The hourglass figure has wider hips and bust and a defined waist, often associated with the curves of beauties like Sophia Loren or Marilyn Monroe. However, you can still have an hourglass figure even if your belly is a bit big, as long as the two sides of the waist are two inward curves. To choose an outfit that suits an hourglass figure, you need to choose a style that emphasizes the waist but does not increase the size of the hips. Then just know how to mix and match and you’ll have your favorite outfit!

Look for tops, jackets, and skirts that emphasize the waist. Since the hourglass figure has the smallest waist, the dress that is tied at the waist will show off the curves perfectly. Especially tops and skirts wrapped or tied at the waist, preferably trench coats, skirts, and peplum tops. [1] X Research Source
- A wide-neck top that hugs your figure, boxed with pants or a high-waisted skirt is also a great way to emphasize the waistline. Just make sure the bra fits comfortably around the bust.

Avoid wearing loose or tight clothing. If you wear loose, loose clothes, your whole body will sink in it and make you baggy, not sexy. On the other hand, clothes that are too tight will look uncomfortable and draw attention to areas that are slightly overweight. [2] X Research Source
- Instead, look for clothing that hugs you well; It will help you look more comfortable and feel more confident.
- If you have a problem with areas of your body that need to be slimmed down, consider wearing tight-fitting – but not too tight – made of supportive materials like knits, denim, stretch.

Choose V-neck, wide-neck, boat-neck tops to accentuate your bust. Whether you like to show off your bust or want to be discreet, if you have a large bust, it’s best to choose a top with a neckline that creates an angle or curve. For example, a V-neck will make your bust appear smaller because its sharp angle draws attention down to your waist. [3] X Research Sources
- A crew-neck top is a top with a cut-out collar that extends from shoulder to shoulder, so it shows off your graceful collarbones.
- The wide neckline creates an angle for the face and shows the collarbone, but does not reveal the cleavage like a V-neck shirt.
- Avoid high-collar tops like t-shirts, turtlenecks, and round necklines that will make your breasts look bigger. [4] X Research Sources

Avoid clothes with lots of fabric at the hips or bust. Avoid lace or ruffles at the waist as well. Because your body already has curves, any extra detail on those parts will make you heavier, and the proportions of your body will be out of proportion. [5] X Research Sources
- An exception is the vertical lace on shirts, which can make the bust smaller.
- You should also avoid wearing horizontal stripes on the chest or hips, as they make those areas look larger.

Pro tip: Choose pants with diagonal pockets and avoid pants with straight pockets on the seam. Straight pocket pants when worn tend to be thrown in the front, creating an unsightly horizontal line. You can also choose pants without pockets for a more flattering figure.

Use a belt to draw attention to your waist. If you wear a dress, or a shirt or jacket that is somewhat loose, you can add emphasis to your waist with a belt. Depending on your style, you can choose a thin glitter belt for a flowing skirt, or a large belt for a stylish trench coat. For the most impact, wear the belt right at the smallest part of your waist. [6] X Research Sources
- If you have a big belly, the belt may accentuate it more than the curve of your waist. In that case, consider emphasizing the sides of your waist by wearing a short jacket or skirt and high-waisted pants.

Wear well-fitting underwear. When you have a lot of curves, it’s important to make sure your underwear fits properly and provides proper support. For example, bras should fit comfortably and lift breasts comfortably, straps should not be visible to the skin. If necessary, get a professional bra measurement at the store to find out exactly what size is right for you. [7] X Research Sources
- When choosing panties, choose seamless if you prefer pantyhose that cover the entire butt, which will help keep the seam of the panty under the dress. You can also wear loose pants to make sure there are no visible seams under your outfit.
Create a style for everyday wear

You can wear a body-hugging jersey t-shirt with bell-bottom jeans as a casual outfit. Jersey is a light and soft woven fabric, often used to make t-shirts and other casual shirts. As long as your outfit fits properly, the jersey fabric will gently hug your body, keeping you cool and comfortable while still being flattering. Bell-bottom pants with a slight flare will help balance the curve of the hips. [8] X Research Sources

Wear a mini skirt with a fitted t-shirt if you want to show off your legs. If you love your beautiful legs and want them to be the highlight of your look, then wear a wide-neck t-shirt, mini skirt, and low-heeled sneakers. The t-shirt will be discreet enough on the top to accentuate the exposed legs underneath, giving you a playful and eye-catching look. [10] X Research Source
- For an extra touch, you can choose a t-shirt with an accent detail on the shoulders, like rhinestones or lace trim.

Choose tops and peplum dresses to emphasize the waist.

The peplum outfit itself features an hourglass shape that will flatter your curves perfectly. [11] X Research Source

Try wearing an empire dress to show off your best figure. Empire dresses have the waistline pushed up to the bust, emphasizing the narrowest part of the hourglass figure. The rest of the skirt hangs loosely around the belly and hips, so this silhouette is perfect for an hourglass figure. [12] X Research Source

Wear an event-style jumpsuit with a tight waistband that’s both pretty and elegant. If you wear a jumpsuit with light materials such as chiffron, lace, silk crepe, it is both stylish like a dress and as convenient as wearing pants.

If you are brave, you can choose a tight skirt. Skirts are tight to the body, so it’s a great way to show off your hourglass figure.

Wear a tailored blouse that fits snugly for a bright, luxurious look. If you wear a tailored blouse, your bust will be comfortable while still showing off your waist.
