VOLUME
Extra volume in clothing is everywhere. The general silhouette is showing a growing acceptance of fullness in all areas. That easy fullness is likely to last a year or so before it begins to deflate to more form fitting lines again.
Rules for Wearing Volume Autumn Winter 2006/7
Fashion Wardrobe Tip - Whatever your physique the trick to carrying off volume is to avoid choosing a garment that makes the body look over burdened with masses of fabric. You do not want to look like a walking duvet!
If you have a wide collar opt for a streamlined look below the collar line.
If you have volume in your sleeves try to have some waist definition.
If you wear full wide trousers, top them with a body defining neat top or a cropped jacket.
If you wear skinny jeans or leggings you can afford to have a more voluminous garment like a down puffy parka or fur trimmed jacket on the top half.
If you have good waist, but saddle bag thighs cover the thighs with a cinched waist fuller skirt with hemline interest.
Wear volume to look up to date, but wear volume in moderation.
Think of this volume in moderation rule before you buy.

cute collages! my volume of choice is a sexy but baggy shirt on top of tight jeans or a skirt to show the legs (but not too mini, b/c then it will look like I'm wearing no skirt at all).
