Do you tuck your top in?

[DollyPlop]

I think I’ve worked out why I always look frumpy, I never tuck shirts/blouses/t-shirts etc in … I worry Ill look fat but I’m probably making myself look fatter having all my tops untucked? lumberjack shirt in the jeans

do you tuck or not tuck?

There is a critical point up to where it looks better / sharper, and is more slimming. Some days, I don’t think it is, though (so wear something else).

I generally prefer a French tuck. It varies from person to person but I definitely feel frumpy if I don't tuck in a bit (unless it's something boxy in style that hits at my waistband). But a full tuck also feels frumpy on me.

Yes I generally do tuck tops in

No. But I'm fat with a bit of a sticky out belly, so it looks awful on me. If I was skinny i would!

Depends on the top.

In my thin youth, I tucked. Now, approaching middle-age and with a no longer flat stomach, I don't tuck. Maybe it looks sloppy, but I'm more comfortable this way. With some tops, I might tuck, but it's rare.

Always tuck!

I haven’t tucked for decades. It looks hideous on me.

I live in a cold and draughty house.
Autumn, winter and spring = tucked in (and for a large chunk of that, a vest as well).

Depends on the top and, most importantly, the bottoms! I have some jeans where it looks absolutely awful.

If I do I quite often go for the French tuck (just tucked in at the front) although last time I did this DH thought I’d done it by accident after going to the loo and tried to untuck me 🤣

Mostly tuck in but some of my tops look better untucked

Never tuck. No one needs to see my belly

No, because I am older, tall, big boned and long bodied and fairly straight so it looks awful, I tend to wear tunics as they suit my shape best, I never used to wear tucked in tops when I was younger either

I hate tucking because I don’t like having to wear a belt or tops riding up so I wear bodysuits instead with a button down or jacket or I just knot a button down loosely under my belt line.

If I was thinner I would tuck.

I always do a French tuck unless I'm wearing a very high-waisted skirt or trousers, in which case I'll go for a full tuck.

The French tuck looks much more stylish than all in or all out IMO.

Tucking gives a visual effect and makes you look slimmer. Your tummy is visible whether you tuck in or not. I think that you should always tuck in and use a belt as well...it is visually much more pleasing.
If you are worried of your middle aged belly, than decrease the effect with a not too short jacket. It works.
Also, all dresses should have a belt, unless you are a waif...

No because I’m overweight. If I was slim I would.

Tucked in.
Things look frumpy otherwise.

I'm a tucker

It’s always when people are insecure about their weight and or middle when they don’t tuck in, but honestly a baggy top which isn’t tucked in isn’t actually hiding anything and just look sloppy. More often than not it would be better if they tucked.

I don’t really do it, but I like front tucked and back not. I don’t like left front in and right front out, I think it looks scruffy and half dressed.

I'm plus size and I tuck. I look more put together

When I was 22stone, I didn't tuck. Now I am 10 stone, I tuck.

I probably would have looked better tucking before rather than leaving loose but there's no way I would have.

I think I look worse tucked in, especially in jeans, it just draws attention to a part I'd rather disguise.
