Tucking shirt in

6 replies

Can anyone recommend a solution to the tucking shirt in look but hide the belly bump? It's not massive but a post baby bulge. I love the look as it's so smart but from the side view, it's doesn't look good.
Thanks

The only think I know of to hide a belly is Spanx

Wear a blazer.

Is there a type of trousers that looks better with a tucked-in shirt?

I do a half tuck which disguises any bumps

Flat fronted trousers with side zip - jeans and trohsers with front zip always stick out. Make sure the trousers have e!astane too.
Spanx like knickers
Lightweight blouse - not thick cotton.
Half tucked in, half not
if want to tuck all in, consider cutting off the bottom section of the blouse a little so there's not as much fabric to bunch up - obviously wouldn't be able to wear it any other way again though.

That point about side zips is a good one - so much more flattering. Cos do good ones - they’re stretchy so comfortable but hold your tummy. H&M did have some too. And oversized shirts can be good if you balance our a skinny bottom half. These shirts from Uniqlo are good for that.
