There is absolutely nothing I would change on your videos. Each one of them is well thought out and has the right amount of information. It is the only channel I found so far where the youtuber is not “throwing” videos at us just to meet the weekly goal, but carefully produce single videos that actually help us. Thank you for sharing your passion for fashion with such dedication and respect to your viewers. Saludos desde Argentina 😊

@wickedfiress 6 лет назад

@purplesky001 6 лет назад

I agree too. I used to pretend that I didn't need to think about these things, that it was silly or superficial, but it was really a cover, because I didn't know what looked good on me, how to tell. Everyone else seemed to pick up these things without blinking, but I never could. I did the konmari method a little while ago, to try and get my house in order. Everything that I picked up that I loved and kept, somehow seems to follow the 'rules' that Justine mentions. Every time she talks about something, I realise WHY I kept something. My clothes are cool toned like me. I like empire waisted maxi dresses, jacquard knit A-line dresses, and long, flowy, assymetric cardigans that I wear open, because I have PCOS and my weight gathers around my tummy area. I mostly like things that are fitted to show my waist, because I'm an hourglass, but I also love a boxy jumper to chill out in. All the purses I kept were the ones that were made well. The red lipstick I love is blue based. I love the fabrics I chose because they are soft, and I have fibromyalgia. Every time I see a video, I get more confident in the choices that i have already made, and in the shopping that I do. It's so easy now to look at something and think 'no, that's too warm', or 'this purse is not well-made', or 'that style wouldn't suit my shape'. It takes a lot of pondering away.

@jenniferblohmichael97 6 лет назад

Coley Greystone there's really nothing to get ! it's putting on clothes that make you look and feel good. It's cooler when you can do it for cheap ! I mean cause who can't look good in a $1,000 outfit ? But I guess my half German half Italian heritage helps ! And my stylish mom, but who was Catholic so she kept it reighned in. That might not make much sense but in the 70s.......

@azuraannette6707 6 лет назад

I've seen a lot of people complaining about the inclusion of the Empire silhouette. It may not work for all body shapes trying to camouflage a tummy, but it's one of my favorite for me. As a plus hourglass, it highlights my waist while downplaying my lower tummy. On the contrary, anything tending towards boxy or trapeze just makes me look wider. Not every trick will work for every body type.

@amycortez3289 5 лет назад

Azura Annette Thanks for this comment. I’ve been going bananas trying to figure out how to flatter that same figure. I refer to myself as hourglass from the front, apple from the side.

@PotterSpurn1 4 года назад

@@amycortez3289 You can;t be two body shaped. If you look hourglass from the front you are hourglass. If you stick out a bit around the middle from the side view you are just a bit overweight in that area. A lot of hourglasses have rounded tummies. An apple has no waist at all from the front (or nothing that could be defined as a waistline).

@sarahluvburkhardt5755 2 года назад

Agreed! Same body shape and empire dresses look so good on me and I feel good in them. I normally only wear them in the summer but I’ve been looking for some on sale that I can wear this fall/winter with a blazer and boots. The ones I own now look great with my blazers in terms of fit but they don’t match….they are too “summery” looking. Boxy clothing makes me look like a extra wide box. It’s been a little frustrating because it seems like a lot of shirts and sweaters being sold now are boxy and cropped.

@recoveringsoul755 2 года назад

I'm more an apple and gain weight first in my tummy, I love the empire styles for tops and dresses. I really can't wear any dress off the rack if it has a belt or built in waistline, because am tall (about 5'10") and the waistbands hit me across lower ribcage or even across the bust. I'm also long waisted. I can't even zip up those dresses, and knee length items are 4-5 inches above my knees. I have to do long tops with skirts, or empire or a-line things.

Shawnna von Blixen - I'm short too, but Justine is right. Try slightly over sized (like just one size) in a flowy fabric with wedges or heels and it works. I did this after my stomach surgeries and it really does do the trick.

@adbreon 6 лет назад

There is a Japanese fashion trend with oversized clothing that looks fine on short women. It involves a good amount of layering

@desiree2086 6 лет назад

There is a bit oversized and extremely oversized. I'm not super short, neither long, but I have short legs so if I cross the line from a bit oversized to "too oversized" I look ridiculous too. Maybe you can also find something that is a little bit oversized. Not too much. In a chiffon fabric per example and with nice heels.

@Patti-1962 6 лет назад

You are now my official hero. I am 4'11" tall and 55. I am the woman who carries weight in the middle of my body but has killer legs. Unfortunately, six years ago I had to go on daily steroids for a life threatening autoimmune disease. And, BOOM, my body changed overnight. I grew a "spare tire" around my middle and my breasts grew to a DD. One of my main problems health wise is chronic pelvic pain. So, I can no longer wear pants that zip and snap. I was always a US size 8 and now I am a 12. So, I finally purged all my closet of all smaller sizes and have been buying clothes that match your video. The most important things for me are, 1. The dresses must be slightly above the knee. Midi dresses make me look like I have 5 inch legs. 2. Clothes must fit perfectly, NO tight clothes. This only makes me look bigger.3. Sleeve length is very important. When talking about a 3/4 length sleeve, there is a three inch difference between stylish and matronly. Long sleeves that need hemming always make you look frumpy.4. Always have a slight heal on my shoes. Very flat shoes make my look dumpy as well. I wear a lot of boots, wedges and kitten heals.. 5. MOST IMPORTANT... take care of your clothes. I hang dry everything, so they don't shrink. And I do not leave the house unless what I am wearing has been steamed or ironed. 6. Learn to do some simple alterations. I have been sewing for years, so I alter all my own clothes... unless it is too complicated. I am a good customer to my alterations person, and she treats me well. Everything I buy must be hemmed, including sleeves. Buttons must be moved, Spaghetti straps shortened. Consider alteration costs when purchasing the item. Like my leather coat, cost almost as much as I paid for it to have to altered. But, I have had it for 6 years now! I also try to bring in some "trendy" items each season, but I will never stop wearing clothes that are designed for my body type. Thank you so much, Justine, for addressing these issues. Women are looking for ways to dress better, and you are the answer!!!

@patriciasalem3606 6 лет назад

I totally agree. I'm just a smidge taller than you and the same age, also with autoimmune and pain issues. I have to be comfortable in my clothes (and I work at home most of the time, so I don't have to dress formally, just look nice if I pop out to the market for something). I'm moving in a couple of weeks, so it's a good time to purge my wardrobe of things I don't wear (usually because I feel ugly in them) and make a list of new things to watch for. I find it hard to buy inexpensive lines when you're short and not skinny. I keep my eyes peeled for more well made brands in thrift stores and got a sewing machine too, so I can adjust things in my closet to make them look more tailored in the right places. Nothing can be tight, except leggings with a dress or long top over them. No tucking in (so limiting, but it's a must). No clingy fabrics. No pants or shrinkable fabrics in the dryer. Flats are okay but have to be worn with the right pant line. Skirts/dresses must end around the knee or at the foot. Accessories go a long way in drawing the eye and concealing jiggly bits. Three quarter length sleeves have to be just the perfect length or my arms look like turkey drumsticks, although they are usually okay if I layer a slim long-sleeve t-shirt or blouse underneath to hide the line of bare skin. Tall, skinny gals: consider yourselves lucky!

@sunnydays5437 6 лет назад

Patricia Salem I'm in your group as well (age and shape) and I'm finding it so hard to dress nicely, it's hard because obviously don't want to dress to young but don't want to be a old lady yet !, Justine has some amazing tips but both of yours have also been helpful!.

@mehitabel1290 4 года назад

I'm sceptical about the idea of hiding a big gut under draped fabric. IME, the fabric simply catches over the protrusion and emphasises it. The very first style, with stiffer material which won't "grab" the gut, is by far the most workable. And I speak as one with some 50 years' experience of having a fat gut.

@flyingsnow00 4 года назад

imo, the issue is more complex , it depends also what the material is like, and how the cut is made to drape in a certain way (sometimes the brands are more interested into profits than doing a proper cut/ have a good material, and selling stuff for the "feminine" look, not because they can mask certain parts) ...also it's a pity many (if not most) brands are not interested in women over 30s (unless one keeps slim / skinny to fit the huge amount that is produced for younger women) ... also stiff material might come with strong shoulders and large sleeves , which will only add to a box-like look ... but indeed, getting the stiff items saves a lot of energy and frustration of wasting time & money (like buying the wrong stuff when too exhausted after a shopping session) ; also having them slightly fitted works to tame down the shapeless feeling. :-) Just a (long) thought.

@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195 4 года назад

Oh, agreed so much, if something is flowy, it just shows it even more for me. Especially when I am sitting down. Then I have to adjust it every while or so... It's not worth the effort. Also I have a large bust so anything without marked waist looks like a tent on me. Even when I didn't have a gut people would think I'm pregnant wearing anything empire waist and flowy 😁 I mean, I don't mind, it's just that here we are actually talking about not looking like that :D I found that a shirt or T shirt tucked in and a wide skirt at waist level work best for me in situations like these

You made me think of something that I sometimes do. I often wear a tank top with a flowy cardigan and then a nice long-ish scarf.

The funny thing about shapewear is that it just pushes fat from one area to another in my experience. Plus, it's highly uncomfortable. If you feel you 'need' it with modern clothes (as opposed to certain vintage that is designed to be worn with girdles, waspies, corsetry etc), perhaps it's a better idea to just lose a bit of weight healthily than cam yourself into sweaty, oppressive compression garments?

As a short and fat* woman the long and/or oversize tips don't actually work in my experience! The problem is basically 1. If you wear something oversize or long it just looks comical and like you're 5 and trying to wear your mom's clothes. 2. After a certain point there's no hiding that you're fat and dressing like you're trying to hide your body just draws attention it or worse it makes you feel like you are. Then there's the totally separate problem of not being able to find something "oversized" because you're already shopping at the very top of the store's line and there's no way in hell that you'll find something oversized. All of the other tips though will totally work if you're short and fat, A-line, flowy, and asymmetrical clothing is a blessing. *this is using "fat" as an honest description and is not meant to be derisive or offensive.

@stitchedwithcolor 5 лет назад

Yeah, i too have found that oversize dresses and loose tops are not as forgiving as they might seem. On a smaller breasted woman, i fear the dress/top may not lift away from the body enough to conceal much. On a much larger breasted woman, like me...well, i think it makes me took like all of that width is belly, not boob. And i can absolutely see how looser garments would make a smaller woman look like her clothes don't fit if they're not styled to fit close at least *somewhere* to play off the loose. I usually avoid wearing something loose on both top and bottom. Up 'til now, i just assumed that manufacturers intended looser dresses for slender women who can look good in almost anything and for larger women who (they assume?) have given up entirely. Maybe it's just the garments i've personally tried?

Thank you for this video!!!! I realized that advancing in age made my belly advanced as well. I’m already doing some of the things you discuss but since I’m also short at 5 feet flat. My fashion style is or rather had been a hit and miss thing sometimes. Leaving in Rome, Italy where fashion is pretty more on the trendy. Im purging my closet too after one of your video on capsule wardrobe. Thanks thanks thanks

@myrr4408 4 года назад

Agree with the fit and flare style. It really works for me and it is so comfortable. As for empire or bias cut, it's a complete no no for me. It'll look amazing if you have a lovely figure! But if you're trying to hide your tummy, then my experience is that this cut will only emphasise it! 😂

@gnarbeljo8980 3 года назад

You hit all my favorite tricks for this situation! I’d like to add that some brand make maternity topped versions of skinny jeans that are very comfortable to wear underneath a longer shirt, top or oversized sweater. Oh and cocoon-shaped garments can be very nice too, the same way as A-line ones! Btw your look is fab in this video, always loved bordeaux with gold on brunettes, especially for colder weather. I bet you’d look fantastic in petroleum blue as well with your eyes!

@treespeak2848 6 лет назад

Thank you for these great ideas! I would caution against an empire waste if you're recovering from pregnancy. There is often enough shape left for strangers to ask you when you're due. I've had this happen and it isn't fun.

@lanternaBGD 6 лет назад

I am so glad you mentioned Dries Van Noten. I learned about him many years ago when I was living in Holland and looking for some collections from less known designers to export. Some designers loved his work and introduced me to it. Since then I am following his work as much as I can as I am in completely different industry living in the city that loves casual more than anything else. It "hurts" my eyes often but it has its good sides too. You can literally go out in your pajamas and no one will notice or give you a strange look:))

Great video as usual! I love learning from you. You have made me much more aware of my own clothing! Another video idea for the future: Tipps for women with a bigger bust! I always struggle, especially in winter when it's getting cold! I am a quite petite woman with a small waist but a big bust which makes dressing really complicated as many clothes make me look 20 lbs heavier than I am (especially sweaters!) Maybe you could explain what clothes will flatter big breasts the best?

@justineleconte 6 лет назад

+Lichtumwoben thanks for the suggestion!

@flick4117 6 лет назад

I would like to add to this suggestion, could you do a video in where you explain how you can make a bust appear either Larger or Smaller as I have a problem on the opposite end of the spectrum with a very tiny bust.

@MsStash47 6 лет назад

If you're heavier in the midsection you might have larger breast as well and that makes empire waists tough as the line might not fall under the breast area, which makes for a poor fit.

@ritagoedecke6574 6 лет назад

Always inspired by you Justine, right to the point, great. Thank you.

@christinatalanda2320 6 лет назад

yes, Justine, I actually have 2 of the styles you mentioned and they work very well. the peplum and the ruffles. they really do slim me in the tummy area. always enjoy your videos :) !!!

@ronndayvoo 4 года назад

Empire waist combined with an A-Line silhouette makes it less full below the bust and avoids the maternity look, for me anyway.

@mnicolaidou 6 лет назад

I am so glad you give hiding ideas for us, the apples!!!! Regarding the empire dress, I love it, but I think it looks good only if you are pregnant or not a fat apple. If you have extra kilos it makes you look more fat. Am i right???

@purplesky001 6 лет назад

mnicolaidou depends on the fit. I'm an hourglass figure, so I find that flowy maxi dresses, with a not too tight band work better with an empire waist for me than something very structured and pleated that cuts off at the knee, 60s style. The latter makes me look pregnant for sure!

@lockergr 6 лет назад

Emma Jardine well I wouldn't consider someone with an hourglass figure being in need of tummy hiding. I think of oval figures as being the type that need tummy hiding.

@bobettemccann8497 6 лет назад

Thank you for this. I just came home from Paris. I was there 3 weeks, and I walked 5-6 miles a day. The walking kept my legs skinny but all of the weight I did gain ended up in my tummy. Your video came just in time :)

@Lady_Katie 6 лет назад

Merci beaucoup, Justine! I love your videos. Keep up the great work!

@nikabela 6 лет назад

I slightly disagree with some of these. Unless the material of the A-linee dress is very stiff, the first wind will make it "stick" on your tummy and make you look pregnant. Same goes to everything that is more fitted at the breats and oversized otherwise. I had this problem forever, and I bought recently an A-line skirt that has a sort of reversed peplum waistline, if that is a thing. I make a bow with the belt of the skirt and the above part is ruffled. It is a bit hard to describe. It is a game changer. The ruffle hides just the tummy. I also like to show a bit clevage, arms, or legs to draw away the attention from my midsection.

@nikabela 6 лет назад

something like this but only the upper part of the ruffle www.google.no/search?dcr=0&biw=360&bih=248&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=zOrsWd3XNcnm6ASnnJ3wBQ&sjs=3&q=reversed+peplum+waistline+skirt&oq=reversed+peplum+waistline+skirt&gs_l=mobile-gws-img.3...21005.32663..32930.......824.7041.30j23j2j0j1j0j1............mobile-gws-wiz-img.....3..0j35i39j0i67j0i10i30j0i30j0i19j0i10i19j0i8i30i19j30i10.4Sw7icCS5Cc%3D#imgrc=JMznB0V1TefKWM:

@jeanne_guitton 6 лет назад

I once wore an empire dress because my tummy wasn't back to flat three months after the birth of my little one. You wouldn't believe the number of people who took the opportunity to congratulate me that the next one was already on the way :-)! So I decided to a) lose weight and b) never wear empire dresses again. Ever :-).

@lidiagospodinova1344 5 лет назад

@eocs5285 6 лет назад

Hi Justine, sometimes when concealing the torso tends to make the eyes focus on the bust area instead. What if you’re also a bit heavy on the bust. What’s a good cut to keep you look slimmer. Like an A line won’t necessarily work because that makes you even top heavier. Thoughts?

@justineleconte 6 лет назад

someone else already asked today... I'm thinking of doing a video on styling for "larger busts". Any specific questions/issues you would like to see me tackle?

@eocs5285 6 лет назад

Oh lovely! You replied! ☺️ Perhaps how to show off your asset but in a classy way. And how to conceal as well when you don’t want to highlight it. Or how to make your body look proportioned even if you’re not, short legs, tall, long torso, short torso etc. thanks Justine! ☺️ I love your work! 😉

@KatieM786 6 лет назад

As a bustier lady I can never get shirts/blouses to look right. I would like advice on patterns and cut, lengths and sleeves. That would help so much Justine, thank you so much for your videos 😊

@Tankervoy 6 лет назад

I find that fitted around the bust - especially on the sides/ under the arms - is important to minimize the bust. Anything boxy will just create a “tent”-effect and make this section appear even bigger. Fitted top/ dress, raglan style is nice, and then use an oversized scarf to cover up and draw away the attention from the bust. If you wear a (fitted) blazer and a scarf that is just worn around the neck with the panels hanging loose down the front, it will cover up the bust and tummy nicely. The vertical panels of the scarf create an elongating effect.

@hw7348 6 лет назад

With a large bust, you will look best in tops with a v or open neck up top. It elongates the neck, and can make the bust appear smaller. I have to disagree that a scarf will help conceal the bust. In fact a scarf will bring more attention to that area, and add more weight to that area so you may look even more top heavy. You can wear fitted shirts with a belly if they have some extra fabric, like ruching, or if you wear a higher waist skirt, pants, etc. But I personally always try to wear tops with open necks to help elongate my body; I don't like my whole upper chest and neck to be covered as it does makes me appear much larger than I am. In fall/winter, I never wear scarves, cardigans, etc. I prefer wearing jackets with a defined waist like an anorak jacket or a dress coat (I have one fitted up top and it has a skirt, literally like a dress). I also love peplum tops, and "fit and flare" or a-line dresses during summer or winter with thick tights. But that's just my style. I don't like having a lot of excess fabric on my body. :)

@albert2159 6 лет назад

Je pense que ce genre de coupes est bien pour cacher les petits ventres. Pour prendre un exemple, je ne suis pas sûre que ce soit le cas sur une femme qui a un "vrai" ventre à cacher. Je veux dire un ventre qui prend tout l'espace entre la poitrine et le bas du buste. Et les mannequins sont toutes grandes ça joue aussi. Pour moi les tailles empires et les ceintures à noeud ne vont qu'aux mannequins, ça donne l'air enceinte pour peu que la femme est un peu de poitrine et les ceintures accentue lorsqu'il y a un ventre. Mais bon je te crois volontier quand même j'ai peut-être juste des idées pré-concues (ou des mauvaises expériences XD ). Super chaîne 🙂

@ginny798x5 6 лет назад

Hi Justine, I have been meaning to find out what those small strips of ribbon that are always added to clothes, tops, sweaters and dresses under the arm. I assume it is to help the garment when hung to support it? but is is annoying because I am constantly tucking them in. So I am wondering if that is correct. I am wondering if you can answer this on one of your videos. I love your videos! keep it up. Thank you

@mikaeladonges9102 6 лет назад

Cali798x yep. you'll notice they use them to hang them up in the store nicely.. If it's something like a sweater. usually they get folded and never hung up once at home to preserve the knit better..so often you can cut them off.

@ginny798x5 6 лет назад

Thanks Mikaela! The ribbon seems soo nice and I always felt funny cutting them, but they were annoying if I didn't cut them on certain dresses or tops as they got in the way! :-)

@WouldntULikeToKnow. 6 лет назад

I usually cut those off too. If you want to hang a dress or top use a velvet covered hanger so the item doesn't slide off.

@phantomkate6 6 лет назад

@sashadegenhardt703 6 лет назад

Why do I want to look heavier than I already am? Most of the clothes you showed will never look right on a truly plus sized woman with really plush curves. Your advice is great for very thin women who rarely have to worry about bigger bellies unless they are pregnant.
