From creating the illusion of height to accentuating your curves, here’s how to make your Lumi kimono your ultimate style weapon.
Styling Tips For Petite Frames: Belt It to Elevate It
If you’re on the shorter side, styling is all about creating those elongating vibes. The trick? A well-placed belt.
The Magic of Waist Definition:
Try belting your Lumi kimono at the waist to cinch in the fabric and create a streamlined silhouette. This not only adds structure but also draws the eye upward, giving the illusion of height. Pair it with heels or ankle boots for an extra boost.
Go Full-Length
Opt for a full-length kimono and let it flow effortlessly. The vertical lines of the fabric will naturally elongate your frame, making you look taller and leaner. Pro tip: Stick to monochrome or tonal looks underneath to keep the focus on the kimono’s luxurious drape.
Styling Tips For Curvier Silhouettes: Embrace the Drama
Curves are meant to be celebrated, and your Lumi kimono is the perfect piece to do just that.
Play with Proportions
Layer your kimono over a fitted top and high-waisted pants or a pencil skirt. This creates balance and highlights your natural shape without overwhelming your frame. The kimono’s flowy fabric adds movement and drama, making you feel like the star of the show.
Bold Prints and Dark Hues
If you want to create a slimming effect, go for darker shades or bold, vertical prints. These draw the eye in all the right places and add a touch of sophistication to your look.
Styling Tips For Tall Frames: Go Big or Go Home
If you’ve got height on your side, why not flaunt it?
Maxi Length for Maximum Impact
A floor-grazing kimono is your best friend. It adds drama and movement, making every step feel like a runway moment. Pair it with sleek, minimalist pieces underneath to let the kimono take center stage.
Experiment with Layers
Tall frames can carry off layered looks like no other. Try throwing your kimono over a midi dress or a jumpsuit for a chic, layered effect. The key is to keep the layers light and fluid to avoid bulk.
Styling Tips For Athletic Builds:
Add Softness and Shape If you’ve got a more athletic frame, your Lumi kimono can add softness and dimension to your look.
Create Curves with Draping
Let the kimono’s fabric drape naturally over your shoulders and hips to create the illusion of curves. Pair it with a fitted top and wide-leg pants to balance your silhouette.
Play with Volume
Don’t be afraid to go for a slightly oversized kimono. The extra fabric adds movement and softness, creating a more feminine and flowing look.
