Wide, bold stripes make the wearer look bigger or chubbier. For skinny girls who want to look a bit fuller they must choose thicker lines with wider spaces in between. Want to slim down those extra pounds? Opt for thin stripes that are placed closer to one another.

2. Vertical or Horizontal?

Vertical stripes are known to create the illusion of a slimmer and longer appearance so a vertical striped top can help girls who want to look slimmer get there. Skinny girls who want to play around with stripes can go for horizontal patterns as they look great on a slim figure.
