Hey there, fashionista!
Today, we’re exploring the art of style for different body types, helping you discover your signature look while dressing to accentuate your curves. Curves and body shapes are what make us uniquely women, and they deserve to be celebrated! But finding outfits that truly flatter different body types can sometimes feel challenging.
That’s where I come in. I’m here to give you some tips on how to choose clothes that accentuate your best features and camouflage any areas you’re not as proud of.
Different body types
Understanding how to dress for your body type is essential to feeling confident and looking your best. There are five main body types: apple, pear, hourglass, rectangle, and inverted triangle. Let’s take a closer look at how to style each of these different body types to highlight your unique features and enhance your personal style.
Apple:
Apple-shaped women have a wider waistline and narrower hips and shoulders. For apple-shaped women, the goal is to draw attention away from the waist and towards the bustline and legs. V-neck tops are a great way to do this, as they create the illusion of a longer neck and slimmer torso. Wrap tops are also a good choice, as they cinch in the waistline. Empire waist tops and dresses are also flattering, as they create a flowy silhouette that skims over the waist.
When choosing bottoms, apple-shaped women should look for styles that accentuate their legs. A-line skirts and dresses are a great choice, as they flare out at the hips and create the illusion of a more balanced figure. High-waisted pants are also a good choice, as they help to define the waistline.
Pear:
Pear-shaped women have wider hips and narrower shoulders than their waistline. For pear-shaped women, the goal is to balance out the hips and shoulders by drawing attention to the waistline. Off-the-shoulder tops and boat neck tops are a great way to do this, as they expose the collarbones and neck. Tops with shoulder pads are also a good choice, as they add volume to the shoulders. Peplum tops are also flattering, as they create a waistline and add volume to the hips.
When choosing bottoms, pear-shaped women should look for styles that skim over the hips and accentuate the waistline. Bootcut jeans and flared pants are a great choice, as they balance out the hips and shoulders. A-line skirts and dresses are also a good choice, as they flare out at the hips and create the illusion of a more balanced figure.
Hourglass:
Hourglass-shaped women have a balanced waistline, hips, and shoulders. Hourglass-shaped women are lucky, as they can wear just about any style of clothing and look great! But to really accentuate their curves, they should look for clothes that cinch in the waistline. Wrap dresses, peplum tops, and fitted tops are all great options.
When choosing bottoms, hourglass-shaped women can wear just about any style. Pencil skirts, high-waisted jeans, and A-line skirts and dresses all look great on an hourglass figure.

Rectangle:
Rectangular-shaped women have a straight waistline, hips, and shoulders.
For rectangular-shaped women, the goal is to create the illusion of a waistline. Peplum tops are a great way to do this, as they add volume to the hips and create a waistline. Wrap tops are also a good choice, as they cinch in the waist. Belts can also be used to create the illusion of a waistline.
When choosing bottoms, rectangular-shaped women should look for styles that create volume on the hips and thighs. High-waisted pants are a great choice, as they help to define the waistline. Skirts with volume, like A-line skirts and full skirts, are also a good choice.
Inverted triangle:
Inverted triangle-shaped women have wider shoulders than their hips and waistline.
For inverted triangle-shaped women, the goal is to balance out the shoulders by drawing attention to the hips and legs. Off-the-shoulder tops and boat neck tops are a great way to do this, as they expose the collarbones and neck. Tops with ruffles or embellishments are also a good choice, as they add volume to the bustline. Peplum tops are also flattering, as they create a waistline and add volume to the hips.
When choosing bottoms, inverted triangle-shaped women should look for styles that accentuate the hips and legs. A-line skirts and dresses are a great option, as they flare out at the hips and create the illusion of a more balanced figure. Bootcut jeans and flared pants are also a good choice, as they balance out the shoulders and hips.
No matter what your body type is, there are clothes out there that will flatter your figure. So don’t be afraid to experiment and have fun with fashion.
