THE TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS OF GREAT PHYSICAL AND THIN

BIG MAN AND the END : HOW to AVOID The BIG BOOM

There are plenty of tricks possible !

For a start, an example : the outfit that you would go the less well would be the combo suit, tie and striped shirt, the whole without a seat belt.

Why ? Because it is an outfit that all of the lines that lead the eye would be the vertical. These lines and refine the silhouette and accentuate the impression stick "Mikado".

Specifically, it is necessary add the horizontality to your outfit. But first, let me introduce you to your new best friend...

The jacket. It is the garment that is essential for the large and thin, you will draw good shoulders, while structuring all the top of the body. Must choose, and be particularly demanding on the bending, since most of the jackets are not sufficiently curved to the great physical and purposes.

Let's go back to the horizontal position with a few examples...

On the tee-shirts and sweaters, use horizontal stripes that will extend visually the bust.

Shirts casual, of pockets breasts a little worked help thicken the torso, and shoulder pads will look the shoulders larger.

The layering also works very well, with a tee-shirt and a shirt, or a cardigan, open as a jacket, for example.

In terms of accessories, a beautiful belt a light color or seer will break the silhouette too slender. Whilsta scarf large allows you to visually inflate the shoulders.

A handkerchief in the pocket of the jacket also draws the eye, and prevents it from looking at the silhouette of a sudden from top to bottom.

Finally, setbacks or a hem your pants can least lengthen the leg (to avoid it if you are small).

On this picture, we find all these tricks : a collar and a scarf is imposing that define beautiful shoulders ; the hem on the jeans and the boots break, on the other hand, the verticality of the silhouette.

THE CUTS are ADJUSTED IN THE READY-TO-WEAR, ENTRY-level

The brands of ready-to-wear mass have the habit of juggling with hundreds of references per season (or per month), and for them, this is not a concern of developing an entire line of clothing " slim fit ".

Almost all brands (H&M, Mango, Zara, Celio, Gap, Jules, etc) offer cuts adjusted. There is talk of cuts a slim, fitted or fittées, sometimes even extra slim, etc However, these terminologies are a true mi'kmaq, and it is necessary to always try before you buy. Do not rely on the labels and words used !

Asos and Topman also offer a wide variety of cuts, sometimes with tee-shirts is voluntarily very long.

CHOOSE THE BRANDS THAT CUT FOR LARGE AND THIN

The designer labels, meanwhile, have only rarely several cuts for their clothing. So, if you're not in the right shop, you're cooked.

In general, the trademarks of the nordic countries offer clothes that are long enough, surely, to accommodate the physical slender of there.

ALTERATIONS IN ORDER TO ADJUST THE LENGTH OF THE SLEEVES OR THE PANTS

Attention, do not make an obsession of the length of your sleeves because if you wait to find the perfect pair, you may be waiting for a long time. When you do your shopping in ready-to-wear, keep in mind that, depending on your budget and what is proposed, you have to make compromises.

By the way, if you made less than 1.85 m, in most cases this will not be hyperchoquant visually (you'll be the only one to notice it).

Finally, you can always roll up the sleeves on a jacket or a shirt. In addition to eliminating the problem of length, it has a tendency to tighten a bit the handle. And a neck well fittée, it is better.

For a jacket or coat, it is much easier to adjust the length of the sleeves to resume the shoulders and the bending.

We find in general 3 to 4 cm of material in addition to in the sleeves of coats or jackets. You can earn 2 to 3 cm in length, and visually, it is enough to make a nice difference.

Council for your purchases : if the shoulders you are well and that the bending is good, but the sleeves are a little short, think of the editing.

4 cm on the jacket, which already lengthen the handle !

For a shirt : of course, it is impossible to lengthen the sleeves (yes ! it has not yet invented the scissors to add the fabric). However, if you find a shirt of which the sleeves and the shoulders fit you well, you can adjust the bending by adding clamps bending. This is a simple operation : we folded the excess fabric to the inside of the shirt and add a seam.

As to the pants : the editing of the size, or to shrink it, is a fairly simple operation. Technically, therefore, it is possible to buy a pair of pants a little large to size and do retouch. But all of a sudden, you may be needed to fine-tune also the leg, according to the narrowness of the leg to the base.

It is of course easier to lengthen a pair of pants that take you to the waist, except that, in general, there is very little material in the hem. Same problem as with the sleeve, to you, so check it out.
