Best tops for hiding tummies and muffin tops


If you want to look cute in the summer but have a fear of showing a bulging tummy you’re in luck because this post will cover tops that help hide tummy bulge, muffin tops and more.
The key to hiding these problem areas is to find tops and dresses that not only cover the problem area but also divert attention to your better assets. Something to keep in mind while you shop is that tighter clothes will show more body imprefections so while looking at regular babydoll tops, consider browsing plus size babydoll tops too and see which size looks better on you.

Dolman Tops

Dolman tops have wide armholes that usually narrow down to the wrist. This sleeve design makes the shoulders look sloped, while also bringing attention the collar bone area and making the waist appear narrower.

Banded Tops

Banded tops are great because the garment gives enough room in the midsection area to hide tummies and the banded bottom gives shape to the garment and brings attention to your hips and bottom. This top is great if you are pear-shaped or have an hourglass figure.

Empire Waist Tops

Empire waist tops bring the focus of attention to the bust area of your body. These tops create an empire silhouette which is one the most flattering silhouettes for women. The best necklines for this type of top are scoop and v-neck necklines.

Shoulder Tops

Shoulders are in this spring so take advantage of all the shoulder baring tops that are coming out. Most of these tops are designed so that all attention is on the shoulder. This means the rest of the shirt is used to hide other parts of the body. Be daring and try a one shoulder top for that peek-a-boo effect.
