This is a fairly obvious choice! The smock silhouette will definitely hide your food baby and even allow you to indulge even more without feeling uncomfortable. If you want a more grown-up look, choose a smock dress that doesn't flare out too much, has a thicker fabric, solid colours and a collar.

#2 High-waisted, flared bottoms

Pick an A-line skirt or loose trousers or shorts that flares out from high up on your waist! Your slim waist will be highlighted while your belly is hidden, creating a flattering look. For extra belly slimming points, pick a top in a bright colour and bottoms in a dark colour.

#3 Dress that flares out from the waist

Like the skirt, make sure the dress flares out generously from high up on your waist!

#4 Shift dress

A straight-cut shift dress creates a structured silhouette and doesn't reveal too much of your shape! Choose a thicker fabric that doesn't cling on to your skin or pick a dress with lining.

#5 Denim overall dress

Prints and colours distract the eye and make a protruding belly look less obvious!

#7 Off-shoulder or ruffles at the top

An off-shoulder silhouette and ruffles on the top half of your clothes draw attention to your upper half and away from your belly! The volume of the ruffles also makes your lower half look more balanced.

#8 T-shirt dress

This is an easy and effortlessly stylish outfit to throw on when you don't want to think about what to wear. It's great for hiding a belly too! If you want to make your outfit look more office-appropriate, simply throw on a structured jacket and complete the look with a pair of formal shoes.

#9 Shirt dress

If a t-shirt dress doesn't fit into your office dress code, go for a more formal alternative - the shirt dress! Choose one that isn't too oversized but still loose enough that there's plenty of space around your hips. You can also belt it to create a more defined silhouette. Make sure your belt sits high on your waist!

#10 Blazer

The easiest way to hide your belly is to throw on a blazer! Even if you're wearing a tight outfit, a blazer makes a food baby look less obvious from all angles. If your belly bulge is particularly prominent, button up your blazer!
