Your Complete Guide To Dressing For Your Body Type To Accentuate The Positives

March 21, 2018 by John & Hannah

As a woman, you know very well that you have become more empowered – we’re stronger, we’re fierce, we’re woman, after all – and this is all too true, especially today. Being a woman in these times is definitely a great feeling, but you also want to accentuate whatever positive bodily attributes you have and dress up in a way that flatters your body shape and makes you feel good. If you want to dress properly and according to your body type, here’s your complete guide.

 

Identify your shape

All women have different shapes, whether you’re pear-shaped, hourglass-shaped (think Marilyn Monroe), apple-shaped, or athletic-shaped. If you’re pear-shaped, your waist is often larger compared to your bust, and your shoulders and arms may be slim, but your hips may be wide. If you’re hourglass-shaped, you probably have a curvy body, a waist that’s well-defined, and have even measurements for your hips and bust. Women who are apple-shaped tend to have good proportions, although more weight is carried on your bust and your mid-section. Athletic-shaped women have strong shoulders and hips, with almost the same measurements for both, with weight that is also evenly-distributed through the body.

How to dress according to your body type

  • Pear-shaped

If you’re pear-shaped, concentrate on elongating your figure and balancing it off by emphasizing your top or bust area; go for off-the-shoulder dresses, A-line skirts which can highlight the smallest portion of your waist, and embellished, patterned, or embroidered tops. Boot-cut pants look great on you as well.

  • Hourglass-shaped

If you’re hourglass-shaped, accentuate your curves rather than hide them. Emphasize your small waist with a jacket that’s belted at the waist, a crop top, and a wrap dress. For pants, go for wide-legged ones with belted waists, and for skirts, choose pencil skirts – they’ll make you look extra glam.

  • Apple-shaped

If you’re apple-shaped, focus on highlighting your legs and shoulders and decreasing the appearance of your mid-section. Swing coats work best, and flowy tops make you look stylish and attractive. For skirts, opt for high-waisted frilly or circle skirts, and when it comes to dresses, a shift dress is always a great choice. An extra tip: most females with apple shapes have legs that are shapely, so don’t be afraid to show them off.

Of course, every other part of your body should be properly showcased as well – we’re talking specifically about your face and hands and feet. Your face should have just the right amount of makeup (not too much, and not too little), and your hands and feet should be clean and well-kept. If you want some extra oomph, why not dress up your nails with press-on nails try imPRESS Manicure nail designs by Christian Siriano. Nail designs right from the hottest fashion shows. They come in an array of colors and designs. The point is to know when you look good – and maximize it.
