It is the oldest advice to dress in black to minimize any part of your body. However, extremes of anything can harm you more so even while you are dressing in black, try to avoid wider necklines as it will widen your bust line more.
Try to wear the tailored dresses whether it is suits, skirts, or pants.
Choose dresses that have a sweetheart or V neckline, which can lengthen the vertical line of the top portion.
Purchase tops that fit your chest and have darts put in underneath the bust line so it will fit your waist.
Try to avoid high-waisted pants as it can accentuate your chest all the more. Since you have a heavy top, you needn’t be heavy all together. If you want to hide the heavy part, you can accentuate your curves very well.
Avoid tops that have sleeves to the bust level, as they would help in holding the eye at that level.
You can go for low waisted pants, as it will accentuate more of your hip area rather than the bust. This can lengthen the body in appearance. Boot cut or flared pants help in balancing the top and bottom.
When you are considering a suit, try a suit jacket that cinches in at the waist and doesn’t have a large lapel, it just adds weight to the top portion of your body.
Remember a slight flare at the bottom of a skirt or pant outfit will balance the top with the bottom. The skirt hemline should be at or below your knee to slim and lengthen your look.
Avoid wearing lightweight fabrics, large patterns, or shirts with pockets. You can make a cool outfit by wearing a light colored shirt with smaller patterns on a well-fitted camisole.
Lycra is best fabric that you can use which will stretch and do not allow the clothing to cling onto your body.
