The Gina Fashion Spy… SEVEN WAYS TO A WAIST

This season (and next) is all about the waistline. So we show you the middle way with a series of ingenious Figure- Fixers!

The Cropped Jacket

An abbreviated jacket needn’t fall short on style. Exceed expectations with a cropped jacket partnered with a midi skirt, tucked in shirt and a wide leather belt – a winning formula that is greater than the sum of its parts!!

High-Waisted Jeans

True Blue – seek out immaculately cut raw denim, but keep it high rise. A waistband that sits above the hips is the nippy shape to strive for now. The news in denim is non stretch, anti-fit with the cuffs rolled up.

Play with Proportion

A billowing dress with kimono sleeves accentuates the waist. Clinch with a decorated belt to draw in eyes.

The OBI Belt – Sash style

Turn boxy jackets and cardigans ultra feminine via a wraparound obi (sash) belt. Black on white makes a waist even waspier.

High- Waisted A-Line Skirt

All hail the high-waist midi.  Finish off with a wide waistband belt and all eyes can only turn to the middle….

Eye Trickery with Color Blocking

Gravitate towards dresses that outline hips with a darker color. Your waist will immediately be highlighted in fabulous form.

Layer Up

An A-line skirt layered atop tailored trousers may seem bulky, but pull up to your slightest point. Keep skirt and trousers tonal for the ultimate in streamlined dressing.
