How to Dress for Your Body Shape

Do you want to improve your style?

Sometimes people fall into the trap of thinking they don’t look good when they simply don’t know how to dress. The clothes you wear can flatter you or make your look fall apart.

Humans come in all shapes and sizes. To dress well, throw the notion of one size fits all right out the window.

Read on to learn how to dress for your unique body shape.

Discover Your Body Type

When we look in the mirror, we do not always see what’s facing us. Often we zone in on flaws and forget about the rest.

Undress and take the time to look at your body. Seeing your body type realistically will help you wear flattering styles.

Somebody with an hourglass shape will wear very different styles from a lanky individual. Rather than seeing the imperfections in your shape, embrace your body type and dress for it.

Understanding Proportions

Dressing requires a basic sense of mathematics. It all deals with proportions.

For instance, a short skirt will lengthen the appearance of your legs. Adding high heels will add even more length without changing the girth, therefore thinning them out.

Because of the varying shapes of a torso, a shorter shirt, however, does not always make it appear longer or thinner. It depends on where it falls against the neckline, breasts, and waist, among other factors.

Playing with proportions manipulates appearances. Pay careful attention to this whenever you try on clothing.

Playing With Patterns

We cannot give fashion tips without focusing on patterns. Patterns interact with the eye to change how it visualizes something.

A funky pattern can help you stand out in a crowd. But make sure it’s catching the eye in a way that flatters your shape.

Verticle lines will make you appear lankier while horizontal lines thicken your canvas. Color blocks can make you appear square, but if they taper to the waste then they create a slimming effect.

Large, busy patterns can bring out your curves more. To hide curves, wear an item covered with a small pattern.

Wear Clothes That Fit

Squeezing into an outfit that does not fit can magnify any imperfections for anybody. On the flip side, wearing oversized clothing can make you appear like a shapeless mess.

Wear clothes that fit your body well. Dark, form-fitted clothing can slim your appearance. Especially if you layer up with a slim-fitting jacket. Browse this shapewear collection for flattering options.

Lighter colored form fits can help you accentuate your curves. Loose-fitting clothing of the correct size will help you hide areas you don’t want to broadcast. Just make sure you choose the effect you’re going for while wearing the correct size.

Embrace Your Body Shape

At least for the moment, your body shape is what you have to work with. Embrace it and wear clothes that fit it well.

By playing with lengths and patterns, you can accentuate some parts and hide others. Be the artist of your fashion!
