From time to time, the question of how to choose a dress arises before every girl. The reasons can be very different. This can be a dress for your prom at school, an outfit for a friend's wedding, or a New Year's party. To look amazing in a dress, you should choose it based on your body type.
Dress by body type
The luxurious material of an evening dress and expensive jewelry can go unnoticed if the outfit is chosen illiterately. Even the simplest dress, which favorably emphasizes the dignity, will look much better, pompous vamp style on a woman with a wide waist. At a party, absolutely any woman can look exquisite if her dress suits her type of figure. These are what they are:
-
'Hourglass'. The most attractive female figure is associated with them. Smooth body curves, balanced hips and shoulders – all in harmony. Any dress will look perfect on such a figure, it is important that the size is chosen correctly. If, with such a figure, the body weight is large enough, an emphasis should be placed in the form of a belt on a thin waist and then large hips and bust will not be in the foreground.
-
'Inverted triangle'. In this case, the shoulders are rather massive in contrast to the narrow hips and thin legs. For such a figure, a medium-length dress with a V-neck is suitable. To visually expand the hips, you can choose a narrow skirt with a peplum.
-
'Triangle'. This silhouette with narrow shoulders and wide hips can be matched by a long, flowing draped skirt that smoothly fits the hips, and the shoulders can be decorated with sleeves-lanterns, wide straps or a cowl collar.
-
'Rectangle'. If the shoulders, waist and hips are at the same level, then you can save the situation by focusing on slender legs. This requires a knee-length dress or a couple of centimeters below.
-
'Oval'. This type of figure is characterized by narrow hips and shoulders, which are strikingly different from a wide waist. Moreover, the weight category of the owners of such a figure can be very different. For such women, a slightly flared bottom, decorated with a beautiful drapery and a shallow neckline, is recommended. A dress-shirt or a dress-tunic will look great on an oval figure.
Choosing the length of the dress
Many women want to shine in a flowing dress to the floor, but, unfortunately, not everyone understands that it is not suitable for everyone:
-
slender, tall girls, up to 175 cm tall, will look attractive in a long dress; high growth implies a reduction in the length of the outfit;
-
short stature, and these are all those who are below 165 cm, will make an unfortunate choice if they buy a dress to the floor; the length of a midi or mini is better.
