Do skirts make midsize women look fatter?

[Anonymous]

Yes they do.

No they don't.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Maybe? I wasn't sure. I voted "yes".

The problem to me with the women in the photos you posted is like they're so insecure about their waist that they want to obscure it completely.

And that makes them, if you'll forgive my very blunt opinion today, look more "piggy". Like piggy is a big woman in a tu-tu with the skirt hiked up real high, way above her natural waist.

So woman shouldn't be ashamed of her natural waist in my opinion. If she wants to smooth things out, wear a reasonably tight but not too squishy dress that is all black. Smooth it all out. But don't try to move the goal post of where her abdomen and pelvis really meet.

This is not beautiful. Whoever thought this is beautiful? Big women can be beautiful but this is not the way by trying to pretend they're something they're not like just super V and bust by hiking up the waist line. It's same with old men. What old men look good hiking up their pants super high? This is like some insecurity, and it shows very outwardly, and it doesn't even look good.

Cinched at the waist and flowing outward at the bottom looks good on all sizes. The top two images are proof. That last girl doesn't look as good.

Skinny jeans, bike shorts, yoga pants, etc make women look fatter. Dresses and skirts are more flattering.

Pictures one and three are not midsize. But any woman can pull off any skirt if worn properly. Think about the sizing and fit. If it’s too tight or too loose. The print! And everything else you wear with it. If it’s loose on the top, wear tight on the bottom. It it’s tight on the top, wear flowy and loose bottom half for that hour glass look. Or wear monochromatic to make it seamless and gives you that slender look. Any woman can look sexy with the right clothes!

[electromagnetic]

I wouldn’t necessarily say these ladies are mid size though. Maybe the second photo…? And the kinda iffy within its self. High wasted skirts with flairs at the bottom tend to work well with a lot of different body shapes. I think it’s also good to note to dress within your body shape. The first 2 outfits are nice and the third is nice too. But she didn’t dresses in her body shape so it looks a bit rumpled.

Oh, I can't see the images, but let me tell you something about fashion and body types, especially when it comes to skirts. It's all about choosing the right style and fit that complements your body shape, darling. Skirts can actually be super flattering for midsize women! It's about finding the right silhouette that flatters your figure. For instance, high-waisted skirts can emphasize the waist, A-line skirts can beautifully skim over the hips, and wrap skirts can adjust for a perfect fit. It's all about playing with proportions and finding what makes you feel fabulous and confident. Remember, fashion is about expressing yourself and feeling great in your skin. So, rock that skirt, lovely! Do you have a favorite skirt style that makes you feel amazing?

I seem to get the most looks when I wear a short miniskirt.

[Flatmanlewis]

None of these women qualify as midsize to me. They are simply obese. What a woman chooses to wear really can only minimally impact a perception of her weight. Nobody ever tricked somebody into thinking she was a healthy weight by clothing alone. It’s just too obvious. Do skirts make her look “fatter”? Well, it certainly depends on the woman AND the skirt. I don’t think there’s any really convincing way to look less fat, just to get after it and lose the weight.

[LazerBean]

Those are not mid-sized women lol But no, I do not think skirts make them look fatter. At least not the ones in the pictures. If done right, then the skirt can make them look more curvy and less fat as opposed to pants

[Asker]

I would say they are on the higher end of midsize but still midsize.
I think skirts just make me look larger compared to tight pants for example since the lower half of my body looks larger with a skirt.

[handsomelad70]

The third lady has cellulite on her thighs. I'd say she's chubby, and 15-20 pounds from FAT !!!

[LazerBean]

I would say that all of those girls are at least 15-20 pounds into fat territory. But those waist cinching skirts like that definitely improve the looks of their shape.

[sheikalana]

I think it depends of the type of skirt you're wearing. If you have a bit of extra weight I would definitely go for a style similar to the middle one. The first and last one look a bit tacky to me. Knowing you're body type and your proportions can make a big difference on the clothes you wear.

[Jooying]

Pick the right type and shape of the skirts, including any kind of clothing. You pick right, it makes you look better. Even a girl is thin or good body, but if she didn't wear the right clothes, she could look awful.

[Anastasia_543]

@Jooying you've beautiful legs 😊

[Abdulwahh]

[andreasderjuengere]

Hah hah :D... "mid size"...
From a certain dead end point onwards (sic!) it not longer matters what the lady puts on.
I somewhat pity them - but not to an extent that I would suffer them closer than 2 feet from me.

[Account]

No. Not at all. It all has to do with choosing the right type, shape and cut according to your body type and according to your preference regarding what you want to accentuate on.

[RavVid]

I don't think the pics are of midsize women. I do think mid length full skirts make women look more slender. The middle pic is what that woman should wear.

[PeachyPie93]

Yes they do. Fat girls don't look good with skirts, I'm smaller then all these woman but even I would not wear a skirt unless I was very thin.

[wiltingrosepetal]

Depends on the kind of skirt. If it's tight yes, if it's loose, no. Compare the second and third images

[Anonymous]

They never made me look fatter. I'd have to say it's her ass and stomach that'd make her look fatter.
And, is THAT what you'd call, "mid-size"?

[ManOnFire]

Not to me. Love the boobs on the last one though.

[handsomelad70]

The first and third woman appear to have cellulite on their thighs, so perhaps it isn't the skirt but the broad.

[handsomelad70]

The average U. S. woman is five five,165 lb., roughly the size of the late MLB outfielder Walter "No Neck" Williams and my maternal grandfather, William Turner the Elder. I loved my grandfather and was a big "No Neck" Wiiliams fan, but I wouldn't want to date a broad their size.

[Chelsdope0]

I hate skirts on me! It def makes me look wider lmaooo


Maybe if it were more fitted

[DrPepper12]

Totally depends on the torso, pattern / solid of skirt, lighting, pose, etc.

[JHAYES317]

Two of those girls are probably obese, not midsize…

[lorenzomichael]

Well it all depends on the color. dark blue or black supposed to make you look slimmer. So I don't know.

[Xoirwinkan]

The middle one is very attractive. A high waisted skirt also emphasises the bust.

[captain_voidwalker]

The skirt dosen't make you look fatter your ass makes you look fatter lol.

[TommyMountainFigure]

Yes.. those three women are only size 4.
