The human body has so many different shapes and forms and that’s why it is so amazing and unique. So, with that in mind, not all types of clothes suit each and every body. In order to find what looks best on you, you need to try different things and see what sticks. Not only that, but you can reuse pieces that you’re not using anymore and make something completely different.

Now I’ve Seen Everything thinks that there are many simple yet smart ways to dress according to your body’s needs and we are about to show you 10 of them.

How to dress:

  • If you want to shift the focus away from the gap between your calves, you can stick to straight or wide-leg trousers and jeans with a boot-cut or flare. But avoid capri pants, stretchy pants, or skinny jeans.
  • Trumpet skirts are also a good choice because they flare out at the hem. Straight, tight-fitted, and mini skirts, in general, aren’t a good option. You can also opt for tulle, flowing, mid-calf skirts, and maxis with slits.
  • Surprising as it may sound, drawing more attention to the parts you love most may become a life-saver. For example, you can highlight the upper half of your body with makeup, a fun hairstyle, and accessories, such as a lovely scarf, earrings, or a hat to shift the focus away from your legs. You can also go for knee-high boots.
