Casual look
For casual occasions look to your humble best t-shirts to seal the deal. A fitted design, such as a cotton jersey will help to balance out a wide leg pant and tucking your tee in at the waist will help to reclaim your curves. For a more relaxed feel, try a French or half-tuck, this gives a glimpse of your waist, creating an hourglass silhouette, but will also help to loosely skim a midriff.
Work look
Tuck your shirt in, or half-tucking into high-waisted, wide leg pants to reclaim your shape. Team with on-trend loafers or a pair of slim-heeled courts for a polished look. Adding your best blazer to wide leg pants would also work, tailoring and contouring your upper torso.
Evening look
For evening wear wide leg pants, look for softer and silkier fabrics that offer a beautiful drape and a little bit of luster to seal the deal. Or go bold in brights for an statement outfit. If you do want to go for a top with more volume, make sure to either choose a sheer fabric – such as a chiffon blouse or look for off-the-shoulder detailing to still highlight a narrower part of your frame
Smart casual look
To keep in the relaxed lane, look for soft-handle, wide leg pants and a tonal fitted top, or chic Breton stripe to create a stylish base layer. This means you can then dress up your pants with a blazer, or keep it more casual in a cardigan or sweater – the choice is yours.

As these are for vacation, you’re looking for a more laidback feel, so opt for comfy drawstring and elasticated waist designs. A really easy-on look, you might want to consider them for what to wear on the plane too.
