6 Outfits for Wide Hips

If you have wide hips, you may struggle figuring out how to dress in a way that flatters them. Accentuating your hips with the right outfits can give you a beautiful hourglass figure. Keep reading to learn various ways to make your hips the star of the show!

1. Wrap Dress

Rocking a wrap dress is a phenomenal way to flatter your hips and bust while it cinches at the waist. Make sure the tie is neatly in a bow and secure so it won’t accidentally come undone. Consider a dress in a darker color, like navy, or in a pattern to match the season. Opt for a pair of heels for a finishing touch.

Whether you want to wear a short wrap dress, one that’s long, or one that has a hem falling somewhere in between, there’s complementary shapewear available. Shaper panties and shaper shorts are typically ideal, especially for short dresses, and they won’t inadvertently peek out from underneath. Along with shaper shorts providing some shaping, they will also prevent chafing. 

2. A-Line Dress

An A-line dress is a gorgeous option for any body shape. They’re comfortable, ideal in various environments ranging from work to weddings, and provide a stunning silhouette. If you want to give your booty a boost, check out our butt-lifting underwear. They’re available in many hues and styles, so choose the right option that best matches your A-line dress, and no one will be able to tell you’re even wearing any.

3. Off-the-Shoulder Shirt

An off-the-shoulder shirt might not seem to have anything to do with your hips, but this style balances the two areas. While you can certainly wear a flowy top if you so desire, consider choosing a shirt that cinches in and is more body-hugging so it can show off your waist.

4. A-Line Skirt With a Bodysuit

An A-line skirt can have the same benefits as the previously mentioned A-line dress as long as it sits properly at your natural waist and fits well. A bodysuit helps create a balance with a fuller skirt. Considering bodysuits come in a plethora of styles, you’re not short on options. One day, you can wear a long-sleeved turtleneck bodysuit; the next, you can wear one with tank straps and an open back.

5. Palazzo Pants

Palazzo pants are arguably one of the best types of pants out there. They’re ideal for professional and casual settings, come in a range of colors and materials, and look fabulous with many types of tops.

You’ll often see palazzo pants with wide legs in the trendy style. Wearing them with a top, such as a bodysuit, creates almost a triangle effect of a cinched-in waist with the widest triangle part at the ankles. Make sure to get the pants professionally tailored to fit well and not drag on the ground.

6. Cinched-Waist Maxi Dress

A maxi dress with a cinched waist helps you flaunt your fantastic curves and looks gorgeous on ladies with wide hips. This dress style is available for all four seasons; it’s just a matter of finding the right combination of material and style, so you’re comfortable in the current temperature. For instance, wear a lightweight spaghetti strap chiffon maxi dress in summer and a heavy-duty cotton long-sleeved maxi dress during winter with the addition of fleece-lined tights.

Ladies who prefer a shapewear effect can look into options like hip shapewear. It’s available in a range of styles, including full-body that no one can see under a maxi-dress, so you can choose the type of effect you want to create.

Plan Your Outfits for Style and Fit

When choosing your outfits, remember you always want to wear what makes you feel like your absolute best self. You want pieces you know will make you feel incredible and stylish but will also be comfortable and help you create the effect you want to establish.
