Luckily, it is a great advantage that there are certain clothes and style techniques that can be used to alter and enhance appearances. If you have a belly bulge, due to pregnancy, extra weight or bloating, fret no more. A protruding belly can ruin an elegant look and make one feel uncomfortable in the clothes they wear. Here are some ways one can hide a tummy pouch.
• Monochromatic dressing
This form of dressing refers to dressing in one single color. Dark colors work well, and although black is best and the most slimming, other colors such as chocolate brown, forest green, navy blue and dark purple can be used.
The clothes of top and bottom halves are in one single color which appears as a vertical line, making the person look taller and leaner. Different textures of the same color can be used, including any color accessories. This styling technique is popular in the fashion industry and was even favored by the actress Audrey Hepburn. It is great for giving an overall slimming effect not to mention hiding a bulging belly.
• Empire waist tops are great
Empire waist tops are tucked in under the bust area allowing the rest of the fabric to flow down in a very flattering manner; it's perfect for hiding a bulging belly and is slimming, especially if you wear a darker color.

Banded tops are quite a recent fashion. These are shirts that have a band at the hemline resulting in plenty of extra fabric for the tummy area- which makes it a great shirt to hide any tummy bulge.
• Slimming pants /Shape wear
Shape wear or slimming pants can flatten the tummy and make other problem areas of the body look much slimmer, they can be uncomfortable to wear, so stick to using them on special occasions, but they can work wonders. They work by compression and squeeze everything tight together as well as giving a smooth look.
• Stand straight
Many people's backs are slouched and they don't stand or sit up straight. This position can add pounds to a person, the opposite is when someone stands up or sits down with the back fully straight and chest out. This can make the belly sink in as the chest is pushed out thereby stretching the tummy area.
By wearing the right types of clothes in the right ways while taking notice to stand and sit up straight, one can effectively hide any belly bulge or give the illusion it doesn't even exist.
