A skinny girl needs all the curves she can gets and belts can help you achieve this. Invest in slim belts in various colours and also bigger ones and pair them with tops or dresses for an even slimmer looking waist and wider looking hips.

Peplum dresses/tops
Peplum style has been saving skinny girls from time immemorial and that is one of the many reasons this trend is not going anywhere anytime soon. You can add curves with peplum style dresses and tops as the fitted top and flared out bottom pattern of these outfits make for perfect styling as they provide additional layers which are key for the slim girl.

Accessories

Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend but all types of jewellery are the skinny girl’s best friend. You can’t have enough of jewelries as a skinny girl because it gives you a fuller-looking body frame so don’t be afraid to pile on the bangles, bracelets and neck-pieces.

Dramatic necklines
Ruffles, bows and a generally busy neckline is really great for slim girls as it creates some more volume to their silhouette which is key. Scoop, round and square necklines are also great because they create room for a cleavage which also creates volume in the upper region. These necklines can also be paired with busy neck-pieces.

Bright colours

Empire waist
The empire waist style is cinched in at the waist and then falls gracefully out in a flared manner. The cut of the empire waist is great for slim girls because it creates a fuller figure.
