Summer is here and with it short dresses, airy fabrics and light tops. But who has one or two more kilos on the hips, is now in a sweat: how the vulture, our "problem areas" as elegant as possible be concealed?
YouTuber Loey Lane is fed up with the same tips from the fashion magazines: Black makes you slim? Not just flat shoes? Off-shoulder makes wide shoulders? How absurd such tips can be, the young woman demonstrated in one of her YouTube videos. Under the title "Fat Girl Summer Dress Code" she gives curvy women "styling tips" for the summer.
TIPS: THESE garments definitely NOT wear (attention, satire ...)
1. belly free
"How can a woman with curves just think she can wear a crop top without bothering all the other people around her - I mean, do not you see that strip of skin being uncovered ?!"
2. Short pants
"Shorts are simply not made for wide bodies, long leggings or even better jeans are also compulsory in the summer! It's best to wear one more layer over the jeans, how about a layered pullover? Note: Short pants combined with thick legs are strictly prohibited. "
3. sportswear
"If you want to keep fit and do some exercise, do not wear it in a sports bra, wear at least (!) A long-sleeved shirt as it should, plus a long yoga pant, maybe even a second pair of yoga pants just to make sure nobody gets bothered by any rounding. "
4. Tight clothes, tight jeans, anything tight at all
"Hide the figure completely is right, but please do not put it in tight clothing - if you see your figure, that's unacceptable - I guess you just have to carry a big brown sack that will caress the character."
5. Shape-Wear
"Spanx, which form your body, are misleading advertising and therefore strictly prohibited!"
6. Bikinis
"Anyone who wears a bikini is really begging to get a look and comments, no one wants to see plus size women in a bikini! That's why I suggest a shirt and two layers of leggings for the beach visit over it, so that nobody really feels disturbed. "
Which dress code should you follow alternatively?
Of course, the tips of Loey Lane are not meant quite seriously. Your contribution shows once again the ridiculousness of Bodyshaming. A real dress code has the American but also for us, and that's the only one that really counts:
If you are fat, put on what you want.
If you're skinny, put on what you want.
