When choosing a wardrobe, you need to be guided not only by the taste and the most appropriate style, but also take into account your shape and type of figure. We have collected recommendations from Glamour.com magazine that will facilitate your choice of dresses, coats and skirts, depending on your proportions.

Slender rectangular figure

If you have a rectangular shape and your waist is almost the same as your shoulders and hips, and your body is slim and slender, you should have slender legs in the foreground. This is your undoubted trump card. Give your body more femininity by choosing puffy skirts with a pronounced, accented waist. They optically highlight the hips, giving them the right amount, and thereby bring the shape of your figure closer to the ideal - the hourglass effect.

Volumetric or rounded rectangle

If your figure is without a pronounced waist, and your shoulders and hips are the same width, and your type is characterized by rounded shapes, a pencil skirt will make you visually slimmer, which will also optically stretch the body, making it slimmer.

Type of shape - inverted triangle

If your shoulders are wider than your hips, and your body shape is lean and athletic, the proportions of your body will help balance your skirt, with a deliberately underlined hip line. This can be achieved with the help of rounded details, such as a decorative belt or a small extension of the skirt around the hips. Choosing this type of skirt or dress, your figure will look proportionally and at the same time feminine.

Pear shape type

If your hips are much wider than your shoulders, and your waist is thin, but the buttocks are round and full, you are a pear. Mask unnecessary, and emphasize their merits! Choose skirts of medium size and high waist to even out the proportions, and your figure will look visually proportionate.

Type of figure X

If your hips and shoulders are the same width, but you want to emphasize a thin waist, and create a more feminine desired body shape, choose skirts of the so-called A-type with an average waist level, which look very elegant and feminine, and also create a slim waist effect.

Type of figure "apple"

If the shape of your body corresponds to the type of "apple", you can cope with extra pounds, masking the problem areas of the figure. Choose a skirt straight cut to the knee. Waist should not be either too high or too low. Thus, the proportions of the body look more balanced and make it visually thinner and slimmer.

Type of figure - hourglass

You can just be proud of this type of figure. Almost everything suits you! It is especially recommended to wear puffy skirts and dresses to emphasize the waist, as well as pencil skirts adjacent to the body, which effectively emphasize the figure.

Miniature figure

If you are a representative of a miniature figure - short and slender, then when choosing skirts and dresses, pay attention to the length of the knee or the ankles. This length of the skirt and dress will not let you look even shorter than you really are. Also choose skirts of average pomp, otherwise the skirt can cause the effect of something excessively heavy and bulky, and make the figure heavier.
