Coloures and Textures for Obese People
There are very few people who have perfect figures. The whole art of dressing is to create an optical illusion that emphasizes the good points and minimizes the weak points. It is here that colours and textures are important if a person is on the heavier side.
When choosing fabric for yourself, keep in mind that bulky and heavy fabrics will add width to the body. Soft and clinging fabrics will hug the body and reveal the silhouette. Shiny and glossy fabrics will increase your size because they reflect light. Dull surface and medium weight fabrics tend to give slender appearance. As they do not have highlights, they tend to minimize size and conceal the outline of the silhouette. Prints and patterns should be in proportion to the size of the figure. A large orient on a small figure looks ridiculous. In the same way a small print on a large frame will look absurd. Therefore, overall prints should be small and not contrast too much.To look slim, stripes must be narrow. Bold broad stripes will make you appear broader. Vertical lines create an optical illusion that help you look taller and slender than you really are. When the eye moves in upward direction it gives an illusion of tallness and thinness. When the upward motion of the eye is interrupted by cross wise lines then the object looks shorter and rounder. Besides fabrics and prints select a colour to suit your weight. If you are stout, dark coloured fabrics will make you appear stouter, therefore you should go in for cool colours like blues and greens that tend to recede and make you appear slimmer. Light colours make your figure seem much larger than dark ones. You should use medium colours that blend with the background but do not necessarily define the outline of the figure. For example, you should choose a forest green colour instead of muted grape colour, instead of royal blue a soft rose and instead of bright pink grey.
