So is your belly a little larger than you would like? Lucky for you, it’s easy to cover it up with the clothes.

First, look for tops that float away from your body. Generally, an ompier seam (one that goes under the bust) and flairs out is the perfect top for someone with a little large tummy. The fitted area at the top will emphasize the smallest part of your body and the bottom will cover what you don’t want people to see. The Jade Top by Hype and the Beaded 2 Layer Top by Interlud (more of a bubble which also works) both offer this type of coverage.

Another great option is a dress. Again, if you are heavier in the mid-section stay away from straight cuts. Look for a good a-line (will also camouflage a big tush) that will make your top look smaller. Ompier seams are also great as they generally will float away at the tummy area. Check out the 2 Pocket Dress By Hanna or the Ivy Dress By Butterfly Dropout for examples.
