Fashion is something that should be followed with discernment. Indeed, not all trends are appropriate for everyone. Moreover, what makes a look successful does not only lie in the beauty of the clothes and accessories. Indeed, it is not enough to have distinguished clothes to look good. Respecting one’s body shape is an important piece of advice that women have every interest in following.
Determine your morphology
Generally speaking, dressing well for a woman begins with the study of her morphology. You should know that there are generally at least six types of morphology for women. These include the A morphology, the 8 morphology, the X morphology, the O morphology, the V morphology, and finally the H morphology. All these silhouettes are identifiable from different characteristics such as the alignment of the shoulders, waist, and hips, or the presence of a marked waist or not.
In short, observing every detail of the body in general (shoulder width, waist size, hip size, chest size, etc.) is a good start to knowing which clothes will suit us or not. For example, if we opt for wearing a personalized t-shirt, the effect of the pattern and designs can be completely modified by the size of the person’s chest or stomach. Choosing a personalized t-shirt will therefore also be done by taking into account the person’s morphology.
Choosing the look to sport
Once you have determined your body shape, it is also essential to start choosing a suitable look to be flawless in terms of clothing. To do this, it is recommended to rely on your aspirations. If you don’t have a specific idea yet, the best thing to do is to look for inspiration. This could be the look of a public figure or a movie celebrity.
It is still advisable not to stray from the inspirations that match our body shape. Once the look is found, the next step will be to identify the different elements that compose it. This is essential because the look cannot be complete without all the pieces that are necessary for it. Finally, in order not to lose sight of your goal in terms of look, establish an inspiration board that will bring together all the images of outfits that you like.
Choose the most suitable parts
When it comes to the pieces that are best suited to a body shape, it is strongly recommended to always rely on models that match your body shape. It is from these pieces that can be described as standard that you can create various looks with composition or superposition techniques. The following few examples will perfectly illustrate the pieces to choose for a particular body shape:
- X-shaped body: long skirt/high waist/trapeze…,jeggins, flare/boyfriend/straight jeans…, colorful top/sleeveless/peplum…
- 8-shaped body shape: trapeze/neckline/empire dress, flowing top, belted tunics, fitted top
- A-shaped body: fitted jackets, bombers, coats with large collars, high-waisted/skater/ball skirts, etc.
- H-shaped body shape: shirt dress/wrap dress, fancy top/layered top, etc.
These suggestions are completely adaptable to the desires of fashion lovers. Indeed, the pieces listed can be completely adapted according to the wishes of those who wear them and especially the trends of the moment. The best tip to avoid making a mistake would also be to ask an image professional for help.
