Q : I’ve got really wide hips. What can I wear to disguise my heavy bottom?

A : The key here is to steer clear of pieces with protruding details such as pockets, zippers and buttons set at your hips which add unnecessary bulk to your silhouette. Here are three tips to help create slimmer-looking hips:
♥ Tip 1 :
Keep your look lean and sleek by choosing a flattering A-line dress, skirt or tailored shorts which creates a slimming effect on your lower half.
