How to Make Your Bum Look Smaller

One of the biggest fashion and beauty concerns amongst women is how to make their bottom look smaller. The age-old question of "does my bum look big in this?" is still uttered everywhere by women all over the world. There are simple changes you can make to your wardrobe if you want to make your bum look smaller.

Trousers and jeans.

Stay away from skinny-legged trousers if you want your bum to look smaller, the lack of volume at your feet will draw the attention upwards to your thighs and bum making them look out of proportion.

Try bootlegs, these will even out the proportions of your bottom and also make your thighs look smaller, if you're feeling really brave you could even try flares!

If you absolutely must have skinny jeans or trousers, tuck them into knee high chunky boots.

Waists:

Steer clear of high waistbands, these will emphasise the length of your bottom and cling to the width. Hipsters are a better choice as they will appear to halve the size of your bottom. Make sure that they are not too low as this will make your bum look bigger.

Tops:

Many people think that if you simply cover the bum with fabric then that makes it look smaller, that's not true. If you add another layer of fabric to that area, it's going to make it look thicker. Some people still insist on tying their cardigans around their waist adding another 2 inches of bulk to their backside!

Choose tops that cover the waistband of your trousers or jeans, avoid short tops.

If you want to wear a longer top, make sure that it is well fitting and a fairly thin fabric, remember, the less bulk on this area the better.

Belts:Avoid tight waisted belts; opt for lower slung belts as these will make your bum look smaller and higher.
