Having a Big Butt as a Teen Girl? I Wish Someone Had Told Me This

Some teenager will notice that their butt grows faster than the rest of their body. Sometimes it’s because they hit puberty earlier. Others are simply blessed with the genetics of a great seat. Whether you are an early bloomer or not, you may find this attention unwelcome. Never give up on yourself! You are only a few wardrobe choices and a shift in attitude away from feeling good about your body.

Make Your Whole Body Work Together: When dressing for a bigger butt, it’s important to draw attention to your upper body. You want to look for tops that add weight or curves to your shoulders and chest too. Doing both will take away from your behind, and with your clothes you can add proportion to a more balanced figure.

You want bold colours and patterns. Don’t go overboard to the point of being garish but look for eye-catching colours and provocative patterns to keep all eyes up top.

Seek out horizontal necklines. They catch the eye and slim the waist.

Try bell sleeves. These add to your shoulder line to create a clean line with your larger backside to balance your silhouette.

Buy the necklaces and the scarves. These are two of your most valuable accessories when dealing with a larger butt. Necklaces (particularly larger ones) draw attention to your top and neckline, while scarves add width to your shoulders.

Wanted Less Attention, These Clothes Did the Trick: If you handle your behind by minimising it, then look for dark colours in trousers. Tops (including jackets and sweaters) that hang low on you, just past where your butt begins. They gloss right over your butt because your eye goes to the end of the garment.

The A-line dress is said to be a good way to hide any behind. Choose a few that you like, more than a couple. If you can make them a part of your style the A-line dress will be your best fashion friend.

Purchase Slimming Shapewear/Underwear. These will help to slim down your waist, butt and thighs for a slimmer overall look.

You can wear a full body shaper or tank top to smooth back fat.

Wear the correct size bra. If the fit isn’t right, it can cause the back fat to bulge that wouldn’t otherwise. Get fitted by a professional. Choose a smoothing bra . . .

Pay attention to the fabrics you wear. A fitted knit will always reveal more of our lumps and bumps. Choose heavier fabrics to drape over your body.

Vertical details such as zippers and pleats create a slimmer waist and backside. Look for shirts with these qualities.

The Pants That Changed How You Shape Looked: Look for wide legs, low waistbands and big back pockets. The pockets distract the eyes, the waistband will make your butt look smaller and the flared legs help to balance your silhouette. If you want to divert attention from your hips then avoid skinny jeans that taper off at the ankle.

Go for high-waisted shorts or trousers for a classic look. The high-waist connects your butt to your waist to make it one seamless line de-emphasising your backside.

When shopping for jeans look for anything “boot cut” or with flared legs. Nothing too bedazzled or with particularly busy patterns, especially on the back. You want jeans that will flatter your behind, not draw attention to it.

The Skirt Mistakes You Stopped Making: Ensure your skirts fit very well, more than other articles of clothing. You don’t want to attract the wrong sort of attention with a skirt that is badly fitted and bunches or slips at the waist. Pencil skirts are a good choice for wide hips because they’ll offset your shape. Fluted skirts are great for hiding your butt, and bringing attention down to your legs.
