How to Rock a Bodycon Midi Dress

OUTFIT DETAILS
Dress (c/o) / Shoes / Clutch / Watch / Necklace (c/o)

Long gone are the days when my waistline was at the 24- to 25-inch range. Since I've entered my thirties, that has been the least of my concern. But that does not mean that I shy away from wearing body-hugging pieces. However, I cannot deny that it requires a certain amount of confidence to be able to put on a piece that exposes every possible flaw in your body. So how do I cope with it?

Use Shapewear

Personally, I haven't tried using one but I would definitely use one once I can find the right shapewear. There is no shame in seeking a little help. We are not perfect. A shapewear can help to conceal any unsightly bulges that you are not proud to flaunt and also make your tummy look a little flatter. 


Layer It


If you are not comfortable at all with wearing a bodycon dress, a good way to ease yourself into it is to layer it. You can think of a loose cardigan or kimono, even a cropped denim jacket will do. This will give a polished edge to your outfit while making you less self-conscious.


Highlight Your Best Feature


Is it your bust, your collar bones or your butt? Whatever it is, a bodycon dress is going to showcase your best asset. Make sure you know how to showcase it so it can highlight your asset and take eyes away from your least favorite features. 


Go Seamless


This is the key to make sure that everything looks smooth. You would want to avoid those panty lines!


Do Not Over-Accessorize


A good bodycon dress is going to make a statement in itself. Hence, avoid over-the-top accessories. Let your dress make a statement.
