Jumpers for hourglass size 16.

5 replies

I'm a size 16 hourglass (with a very wobbly tum!), and have recently bought wide leg trousers which I love. But what jumpers can I wear with these when I have boobs? I'm also 5'8" so a bit taller and lots of jumpers are too short, I hate my tummy!
Any tips?

I love a ribbed v neck in dark colours, thick enough to hold me in but not si bulky it adds inches!

It’s finding them, especially ones that aren’t too short. Plus v neck can be cold (wimp)!

I find this style quite long in the body - the neckline is low enough to not make you look too heavy on bust but still warm!
I find the side slits mean it doesn’t cling to stomach area
I would consider sizing up to XL as cashmere always seems to come up smaller

Sounds like we have very similar shape and size. I find this jumper a good fit in a 'Large'
