Work these

Fitted Tank

A fitted tank top or vest is a Bricks best friend.Find one with a slight curve in it and use it over other tops to cling to your frame .

Fitted Knit

A knit will cling to your body and with the right detailing will help to create the waist that you need. This particular top will open up your chest and the banding at the waist effectively draws a waist-line in.

High Wrapped Dress

This dress is great for anyone except those with very small breasts and particularly great for the Brick.
