Suza Style Guide

Our fashion expert’s tips to flatter your Younique Suza Body! 
Remember these are only guidelines- fashion is all about fun and feeling your best! So if you feel good in it, don’t be afraid to rock it!

Your body challenge: Minimizing your torso and balancing your hips.
Parts you want to accentuate: Your ample bust, lean legs and thin arms

Tops
  • Draw attention to a full bust by wearing V-neck tops, scooped necks, cowl necks, open shirt collars and boat necks. The lower neckline helps to accentuate the long lean line.
  • Look for tops that either hit just below the hipbone or a few inches above the crotch point when wearing jeans or pants.
  • Wrap tops, mock wrap tops, tops with front/side ruching, and tops with front knot detailing are very flattering for a Suza. The strategically placed folds create curvature.
  • Select tops that float away from the waist, but that are structured on the shoulder. Think empire cuts (with or without gathers), banded tops, swing tops and trapeze silhouettes
  • Look for tops with lots of sleeve detail like flares, slits, gathers, embroideries and cuff treatment as this will attract attention to your slim, pretty arms.
Dresses
  • Try a dress with dropped waists that hit below your true waist flatter any Suza.
  • Bias cut dresses, sheaths in woven fabrications, weighty jersey dresses with front knot or under bust detailing are good options because they create a waistline but skim over the extra bits.
  • Dresses with center front ruffle details, belted shirt dresses, and mock wrap frocks with plenty of side seam ruching work well.
  • Flutter sleeve dresses that gather or tie up right under the bust will soften your torso and skim over a thicker waist to give a very feminine look.
Bottoms
  • Wear short skirts that make the most of your slim legs.
  • Go for A-line skirts to help your bottom look more in proportion with your top.
  • Wear bottoms with back pockets or back details if you have a smaller bum.
  • Sport printed or textured skirt or bottoms to draw more attention & accentuate lower half.
  • Bias cut skirts, trumpet skirts, and paneled A-line skirts are all good choices for a Suza.
  • Choose flat front, straight leg, boot cut or flared pants/jeans and avoid pleats and gathers.
Jackets & Blazers
  • Layer a structured jacket or cardigan over a top that floats away from the waist. That way you’ll create a tailored look over a voluminous layering piece.
  • Sport a single breasted structured jackets with V-shaped lapels that button below the bust line. The “V-shape” that is created in front of the body has an hourglass effect. 
  • Make sure jackets and blazers are snug on the shoulders and nipped in at the waist. 
  • Try leaving your jacket open creates a slimming vertical line down the front of the body
  • Belted trenches and classic single breasted coats with tailored lapels at both thigh and knee length look fabulous on your body.
Shoes
  • Platforms shoes. They’re chunky so they add more fullness to a rounded figure, so the eyes are tricked into seeing a more balanced figure.
  • Wedge Sandals are also great for balancing out a Suza shaped body. They give the illusion of a fuller bottom half, without unnecessarily highlighting your torso. For closed shoes, choose wedges that have rounded off toes. This will give a curvy balance to your overall appearance. 
  • Calf-Length Boots. Slouch style boots work best; if you want to add a little height chunky heels flatter best but don’t fear stilettos either. The bulkiness of the boots will counterbalance needle heels.
  • Ballet Flats to flatter your slim calves and ankles.
  • Strappy Sandals slim calves and ankles, encircling these with straps won’t make their legs look throttled. 
Accessories
  • Wear bracelets & cuffs to draw attention to your lean arms! 
  • Smaller necklaces help minimize a large chest 
  • Scarves that hang in a long line down the torso help slim and lengthen the appearance of a wider waist 
  • A bag that hangs around the hips and thighs will help balance the lower body. 
  • A clutch purse carried by the hands, messenger-style bags or cross body style bags that hang on the hips are all great choices for Suzas. 
  • Wear a belt right at the smallest part of your torso (normally right below your bust) to draw the eye in & give the illusion of a smaller waist. 
  • Add a long vertical line by using long accessories chains or a draped belt that falls down onto your slim hips.
