Curves and Stripes

Who says stripes makes you appear bigger? It is a well-discussed subject, does or doesn’t the stripe make you appear bigger?

Different research came up with opposite results, one researcher claims the “horizontal” stripe makes you look thinner while others tell us we should avoid the horizontal stripe.

The more the better

Curved celebs show us they’re not afraid of wearing stripes, so why are we?

I believe in proportions. In order to wear horizontal stripes in a way that is flattering, we simply must break up the stripes! Wearing a striped dress? Throw on a blazer to break up the eye line a bit! Or, pair a striped top or skirt with a solid piece, to create more of a “colorblock” effect.

Horizontal, vertical or diagonal it doesn’t matter with every body shape fits a striped print.
