Tuxedo Pants for Every Shape

If You Have a Tummy

Try a slim cut with a flat front or a side zipper to bring focus to slender legs and downplay the middle, says Jeffrey Thorpe, the creative director of Magaschoni. Avoid pleats, pockets, or a cummerbund, which will bulk up the midsection.

To try: A roomy fit through the middle accommodates a tummy, while slim-cut legs show off your best feature. The almost-matte satin of the waistband will not highlight figure flaws.

Wear them with: “A flowy top with an interesting neckline to draw focus away from the problem area,” says Thorpe.
