Now, I'm going to show you how to wear velvet trousers. Velvet trousers are ideal for the evening, but I'm going to show you how to wear velvet trousers during the day. I'm going for the seventies look, which is going to be on trend for the season.
So, you need a pair of boot cut flares which is very seventies. They're ideal for any body shape, because what they do is balance the bottom with the top - whether you've got wider hips or broader shoulders or a larger butt. So, get your pair of velvet trousers.
Now, the seventies is all about frills and patterns; so if you have a boyish figure, go for a very frilly blouse, because what it does, it gives you the impression of a bust and all of the patterns here will actually bulk up the top part here as well. You want to keep it simple with your accessories, go for the long hippie pendants, maybe a psychedelic heart as well. And that's how you do a boyish figure! Now, you can also wear this slip with a pear shape because what you want to do is draw attention away from the hips.
So, all of these patterns and frills will actually draw the eye upwards. However, for this blouse, it also has frills at the bottom which is in line with the hips, so you may not actually want to actually wear that for the pear-shape. So, if you're actually pear-shape, it's probably best to actually have a blouse like this, with shorter sleeves, which brings the attention to the top.
The fullness of the blouse is quite good, and the abode detail here also brings the attention up here. You can still wear your psychedelic hearts. And that would be how you would wear velvet trousers for a pear-shape.
Now, if you're more top heavy, or you have broad shoulders, or a wider waist, you're best going for the seventies "caftan" look. Here, it finishes up the hips, so it draws the attention to the hips. The Caftans usually have large wide-bell sleeves which also draws the attention downwards, away from the shoulders, the bust, and the tummy area.
So, this is very good for the inverted triangle, or women who carry their weight around the tummy area. And that is how you wear velvet trousers. .
