Clothes for Your Body Type

Sure, you like shopping for clothes especially when you want to keep up with the latest trends and make yourself feel better. While the choices are endless when it comes to color, cut, material and style, what you need to know is how to shop for clothes that will suit your body type. Here are some tips.

Body types differ for any women –circle (thick around the middle), rectangle (curve less from shoulder to legs), triangle (larger bottom), and hourglass (curvy and well proportioned).  You have to know your body type so that you will know what areas you can improve through proper clothing and the clothes to avoid.

For circle shaped, shop for clothes that fit loosely on the midsection and snugly elsewhere. Avoid those that catch attention in your midsection like belts, high-rise pants, and waist-tight tops. If you are rectangle shaped, go for ones that fit snugly at your middle with a flare at the bottom and do not wear dresses that either too tight or flowy. If your body is triangle shaped, avoid shapeless and oversized sweaters, and skirts with curve-hugging fabric such as silk. For the hourglass body type, do not wear tunics, oversize cardigans, and baby doll dresses.
