Looking Better: Small and Bulky

Quite possibly the most unflattering body type, your aim is to thin your waist as this will create a more proportional figure in comparison to your legs. Fitted trousers will generally create the look of a thinner waist and also elongate/thin out your legs. Tops with larger shoulders and short sleeve lengths are also good to create a balanced top half of your body. However, you should still try to create an exact fit with the shoulders, as clothes that are too big will bring more emphasis on your stature.
