This Is Find out how to "French Tuck" Your Blouse Like a Type Skilled

Tucking your shirt into jeans, skirts or trousers isn’t exactly a new phenomenon. In fact, many of us have been doing it since our decidedly less stylish teenage years. But with high-waisted styles and looser fitting denim now firmly taking the lead over hip-hugging skinnies, tucking in everything from T-shirts and printed blouses to dressy evening tops has become de rigueur. If you missed that memo, however, we’re pretty sure you’ll have caught the Queer Eye stance on the whole thing. Especially since #FrenchTuck has begun trending on Instagram.

Since season two of the cult Netflix show aired earlier this month, Google searches for stylist Tan France’s “French tuck” have skyrocketed. If you’re not yet a fan of the show (you will be soon—trust us), the French tuck is simply the art of tucking in a shirt at the front while leaving the back loose. According to France, who sports the look regularly, this simple tucking technique instantly adds polish to any look and can elongate the body too, helping to slim or add balance to your silhouette.

Loving the idea of a French tuck? Keep scrolling to see the most stylish way of tucking in your shirt in action, plus all the shopping options you’ll need to nail the look.

Style Notes: Keep a T-shirt-and-midi-skirt combo feeling fresh by just tucking in the front. Adding polished accessories (like Giovanna Engelbert Battaglia did here) will help keep things on point.

Style Notes: If you’re going for a classic denim-and-white-shirt look, the French tuck can add that final touch of considered styling.

Style Notes: Chunky knitwear and oversized jumpers are ideal for the French tuck. It’ll stop the top from taking over your whole outfit, and as Tan France says, help to elongate your body.

Style Notes: Floaty blouses can often swamp small frames, which is where the French tuck comes in handy. You’ll bring balance back to your silhouette (like Sarah Brody, pictured above) without losing the effect of your blouse.
