Did you know there are different dresses for different body types? What I mean to say is that some dresses will flatter some body type more than others! So why waste money on dresses that might hinder you from achieving that perfect look? Below I mention the types of dresses and the body types they look the best on, read on and figure:
- Maxi Dress: These are the ones which are long and flows with empire waistlines. They are very comfortable and feminine. They give the wearer a bohemian look and can still be very sophisticating if worn right.
However, one should be careful with these if you’re short like I am. You should pick up those with solid colors or with print which is smaller than the size of your fist if you’re five feet four inch or shorter.
Maxi dresses look good on very body type buy are the best friends of those with a ruler figure that is those whose bust measurements are similar to their waist and hip measurements. And they are essentially good for those with long torsos.
- Wrap Dress: These are the ones which wrap around your body and are tied at the side or with a belt or ribbon. These universally gave a V neckline. These do wonders on a pear-shaped body by accentuating the small waist of the ladies with such body type. These are very feminine as they bring attention to the perfect proportions of the body and thus are equally loved by women with the hourglass figure who should tie them on the natural waist as opposed to others who should choose the empire waistline. Wrap dresses minimize the waist and attract attention to the bust.
- Sheath Dress: Sheath dresses are the body-hugging or the form-fitting dresses. These generally have zero or minimal embellishments on them and should be worn in solid colors only! They can be of any-length but usually they end just before the knees. If tailored appropriately, they can be a good option for women with apple-shaped figures as it can give some space for a little tummy to wiggle and hide. But these dresses are great for women with a hourglass body shape or for those with pear-shaped bodies. However, pear shaped figures need to balance out their bodies to rock this look. This can be done by adding a wrap or a little cardigan on top. Sheath dresses with a two shade little top column draws attention on the bust, thus helping them cover their problematic area.
- Peplum Dresses: These are good for those who have broad shoulders as they have a flare at the bottom that help them balance their look out as it nullifies the effect of their broad shoulders. This dress can also help out women with narrow shoulders and a wider bottom. But this would be so if the peplum dress has sleeves on it!
Girls, dresses online should be tailored, if necessary to look your best. Accessorize your outfit right and choose the appropriate footwear, and ladies, you’re good to go.
