Shop by Style

Choosing the perfect dress is an art. You must consider many factors like colour, theme, occasion, personal style, etc. Body type also matters a lot when you choose a dress. It is essential to shop according to our body type so that the outfit looks good on us. Everyone is beautiful; it’s a fact. But certain dress styles can downplay our best features and highlight our insecurities.

Here are some body types and the styles that flatter them the most.

1. Apple Body

If you have broad shoulders and a waist with slim limbs, you have an apple body shape. opt for pieces that flaunt your shoulders and midsection, off-shoulder evening gowns or long-sleeve dresses with a plunging neckline suit you very well.

2. Pear Body 

Halter necks will look stunning on this body type. Alternatively, one-shoulder dresses with a flowy skirt will highlight your slim waist and well-proportioned arms.

3. Curvy Body

You should focus on highlighting your fuller bust with a strapless or sleeveless dress that fits your body. Formal dresses with flowy skirts will look stunning on you.

4. Slender Body

Slender body shapes have a slim but tall structure. Go for sweetheart necklines and short sleeves dresses to highlight your beautiful frame. If you are on the shorter side, a dress with a belt will give the illusion of taller legs.

5. Hourglass Body 

It is a coveted body shape since it has well-proportionate busts and hips with a narrow waist. Bodycon dresses with high necklines and low-cut backs flatter this body type.
