How to pose and hide your tummy is to have something cover it while standing up.

Example:

Mom Violy is hiding it by placing one arm on her waist and has a shoulder bag covering it up. 

Carmina has a blazer to cover her stomach.


While seating down we can have an object hide it from us example a table seated down or a bag that we are currently using on that day.



The trend is tucking in your blouses or top on your skirts/pants/shorts either way can find a way to hide your stomach from your wardrobe.

Just a tip when you plan to buy new set of clothing for you and if you have the same problem with us.
