The bloating struggle is real, especially around that time of the month. Whether due to your hormone cycle, a carb-heavy meal, food sensitivities or too much fizz, there are plenty of reasons our bellies bloat. Unless you have an underlying health condition that needs to be addressed, know that bloating is a normal thing that we all have to manage . . . some of Us more than others!
That said, bloating is uncomfortable and typically ill-timed; you’ll lounge around the house bloat-free until it’s time to get dressed for your best friend’s wedding. Is it annoying? Yes. Is it the end of the world? Not when you can hide it so well that you almost look more svelte!
Loose fabrics, pieces that flow outward from the ribcage, smocked bodices, A-line styles and patterned pieces help to cover up bloating, but the right ones combine these elements to make you look and feel like the model you are. (Remember: You’re always a model, bloated or not!)
We gathered 20 of our favorite bloat-hiding outfits on Amazon to keep you cute, comfy and confident while you stun. So read on and make the driveway your runway!
