What can I wear on my bottom half? Hourglass

stylehelp12 · 26/05/2024 16:32

I have come to the conclusion only wrap dresses suit my figure. I look awful in all jeans and shorts can just about get away with an a line or straight skirt but am really struggling with what to wear on my bottom half with tshirts for casual wear

I've bought a floaty white maxi skirt which looks ok but again it's a skirt!

Can someone help? I need ideas for type and length of trousers or jeans please

I'm a size 14

Have a look at Abercrombie and Fitch 'Curve Love' range. The Sloane trousers look amazing and they're cut for wider hips and narrower waist. They're my favourite trousers.

I'm an hourglass and find wide leg jeans / trousers very flattering as long as I tuck in my t-shirt to show my waist

Oh and the high waisted ones that actually sit on my waist are the most flattering

Agree with @Uncooperativefingers .
Wide leg, high waist, and a fitted top tucked in to show off waist.

I’m a size 14 hourglass and like tapered trousers. Slightly shorter than normal tops suit me too so the curve from waist to hip is shown and not hidden.

Agree too!

Lucy and Yak Addison jeans are brilliant for this. Proper high waisted and so much hip and arse space!! They've done loads of colours and patterns over the years and are really well made so I usually get second hand. Not very summery though!
