Hi m_5ugar! Well this is according to the fashion magaxines that I have read before. They say, that to look slim or a little smaller than your normal size, you wear black or any color that is of dark shade. These will make you look slimmer. I guess, it works because I wear dark colors or blacks most of the time. Take care and have a nice day!

I think so, because when I wear black shirt, all my friends say that I look slim.

I'm big...;) I usually wear black, brown. you can choose color, but you have to careful with the style. Try to wear loose clothes, not too tight. It will make you feel comfortable, and quite thin look. Black and brown may very boring color, and they are quite hot when you wear in summer. So you should to consider about style for medium size to big size as well.

Hi there. Most people would wear black for a slimming colour... I personally think, big people look good in any colour, as long as they are feeling good about themselves inside, because when they are, they always standout, with a glow, this makes people look past clothing and colour, In saying that, black and natural colours, depending on style and fit, can give off a slimming effect to enhance the glow anyway...

I hear that black is a very slimming color, you might want to try that and stay away from lighter colors like white and yellow, they seem to make things worse.

normally black and other earth toned colors make a person seem smaller or thinner. so, shades of brown, maroon, navy blue, dark/moss green, fatigue etc. aside from the color, the cut and fabric of the clothes you are wearing can also do some tricks. don't use outfits which are very loose or too tight. one may look baggy or crushed. people say v-necks are better than round-necks for tops. stretch materials are nice too because do they fit without being too tight. :)

I am not a petit person, but I'm not extremely large either. I think people should just wear whatever colours they want to wear. It should make no difference how "big" a person is, if they like a colour, they should wear it.
