I was browsing the site and found some tips that might be helpful..

Figure 8
1. Wearing the right neckline: Accentuate your face, neck, and bust with open collars and V necklines.

2. Picking Pants: Straight or Wide leg pants will help balance your figure. You also look good in Capri or Side Slit pants, which help show off your shapely legs.

3. Color Counts: Try wearing colors a tone lighter on top to gently draw attention upward.

4. Place Your Patterns Properly: Stick to vertical patterns and prints that aren't too busy in order to elongate your silhouette. Your figure also handles patterns better on top.

5. Dressing it Up: Shirt dresses and wrap dresses are sure to slim your silhouette. Also, dresses with shoulder necklines or asymmetric detailing work well for flattering the figure 8.

6. Sleek Sleeves: Our figure 8 friends look best in ¾ length and bell sleeves. Slightly shirred sleeves or batwing sleeves are also great options for slimming your arms.

7. Outerwear and Accessories: Long tailored jackets in dark solids work well on your figure, especially worn over outfits of a lighter tone. For short coats, try choosing fitted jackets with ¾ length sleeves.

8. Flattering Fabrics: Avoid stiff, heavy, or bulky fabrics. Choose lighter, draping fabrics to cuddle your curves.

9. Buckle that Belt: Accessory belts are a great a way to hide problem areas or make specific garments work better for you. Sometimes a top or sweater will be cut so that it flatters everything except that tummy bulge. An accessory belt can be the perfect solution, so be sure to keep a few in your closet.

10. Feel Fabulous: The best way to look great is to feel great. Whatever you wear, wear it with confidence and accessorize it with a smile.
