Styles That Make Women Look Fat

Does this make me look fat? We've all probably asked this question at least once in our lives.
 Full Skirt;A full skirt on a short woman equals a guaranteed fashion faux pas because of the widening effect. Petite women should avoid skirts that are wider than they are long at all costs. The worst offenders include full circle skirts (the poodle skirt that was so popular in the 1950s is an example), gathered skirts (these produce a lot of fullness around the top of the hips), and pleated skirts (pleated skirts with stitched down pleats may be an exception depending on other style factors).

 Wide Belt;These add bulk and a horizontal line across the middle,not a good thing for women who are trying to look slimmer. If the wide belt is in a contrasting color, it widens even more. A better choice for a belt, especially for short women, is a narrow belt in the same color as the clothing. 
Skinny Jeans; look best when worn by skinny women. Just because skinny jeans are available in all sizes doesn't mean that they're a flattering style choice. Jeans with straight legs almost always look better on short women (unless they wear a tiny size) than skinny jeans do.
 Patterned Pants;It only goes downhill when shorter women wear any type of pants or jeans that made from fabric with a pattern, whether it's plaid, striped, floral, or some other print, rather than a solid color (preferably a dark solid color for the slimmest appearance). One exception to this rule is pinstriped pants as long as the stripes are truly very narrow and the pants hang straight from the hip without distorting the vertical lines of the stripes. Another exception is a very tiny pattern, such as a subtle check, in a neutral fashion color because it will read more like a neutral solid hue.
