YOUR CURVES, YOUR ADVANTAGE: Hourglass Wardrobe Example.

[@TheDebbiespagnolo]

I'm hourglass but not plus size... Not all hourglass girls are large...... I love the recommendations for this type though thankyou

[@dtiz10]

Thank you for that. I am the same; hourglass but not plus size. Agreed, the rules are good though.

[@ghr8036]

TheDebbiespagnolo same I’m pretty skinny yet I do...

[@gitanamk]

I agree, scrolled through the comments seeing if other people felt the same. I wear a size medium and have a hourglass shape but not plus-sized.

[@cinder6091]

.... im a small size... and i do consider myself a hourglass... or am i blind lol or am i just not curvy enough cuz my shoulder and hips r similar while my waist is smaller 🤷🏻‍♀️ idk ill prolly grow into something else when im done with puberty lol

[@S_R_B-b9l]

Ugh! Preach sister! 🙌🏻👏🏻

[@annalina-we]

i'm normally not a fan of videos or articles about "fashion rules" but yours always have such a positive and encouraging tone to them instead of feeling restricting, i really enjoy them!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you!!! ❤️☺️

[@markusmeyer6391]

I was thinking the exact same thing

[@KohoSarv]

Ok so I’m a hour glass, and I am bad at styling I needed this so thank you.

[@pokdots01]

I love this body type series! It would be great to have a video where you apply these principles to a real person/people and actually see how the clothes transforms and accentuates different figures.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Yes! That would be very nice!

[@estellescordellis4332]

I find your approach to colour and fashion refreshing and exciting.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you so much!!!! What kind videos would like to see more of? :)

[@estellescordellis4332]

I really enjoyed it when you used colour in wardrobes inspired by various artists and I would love to see more of your wardrobe as you have a very unique style that I find interesting and inspiring, thank you x

[@anythingispossiblenow]

I agree with many of the other comments. Hourglass, but not plus. And, I virtually never wear clothing like this. Jeans, t-shirts, leggings with tunics...that is my style. I have discovered how to cut up t-shirts and make them better with slashed sleeves, v-neckline, as well as cut up the side and tied to get rid of the straight hemline across the wide part of my hips. Lots of times it requires altering clothing to make it work! I often buy xxl tops at a thrift shop with beautiful fabric, then cut them up and make something that works better for me. I'm generally only out 50 cents if it doesn't work..LOL!! Thank you for your guidance.

[@purplelamington279]

2:15 was very helpful, i always gravitate towards long tops but i tucked my shirt in the other day and baaam my legs didn't look like stubs anymore. Thank u

[@angiemcdermid4845]

Delightful and encouraging. I am interested in more casual outfits as well.

[@Tralalaikaable]

Love the video! Can we get a video (or maybe a blog post) with a more sporty/ street style for hourglass? It seems that every video for this body type includes clothes that are very "office" and that's deffinetly not everyone's cup of tea

[@wonderwardrobe]

I’ll try! But the thing is that the cuts and shapes will be the same anyway no matter what style is used.

[@katerynakukharicheva2456]

The thing with sporty style is that it's hard to find proper types of clothes. For example, hoodies are usually loose, not with fitted cut; also if T-shirts are fitted, they look out-of-date. This is the brainteaser: how to look slim and nice in such clothes?

[@cotus2]

Екатерина Кухаричева I think at this moment in time there’s a lot of relevant cuts that hourglass can choose from! Fitted tops seem to be back in fashion, same as straight pants. Fitted dresses with zippers and proper cuts even in more casual styles.

[@estellerose9900]

@@katerynakukharicheva2456 This is a really late response, but my strategy with sport/casual tops is to be picky with length - a hoodie or t-shirt that sits around hip height is usually really flattering!

[@lilamarin1832]

Thanks for this video! I'm a hourglass and even though I prefer to not give too much attention to fashion rules and to wear what I like because I don't like restricting myself too much, having some rules corresponding to what I Iike helps me feeling better and getting more self confident. So I'm not going to apply all the rules in this video, but some of them can be very useful. Thank you for creating videos that provides positive messages like this one, it really changes from the usual fashion talking wich is like "you must look like this, you must wear this, etc..."

[@lindimacellani7104]

the only "fashion rules" video for curvy girls I've ever identified with. The styles are actually wearable and work and look fantastic, especially in real life even more than in the pictures. thank you!

[@agnesbonavita3422]

Congrats !! I love when there is a hard job done to make a video and a real concern for people, you are so generous and very very professional. Love your videos and all the research you make for us, always with a smile and nice attitude. Thanks a lot !!!!

[@bernadettedevereaux8694]

I just stumbled across your video because I wanted fashion inspiration for my very curvy figure. I’m nearly 70 years old and before retiring from my last job as a medical clerical specialist I was allowed to wear street clothes instead of a uniform. With weekly purchases from my favorite consignment shop I was able to put together outfits that garnered a lot of compliments. I’m a very curvy petite woman, 46-36-52. Nearly all of my clothes have to be altered. You’ve given me very good advice for how to dress without looking frumpy or age inappropriate. Thank you.

[@undinespragg855]

Hi Daria This single video has changed the way I look at clothes. I am on my way to creating my own wonder wardrobe.

[@elisabethschmiedel2026]

I waited my whole life for this. Thank you so much

Thank you. I love this. I am so happy to have found it. I plan on creating as close to this wardrobe as possible. Fantastic presentation. Clear, concise, and creative.

[@croitoriafaraformule]

Hello, Daria. I am in love with your curvy hour glass wardrobe! I never thought there are so many sustainable options for curvy figures. Thank you! Great video

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you! Yes, there are some options but it’s not enough! I hope more sustainable designers will expand their size range ;)

[@Hicks_homestead]

Your videos are so well done and useful!! Thank you!

[@talia2229]

I’m an hourglass and I never knew how to dress to show of my figure! This helped me a lot thanks!!

[@arpitsri9631]

Hi baby I am arpit from India

[@andromeda0448]

Really inspiring, as always, Daria! I think I can use a lot of your ideas. I am not exactly plus size but not slim either, rather something in between (a German size 42/44) and I think we in-betweens aren't often addressed specifically. My problem is that hitting 50, most of my weight is around the tummy - if you look at me from the front, I'm an hourglass, but from the side - there's the belly. So tucking in shirts is not a good idea and I struggle with accentuating a waistline that is only partially defined. Culottes and palazzo pants look horrible on me. But I think your ideas on fabrics and soft lines are fabulous!

[@squaretriangle9208]

Had the same problem but work on losing the belly now, both for aesthetic and health reasons

[@asthasutariya2691]

Same situation, any tips for reducing the belly please?

[@LifeChangeAdvicewithTiffany]

Awesome video! I loved seeing the 25 outfits too.

[@KKK-gr3on]

You are the best stylist ever

[@NaaiArchi]

Great video with a lot of useful information ! Thanks ;)

[@dafuqiswithyoupeople]

I'm Pakistani, so we usually wear different outfits back home. When I moved to Germany for my studies, I wanted to wear more Western clothes as Pakistani ethnic dresses don't work for every day here. I was having so much trouble styling myself, as a curvy girl, as the styles here seemed to only look good on thin people, and the advice of other fashion KZbinrs didn't seem to work on me. However, after seeing this video, I see that I was just unable to style myself according to the cuts here. You are an amazing stylist and an amazing person - I love your positive vibes!

[@kinga3546]

I come back to this video over and over. So useful..

[@KKKaTTT123]

This is an amazing video what a job!!! Thanks!!!

[@patriciai.keller351]

Thank you Daria, for such useful tips! What I like most are combinations of dark with dark colours (top and bottom) with outstanding accesories (scarfs, necklaces, big earrings). It gives huge versatility, is very practical for traveling (usually a necklace or scarf take less space than another clothing item) and it very easy to pull togehter when your mind is busy somewhere else than clothes! xoxo!

[@joeheller7581]

Can you please make another video like this but for smaller sized hourglass figures? Like s or m

[@annievoss2010]

Though this video is not for my body type, it still was super informative! I can't wait to see more of this series. (Also, your editing is AMAZING)

[@wonderwardrobe]

Yes! The vertical illusions and all the color tips will work for every shape! Thank you!

[@warmlavender5525]

Honestly wasn’t expecting this video to be so informative! It’s funny cause if I look at my favorite pieces in my closet they match what your recommendations almost perfectly. Thanks so much!

[@Jocyr24]

Dear Daria: I watch your videos all the time, and this video is one of my favorites. Not all curvy girls are plus sizes and I would like you to research more about girls curves, for example, latinas (me). Why ? Because unfortunately the Latin curves have to dress provocatively to “show off the curves”; and that is sad, falling into vulgarity. Honestly I was a victim of this but I realized in time and I always try to update myself. but it would be good to do this challenge for the other side of the curves girls.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Here is the video for slim hourglass: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXebgpWrq66FsKs

[@wonderwardrobe]

But all the styling principles will be the same as explained in this video. 😉

[@blackroseCHEPE17]

I have the same body type and I'm also latina. I had the same problem, even if you're not trying to dress to look vulgar sometimes with your curves and small size some clothes would make it so ( like fitted shirts that are a little too tight on the bust, or a modest cleavage that becomes immodest because of your cup size) I have always been shy so I avoided this type of clothing but I ended up looking frumpy and a little overweight. Thankfully now I follow most of what Daria recommends but it's still a struggle sometimes.

[@meenakshiyadav1850]

Wow. You're so good at explaining. The best vedio. Keep up the good work

[@dianafromcanada516]

Excellent work ! It's not my body shape but I really enjoyed the styling and colour palette. Thank you.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thanks! I was afraid this capsule was a little too conservative ☺️❤️

[@dianafromcanada516]

Maybe but most importantly by watching your videos I began to understand how to work with shapes, fabrics and colour harmoniously around a body figure. It's encouraged me to try clothes that I would have never considered wearing before. And it's allowed me to visualize my wardrobe and perceive it as a whole, almost like a painting with a colour palette and geometrical shapes to mix and match. You are a fantastic stylist.

[@Soldrakenn]

Thank you, esp the trousers part was usefull. However, I'm quite tall with already long legs, sometimes when I wear stuff that "elongates" my legs I find that my torso becomes very unproportionaly short...

[@alsokristin7308]

I am hourglass but not plus size. And there are people who are plus size but they aren't hourglass. The tips are good, though.

[@wonderwardrobe]

You body type corresponds to your bone structure not size. So if you have an hourglass figure you can be any size from small to big, and change of size doesn’t change your bone structure. But also true that women with any body type can be plus size (obviously). Thanks though.

I like all your videos, the ones based on paintings are great!!! Maybe a series about best colours for burnettes, blondes, etc. Since I started dressing with colours that complement my complexion my wardrove is better!! Another idea what to bring in a small business trip? Maybe 1 or 2 nights out with a fancy dinner? When you travel with your male colleagues it always looks like you carry bigger travel bags

That's nice and all, but what about a plus size hourglass figure with a belly in front? If I wear high waisted bottoms to accentuate my waist, I look pregnant because my belly becomes very visible! And when I wear long draping tops, I lose my waist.

Good tips. I might add, it's important to consider what "type" you are in choosing the correct colors. If you're not sure what that is, check out Carol Tuttle.(I have no association with her) or . . . . remember the 4 season colors to determine best colors for you? I prefer Tuttle's personality types.

[@wonderwardrobe]

I know exactly what it is, as it’s my job :) I’ve been working as an image consultant and personal shopper for over 10 years. The Wonder wardrobe method was created by me to allow people to build fully interchangeable, unique and sustainable wardrobe. It includes the most modern methods and tricks. The typology you mentioned is a mix of colour types and kibbie system, which is nothing new, but it’s ok if you find it helpful. I love that she works with natural beauty elements, I do that too in my work as well. But the styles she recommends look very outdated for me personally.

[@StephanieJoRountree]

[@thisisaname4661]

Body shape is determined by bone structure and your body's natural weight distribution not how much you weigh. I would be an hourglass no matter what my size is. But can we talk about how impossible is it to find dress shirts that fit off the rack? I literally don't think they exist. My waist is 13 inches smaller than my hips and shoulders and I wear a 32DD - 28G bra. I'm about a medium in the chest area and a small or extra small in the waist. Dress shirts have too much baggage in the waist on me. Straight cut dress shirts are the worst and there is always a TON of excess material in the back. I had to buy a dress shirt for work and the smallest size that fit my chest was way too big in the waist and back.

It frustrates me that clothing stores often combine their plus size collection with their curvy collection when I'm curvy but not plus size... Makes it really confusing to shop. Does anyone know UK stores with actual hourglass collections? - I only know of Nasty Gal's Shape Collection
