The below handy chart borrowed from Love Life blog (http://www.lovelifeblogireland.com/2014/01/dressng-for-your-shape-apple.html) explains our different body types and also provides some great tips for picking the right garments for your shape.
Knowing your body type and what looks best on you will help you identify the best staples for your wardrobe. If you have slight imperfections, also knowing which fabrics to avoid will help. For example, wearing clingy knits, rayons or polyesters may not be the best choice if you have a tummy. Instead, stick with forgiving fabrics– such as stretch cottons. Knowing what works and what doesn’t will also save you a lot of time, money, and aggravation)— we’ve all had that moment when we look into our closets and yell “I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR”! Here are some style ideas for how to dress for your body type:

Hourglass Shape:
Aikan – Style #11009 with Fendi Satchel and Walter Steiger Pumps
