We have all been through this scenario, let me picture it for you… You saw a dress online because it looked good on the model, you bought without caring about the price because it was just so beautiful, however, when you tried it it did not look as good as it did on the model, I can just sense the flashback coming. And then you blame your body shape for the way you look, however, but you can not blame it, the reason is what type of dresses you pick for yourself. 

Every body-type requires different types of clothing and contrasts, however it is not always easy to decide and it is understandable, but with a little knowledge and research, you can slay the curves you have without having to worry about anything else. 

As much as fashion is about looking great and fashionable, it is also about being confident and comfortable with what you wear. 

However, regardless of everything, you need to first know about what body type you have… and it can be quite difficult to understand…

The body types are: 

Apple Body Shape

Hourglass Body Shape

Pear Body Shape

Rectangle Body Shape

Triangle Body Shape

How to dress for Apple Body Shape? 

When choosing clothes for an apple body shape, focus on tops. Anything that draws attention to the shoulders, bust, and neckline is a great choice. Shirts with boat necks, square necks, and other necklines that draw attention to the collarbones are also flattering.

What not to wear for Apple Body Shape

To dress your apple-shaped body, you'll want to take attention away from your middle, since it's already full. To draw attention away from your middle, avoid low shorts or pants, high-cut shirts, or any fabric length that cuts off below or above your middle.

 

How to dress for Hourglass Body Shape?

Invest in good shapewear, bras, or general outfit support. Avoid boxy clothing that has no defined waist. Embrace your curves. Define your waist. Use strategic lines for a lengthening effect. If you're wearing something with vertical stripes, make sure they are not too wide or bold.

What not to? 

‍Avoid boxy and straight skirt styles as well as stiff fabrics. Keep away from skirts with big voluminous pockets, ruffles, darts or other embellishments around the hips unless you balance them with details around the chest. Finally, stay away from low-waisted skirts since these would add bulk to the lower body.

How to dress for Pear Body Shape? 

For a pear shaped body, you should always try to wear wider and lower necklines like square neck, boat and cowl necklines. Off shoulder neck is your best friend in necklines as it widens your shoulder the most. Shoulder pads also could do wonders to your look.

What not to? 

‍Avoid skinny trousers that cling to the hips and thighs, which would draw attention to this area. Also, stay away from big side and back pockets, as well as distressed denim, turn-ups, and other embellishments on jeans. These would attract attention to your lower body and make your upper half look even smaller.

How to dress for Rectangle Body Shape? 

Pull in the waist with belts or nipped garments. Wear darker colours around your waist area - such as a dark belt. Avoid clothes that end at the waist or embellish it. Don't tuck tops into trousers or skirts. 

What not to? 

Avoid dresses that are overarching, they look very consuming and will not look great.

How to dress for Triangle Body Shop?

Soften the broad shoulder line with soft, draping, and weighty fabrics. Avoid wide necklines that broaden the shoulders and other strong shoulder details (eg shoulder pads). Steer clear of patterns on your tops and scarves around your neck and shoulders. Keep your upper body clean and uncluttered. 

What not to?

Don't wear clothes that create more volume on the shoulders. Don't wear wide and straight necklines. Don't wear loud patterns and heavy detailing around the neck and shoulders. Don't wear tight trousers and narrow hemlines.
