FASHION TIPS
Fashion tips for petite women:
If you’ve a short neck avoid wearing high collared clothes. Avoid short necklaces too. To elongate your neck, wear a deep neck and a long necklace that falls few inches above your navel.
Wearing shoes with strings will make you appear even shorter. Avoid that at all costs. Wearing an open shoe with nothing at the ankle, just a strap to hold the toes together will make your legs look longer.
Do not wear over all prints. They’ll make you thinner. Wear prints that have something here or there and preferably over your figure’s assets (like well shapes abs, tones arms, etc) to catch more attention in that area.
Add a belt or a scarf to your skirt or pants that hangs downward toward your legs. It will add height to them.
Wear contrasting colors and fitted lines to flatter your figure.
Fashion tips for tall women:
You can indulge in everything to be avoided by petite women. And stay away from all suggestions made to them.
To cut height around your waist area wear your tops over pants or skirts.
Big belts will work fine for you just don’t wear them too tight.
Avoid very short skirts. They’ll show off your never-ending legs and will add height.
Similarly very long skirts will make your taller.
Fashion tips for pear-shaped women (heavy on the lower body):
Vertical lines will definitely slim you down.
Wear a lighter color on top and a really dark shade on your lower body. This way the light colored top catches more attention and your dark lower remains unnoticed.
Remember to make your bottom smaller you can add broadness to your upper body to make your look more proportionate and thinner down below. E.g.: wear dresses or tops with small soft shoulder pads.
Avoid skirts that are tapered. Free flowing a-line skirts and dresses are the key to camouflage saddlebags.
Fashion tips for apple-shaped women (heavy on the top):
Avoid tops with a lot of detailing and ruffling or rouching. Keep it simple and clean with soft flowing fabrics.
Do not wear very tight or clingy synthetic tops that enhance your problematic areas.
Go for light colors for you lowers and wear darker shades on top.
Use detailing, pleating, etc on your skirt or pant to attract attention there.
V-necks will make your bosoms look smaller.
Wear a wrap top to cover your stomach. Using layering in the same color and fabric here will have a slimming effect.
Under no circumstances wear anything shoulder padded. Wear thin and light materials on top only.
Now whether you are tall or small, fat, or thin on top or bottom you know the basics to follow and dress right for your type. Start experimenting, suit your personal needs, and make new rules that work even better.
Happy shopping!
