  • Fashion do's and don'ts for curvy women
Are you overweight? Is selecting the right outfit a challenge for you? Here is an expert who can guide you through the right wardrobe.
 
With the help of style editors of Navabi, a designer fashion brand which offers sizes 14 to 30, one can find out the “Do’s and Don’ts” while dressing up:
 
Do:
 
* Soft fabrics such as jersey, cotton, flannel or cashmere
 
* Figure-hugging shirts and blouses
 
* Narrow V-necklines
 
* Low-cut and single-breasted jackets
 
* Straight-cut, wide trousers
 
* Pencil skirts with a high waistline
 
* Shift dresses and dresses with an asymmetric cut
 
* Don’t:
 
* Shiny fabrics such as satin, as well as thick materials such as velvet
 
* Double-breasted jackets and coats
 
* Playful details such as ruffles or flounces in the bust area
 
* Skinny jeans
 
* Horizontal Stripes and halter neck tops
 
* Empire style
 
Special tip for accessories
 
* Loosely draped scarves can skilfully conceal a large chest. 
 
*But be careful with accessories like brooches and short necklaces - they can make an ample bosom look even bigger.
