TAILORED FIT: Enlist a designer or a tailor to make you something, or nip and tuck where needed (if it’s something you bought at a store), and make sure it’s tailored to fit to perfection

CEXPERIMEN­T WITH COLOUR: urves! Some of us want them, some don’t, but some wish we had them a little bigger. There is no ultimate formula to fulfill the nuances of our individual tastes, but there are a few handy fashion tips that some of the coolest, curvy style blazers we know rely upon, like the renowned make-up artist and influencer, Natasha Proctor.

We asked her what makes a style statement when dressing for curves. “My general advice to curvy women is to love and appreciate your curves. You need to know that you are a masterpiec­e and that you were shaped and designed uniquely. This is why you should carry yourself with confidence and stand up tall whenever you walk into any room. Your confidence must not be mistaken for pride.

Carry yourself in such a way that people know that you love and appreciate yourself. People might stare at you all the time but give them something to stare at. Your outfits must always stand out and you need to look presentabl­e because you’ll never know who you’ll meet along the way .The curvy woman likes to show skin in right way and she should. You should love being curvy and having all these extra hips and boobs. It is something to be proud of. The fashion industry is even slowly evolving and accepting women for their curves, so why aren’t you doing the same?

You don’t have to fit into an idea of what a person thinks is beautiful. You should feel beautiful because it starts with you. Do things you enjoy to make yourself feel loved and appreciate­d in order to boost your confidence. Curvy girls can always pull off a look, it’s what we do. There is nothing sexier than a woman comfortabl­e in her own skin” says the renowned, style blazing make-up artist, Natasha Proctor.

RESPECT THE POWER OF PATTERNS AND PRINTS: Always go for vertical lines as they give a slimmer figure if that’s your goal. Prints, texture and colour can also be used to accentuate the favourite assets you want to highlight.
