When making fashion decisions, your own personal figure should be the ultimate determining factor in your final decisions. Here are a few tips to help you dress for your body type:
1. Know you measurements and shape- Be sure you know your measurements, and your body shape. Measure your bust, waist, hips and each leg. Once you have taken your measurments, observe if you are:
Hourglass - similar on the top and bottom, and smaller around the waist
Pear- larger on the bottom than the top and waist
Rectangle- similiar measurements in bust, hips and waist
Inverted Triangle- larger on the top than the waist and bottom
Knowing your shape will allow you to make better fashion choices.
2. Place Colors Properly- If you are larger in a particular area, wear neutral colors in that area. Avoid any patterns or bright colors in areas you prefer to minimize.
3. Find a Tailor- This is a great investment, because your clothes will flatter your figure if you get them tailored to your personal frame. This isn't for everyone, but it definitely gives to the best clothing fit.
4. Stick To What Looks Best- No matter what the trend, be sure it suits your frame. Don't feel pressured to wear anything that might not make you look your best. If you find a fabulous dress, buy it in multiple colors. Stick with what makes you look and feel great!
