Are you wearing lots of volume to disguise your tummy?
Baggy clothes aren’t hiding your holiday weight gain—they’re broadcasting it! And speaking of broadcasting…I recently shared my top tips on 9News at 3 in Denver Colorado with my segment called:
“How to Disguise Your Tummy Without Wearing a Tent.”
🍸🍪 If you're anything like me you may feeling the effects of all the holiday parties, desserts, cocktails and extra merriment?
And you may be feeling a little less confident and wanting to hide your tummy with lots of volume, but...
Here’s a myth: Loose, oversized clothing may seem like the best way to hide weight gain, but it can actually make you look bigger.
Here’s the secret: If you’re wearing something oversized, make sure it fits somewhere. A roomy top through the middle looks polished when it fits well at the arms and bustline.

DISGuise Your Tummy and Feel More Confident
You'll definitely want to click through to see the segment with lots of great examples and fun interaction with Alex and Sam, both moms, who could relate to overindulging during the holidays.
Here are a few of the tips I shared:
- Dress in one color from head to toe to look long, lean and sleek.
- Try Column Dressing: wear one dark color from head to toe and top it with a bright colored jacket...a timeless technique for looking sleek and chic!
- Look for draping and ruching for a little extra coverage to disguise your tummy...so chic!
- Consider highlighting your best body parts instead of concentrating on hiding. For example, if you've got great legs, wear a shorter dress and show them off.
- Accessorize! It's absolutely mind-blowing how effective accessories can be at grabbing attention. Add a colorful necklace and no one will give your tummy a second thought!
The takeaway? You don’t have to feel stuck or self-conscious after all your holiday indulgence. With a few styling tricks, you can disguise your tummy and feel like the most confident version of yourself—no tent required!
