BODY SHAPE GUIDE FOR DRESSES

APPLE SHAPE – CREATE BALANCE & LIGHTNESS

• Choose empire cuts that sit just below the bust

• Smocked details add shape to the upper body

• Dresses above the knee highlight your legs

• Light, airy fabrics create graceful movement

These cuts draw attention away from the midsection and create a calm, balanced silhouette.

INVERTED TRIANGLE – SOFTEN SHOULDERS & BALANCE HIPS

• A-line dresses create beautiful symmetry

• Tiers or soft pleats add volume to the bottom

• Define the waist with belts or ties

• V-necklines elongate the neck and add elegance

PEAR SHAPE – DRAW ATTENTION UPWARDS

• Puff sleeves or light ruffles at the shoulders

• Patterns and colours on the upper body

• Fitted waists with a flared skirt

• Hemlines just below the knee balance the look

RECTANGLE SHAPE – CREATE CURVES

• Wrap dresses naturally define the waist

• Asymmetric cuts add visual interest

• Slits or cut-outs give an edge

• Light draping creates the illusion of curves

HOURGLASS SHAPE – SHOW OFF YOUR NATURAL LINES

• Fitted or waist-accentuating cuts work well

• Wrap styles highlight your middle beautifully

• Belts further define the waist

• Stretch fabrics offer comfort and freedom
