How to fill up a long shirt?
To look neat and stylish. You should learn to refuel an elongated shirt correctly. Below we will present some recommendations of professional stylists.
To keep your bow tidy, first put on a shirt and button all buttons, then put on pants or a skirt. If your shirt is selected by size, then it will refuel perfectly. With the wrong size, your tucked shirt will have wrinkles or puff.
If your shirt is loose-fitting and you would like to tuck it in, then follow a simple recommendation - fold the sides of the shirt along the seam line and tuck it in.
