How To Dress For Your BodyType




With changing trends and evolving style statements, it's imperative to keep modifying your closet with the ongoing fashion trends. Well, fashion is all about feeling great in who you are but to get the best out of fashion, it's important to style up according to who you are and what your body type demands. Each body type is uniquely fit for some particular styles. It's just like the lock and key, certain dresses are meant to fit better based on the beautiful body type you own.

In this article, we’ll help you find the styles that can match your body type and hence are the BEST buy for your closet. To begin with, let's find out what your body type is:

Pear shapes aka triangular body type: In this body shape waist is wider than the bust and the rear is heavier. Also, shoulders are narrow as compared to the butt.

Hourglass body type: A Curvy body type with almost Equal waist and hips.

Apple body type: The bust and hips are fuller. Shoulders are wide and the waistline is not well defined.

Athletic or rectangular body type: Here the shoulders and hip measurements are almost equal. The waist line is also almost equal giving a non- curvy but rectangular appearance.

Now, I hope you’re clear about your body type. Let’s move ahead about the best dress for your body type:

Best Dress for Apple Body Type: Apple body type women are heavier on the top and leaner downside. So the idea is to wear something that highlights your strengths and hides the heaviness of the top. We recommend V- necklines and dresses that flaunt your legs. Flared bottoms like palazzos are best for you to balance the body shape and also monochromatic colours would look the best. Avoid body hugging dresses!

Best Dress for Hourglass Body Type: With perfect curves, you must wear the dresses to flaunt the shape. Body hugging dresses are meant for you. You must wear dresses that highlight your curves. Also, wearing belts on the waist or even below the belly button would give a great appeal to your overall look. However, we recommend to strictly avoid pairing loose tops with loose bottom wears!

Best Dress for Pear Shaped Body Type: Here, the bottom is much heavier than the top, so aim to dress very accurately that can create an illusion of the hourglass shape. You must prefer loose bottoms with flared tops, tight skirts, skinny jeans, sweetheart or V- necklines. However, avoid teaming up loose bottoms with skinny tops.

Best Dress for Rectangular Body Type: Dress up to accentuate your arms and legs as they are your strengths. Prefer A- line skirts, layered top , strapless designs are all meant for you. However, avoid overarching dresses as they can make you look odd.

So, now that you know what to wear and what to avoid, I believe you are all set to go on the shopping spree with your best friend. To add on, we have a new best friend for the ladies out there, www.hauteish.com is ONE STOP destination for the best outfits to match every body type.
