5 Women Reveal Their Favorite Belly-Skimming Pieces That Make Them Feel Gorgeous
by The Candidly Team
Our midsections are one of those things that are designed to fluctuate - throughout our lives but also throughout a given day. It doesn’t matter what size or weight we are, our bellies are omnipresent entities announcing themselves at any given moment.
And if you’re a woman around the age of menopause, you’ve probably already lived the reality of your hormones making you more likely to gain weight around your abdomen than anywhere else. Fun!
But wherever you’re at in relation to your own waistline, what I can tell you as someone who’s honestly been a range of sizes and has never not had a belly, the most crucial thing will always be wearing clothes that make you feel good.
And those clothes do not have to be disappointing sacks we hide away in. Because as much as there are days when our swollen, cramping, hormonal bellies make us want to dress like this:
…there are plenty of other options that complement curves and create lines that we can feel excellent about.
With that in mind, we asked 5 women who carry weight in their bellies to tell us what their essential go-to style items are. And once again, we found ourselves adding all of them to cart.
One very small disclaimer: as much as we wish we could show you how good these things look on the actual women who recommended them, we don’t get to choose the photos. But rest assured, we chose these pieces precisely because of how well they work on every size woman, especially an “apple-shape.”
At The Candidly, we try a lot of stuff so you don’t have to. We only recommend things we truly love, and that we think you’ll love, too. All products are chosen independently by our creative team, and all details reflect the price and availability of products at the time of publication.
