GET THE FASHION FACTS:

What is a Peplum Hem? A Peplum Hem starts at the waist of women's shirts, dresses or jackets and flares out over the hips creating a skirted look for your torso.

Why are Peplum Hems so flattering? The Peplum Hem is a favorite because it helps create an hourglass silhouette by flaring out right at the waist, this makes the waist look smaller in comparison to the shoulders and hips. A Peplum Hem also creates the illusion of curves and provides excellent coverage for your stomach and hips without looking baggy or oversized.

How do you style a Peplum Hem? To avoid looking bulky, create a balanced look with skinny jeans, leggings, pencil skirts and straight-leg trousers. Pairing a Peplum Hem with heels or pointed flats also helps to create a tall, lean silhouette.
