Getting dressed is so much easier and faster when you know how to bring out the best in you. With an awareness of your body shape and what you want to enhance or distract from, here is how you can style yourself to always turn heads.
1. APPLE
If you have heavier shoulders, arms, and bust, you are likely to be apple shaped. The common issue most apple shaped people face is that the top and midriff can look out of proportion and bigger than the rest of the body.
The missing balance can be brought in by wearing deep necks and v-necks with covered shoulders. You should avoid padded or puffed shoulders. You can also draw attention to your legs and your shapely waist with clothes that fit well around the area, or get flashy with some thigh high slits.
2. PEAR
The trait of the pear body shape is heavy butt and thighs. This shape is easy to style and most outfits look great. The only risk you can run into is over enhancing the curves around your hips.
Wearing clothes that fit well around the waist and hip help draw attention to the very effeminate curves and makes for a well balanced and proportionate look. You can experiment a lot with shapes and silhouettes as well.
3. HOURGLASS
Hourglass shapes are also very easy to style, which makes them so ideal. There are few outfits which wouldn’t look good on you if you have an hourglass body shape. The freedom to experiment that comes with this body shape is really great if you like to follow trends and live on the edge with your fashion choices.
While anything is likely to look great, the best way to dress for an hourglass body is to wear things which fit smoothly to draw attention to the proportionate body.
4. RECTANGLE
The rectangular body shape is well shaped with no very pronounced curves and equally balanced upper and lower body. This shape also has a lot of scope for experimentation with clothing.
Well fitted clothes are always easy to carry with a rectangular body. Loose silhouettes and flowy dresses are also equally flattering. With the shapely limbs that come with this body shape, you should try to show them off whenever possible.
5. PEACH/ INVERTED TRIANGLE
This is the incredible athletic body shape that most people work very hard in the gym for: it is characterized by broader shoulders than the hips.
V-line dresses and straight cut jeans flatter this body shape very well by adding definition to the waist and hips. In order to enhance the naturally athletic shapes, do not forget to wear some strappy tops every now and then and get everyone swooning. Human bodies come in all beautiful shapes and sizes, and each has its own unique styling points. With a little bit of knowledge and attention, you can enhance the best parts of your body and dress to kill for every occasion.
