WAIST:

If you have a small waist, you’re the lucky one who can have fun with belts. But if your tiny waist is in the middle of an hourglass figure — with large bust and hips — take care not to look too nipped-in or you will accentuate those other features. A gentle taper, with perhaps a tie belt, is your best look.

If your waist is wide, there’s no point in calling attention to it. Use belts judiciously, keeping them narrow and the same color or fabric as the garment. Or simply have a seam at the waist with no belt. Look for princess styles or high- or low-waisted dresses. Make use of the no-waist look with an overblouse or perhaps a second layer such as a loose vest or sweater.

A short-waisted woman is also wise to use a narrow self belt or no belt. If your waist is high, you need to leave as much room as possible between your bust and your waistline. For you, a gentle taper under the bustline is effective in lengthening your midriff. When you wear separates, choose your belt to match your top, rather than your skirt or pants. This trick adds length to your waist. Skirts and pants cut without a waistband are your best bet.

For a long waist, do the opposite. Unless your waist is large, use wide belts that match the color of your skirt, thus bringing the eye up. Choose skirts and pants with waistbands, including high-waisted bands. You can also cheat a little with your waist seams, raising them half an inch or so above your real waistline.
