There is no imitation to playing dress up, heck the flexibility depends on your creativity. It is important to dress your body and radiate confidence through what you wear. The key point is to focus on the uniqueness of your curves. At the end of it, a flattering look makes us walk like we have a spring on our legs; that’s confidence.

Apple, pear and hourglass are the common names used to describe the women shapes. Depending on your weight and height, one can be a blend of two shapes.

Apple shapes also known as diamond or oval shape is characterized by a bigger upper body and a smaller lower body. To achieve a flattering look, try and create an illusion of a smaller waist with your outfits. Create an illusion of an hour glass. Belts are a best friend for an apple shaped physique.

Pear shaped is characterized by wide hips, small defining waist, thick thighs and legs. They somewhat border the hourglass shape. The style goal or a pear shaped is to find outfits that fit and blend well at the bottom to fit the thick thighs.

Hourglass shaped has a balance and proportion of the physique. It is characterized by a full waist, full bottom and large chest just like the apple shaped. Anything goes with an hourglass figure as long as the curves are flattered.

Rectangle shape is characterized with an undefined waist, same chest and hip size. Bold colour outfits work best for this shape and any outfit that projects curviness.
