slenderizing color. Dark, solid colors tend to be quite slimming in general, but this certainly doesn’t mean that larger girls should stay away from bright or light shades. Loud prints should be avoided at all costs, however, as should oversize “tent-like” clothes, which make it obvious that you’re trying to hide something. Opt instead for well-fitting, tailored looks that cling in all the right places-but just not too tightly. While we’re on the subject of bodies, the Internet is also a great resource for those with special size issues that can make shopping a nightmare.
