The empire waist has been an answer to many designer problems that women had failed to get a solution to. Want to flatter your bust or it’s the attempt to hide that belly that has always been a problem? Join the rest of the designers who have found the secret in the empire waist designs.

Yes, perhaps we have mistaken empire waist dresses for only brides’ maids or cocktail dinners. Well, this elegant style is multipurpose and suits every function. Only the colour matters.

Brighter and sparkling colours of empire high waist dresses are fit for formal functions while dull colours are for the casually smart look. It’s a must for every woman, thin or fat, short or tall to at least have two empire waist designs in their closets.

"My closet has changed to having only empire waist tops. They flatter my bust better than any other top has ever done, "says Jane Wanyirigira.

Being a full bodied lady, Wanyirigira had failed to get an outfit that flatters her big bust as well give her the smartest look. When she tried an empire top, smartness came her way, there and then. An empire waist attire holds the breasts reasonably firm giving one the best bust.

"I opted for empire waist because I have very thin breasts,” says Sheila Kazungu. Indeed when that empire top flatters your breasts, they look slightly full-sized and firm. Others credit empire waists for hiding what the ladies dread most ‘big tummies’.

Unlike other fashions that are tight fitting from top to bottom, empire attire freely flows down. It’s only tight around the bust but loosens right from under the breast line.

"The empire waist will lessen your tummy to give you a more elegant slim and elegant look, that’s why it’s more ideal for wedding gowns,” says Fortunate Musabyimana a designer and hair dresser.

For people who are sure of their neckline, the empire waist will bring out all those looks. For short ladies, go for the short empire waist dresses worn with high heels. You’ll look smarter, simpler and taller.

As for our full bodied friends, the best of an empire dress you shouldn’t miss is the medium one. It will flatter your physical features like the legs and the hip curves. And if slender, go for a long empire dress, you’ll be smart and dissent.

Get that goddess appearance that you have always loved. Remember the way you dress-up can make you look like a real princess. Get that empire outfit. Though not yet common in town, checkout lady shops in Nyamirambo. You could be lucky.
