There are some tips about how to choose dress one best fit the bottom heavy women.

1) Little black dress - It skims over the lower half of the body . A fitted halter or strapy or strapless silhouette or knotted front helps to trim upper body.Fuller skirts is very flattering for bottom-heavy figure types.Cute little black dress goes well on every occasion from casual to formal. Team-up with a pair of platform heels or strapy flat sandals .

2) Wear fitted suit and skirt. If you are bottom heavy Slim skirt trims down the bottom.Find a blazer that hits slightly above or at waist level and Avoid that hits the widest point of your hips.

3) Avoid bottoms with lot of pockets . Also be beware of trousers with side pockets, which just bring more attention to your hip area. Don’t wear anything too clingy on your lower half.

4)Avoid too skinny and tight trousers which emphasis on lower bottoms and makes it look heavy.Invest in a great pair of boot-cut or wide leg pants.

5) Dress in A-line skirts and dresses that rest around the knee. Empire-waist gown works great for the pear figure.

6) Look for tops,shirts with wide, deep V-necklines that add volume to the bust with a snug fitting empire waist. Add princess sleeves for a more dramatic effect to your look.Look for waist-defining tops, such as belted or cinched styles that show off your defined waist else team up with a belt to make waist more defined.Shirts with a fitted waist balance your lower half.

7) Wear darker bottoms and avoid patterns on the bottom. Also play with prints, colors, and patterns on the top to balance it with heavy bottom.

8) 3/4 sleeves or puff-sleeves help to take attention higher up the body too, and you will notice there is no detail at the wrists so as not to draw attention to the hips and thighs

9) A structured shirt-dress with sleeves is great for pear shape and flatters most body shapes particularly pear-shaped ones.

10) Don't wear a teeny-weeny bikini bottom or boy shorts.Do choose high-cut legs on your swimsuit with graphic interest vertical stripes, color blocking .
