I’m plus size – my best outfits for hiding a big belly
She wore a bright orange figure-hugging maxi dress with a scoop neckline and a matching belt around the smallest part of her waist.
For her first tip, she said: “Belts are my go-to because they define my waist and break up the two heaviest parts of my body.”
Then she moved onto what many call a “pear” body shape, which she described as being “wide on the hip area but not so much on top.”
Kristine changed into an orange off-the-shoulder blouse with ruching and puffy sleeves. She tucked it into an olive green bodycon pencil skirt.

“Well, what if you’re not particularly curvy at all and you don’t feel like you have a defined waist?” she asked.
She put on a bright blue minidress with long sleeves, a V-neckline, and a concealed elastic band that cinched the fabric into her waist area.
“Find garments with details that define a waist for you,” Kristine said, adding: “That way it does all the work!”
Many of Kristine’s followers thanked her for the tips and asked her to continue sharing them in a series.
“This was great! I’ve always watched your vids and thought ‘but I’m not hour-glass like she is.’ Thank You,” one person wrote.
Kristine responded, writing: “I am the shape that I am, but I really want to help a broader variety of shapes as much as I can.”
Another person supportively commented: “I feel so stuck with outfits [that] I have literally copied your ideas and even wear some for work.”
For the final look, she picked a dress that had built-in waist definitionTikTok/trendycurvy
