How to dress trendy according to your body shape
We all wish to dress trendily but at the same time we want to look smart, right? Sometimes I try on something fashionable that simply does not go with my body at all, whilst other pieces may be nice for my body shape. I have gathered a bit about each body shape and how to determine what body shape you are. I have also included an ideal outfit and trend. That does not mean you’ve to stick to that trend, it’s just an idea :) Hope you like it!
Slender
How to determine if you’re slender: Light weight build, small joints, lean muscle, a flat chest, small shoulders, long limbs and not very curvy. Your hip measurements will be regarding the same as your bust measurement or a little bit bigger and your waist are slightly less, but not same as an hourglass.
You are lucky to possess a slender body and most garments will fit you perfectly, but sometimes you may feel you want to highlight your feminine curves some more. Garments with frills, ruffles and fluted edges will create size which will provide you those feminine curves you are looking for. An open back can flaunt your sexy back which is the new fashionable cleavage. Chunky statement necklaces that fall around the bust area are great for putting an impression of bigger breast without having to turn to very padded bras. Swirly floral prints can instantly provide a feminine look. Keep jewellery thin and simple because it goes well to your long and slender limbs.
Athletic
How to determine if you’ve an athletic body: Athletic body types are toned and well defined. Shoulders are broad, tummy and arms are toned without much curve and your hips are square.
“The great advantage of an athletic shape body is you can wear pretty much anything,” says Alain Mehada. “Still, numerous of women's who have this shape complain regarding feeling unfeminine and find it difficult to find garments that suit their slightly androgynous shape.”
Let everybody see your body with a pencil skirts and short fitted dress or a line skirts that highlights your waist and opt for skinny jeans in day time. Skinny jeans will look nice on your long slim legs and in summer cute shorts. Look for ruffles on tops as they’ll soften up your body and create a more feminine look.

Hourglass
How to determine if you’re an hourglass: Shoulder and hips ought to be within 5 percent of each other. Take the hips (or shoulder) measurement and subtract 10 (assuming that you are working in inches). This will provide you the approximate waist measurement for this person to be considered an hourglass (within a couple of inches).
Hourglass figures look good stripped or in a bikini, but unfortunately they do not always look good in stylish cuts designed for slender figures.
Accentuating your waist line is everything for you. Stay far from large square garments and opt for fitted dresses instead. You can wear any kind of skirt, but the pencil skirt is the most flattering on you. Team with an easy shirt, tucked in and unbuttoned to disclose a bit cleavage. Stay away from tank tops as they’ll give take shape of your arms. Blouses that hang loosely around your arms are better. You would like to search out a pair of jeans with low pockets; this will give your bottom some oomph. Stay away from chunky necklaces as they’ll make your bust even bigger.

Peer
How to determine if you’re a pear: The hips measurement are going to be the largest, with narrow shoulder and defined waist. If you’re in doubt, take the shoulder measurement and add 5 percent. This will give you the minimum hips measurement to be considered a pear.
People with pear shapes usually mistake their body for being hourglass. The difference is that you hardly have a slim upper body as opposed to an hourglass which normally has a bigger upper body. Your “weak point” is your bottom half that is bigger than the rest of your body.
You will look good in anything fitted on your upper body and a nipped in waist followed by a flared or A-line skirt. Blazers with shoulder pads can look great on you as they’ll balance out your hips, simply make sure you find one that is fitted around the waist and finish above your hips. For jeans you wish to go for dark colors as they will be slimming on your bottom half, pair it with a light colored top to draw attention to your slim upper body. Avoid thing that creates a horizontal line across hips – low slung belt, tops that finish at the widest part and pants with pockets that create this horizontal line. Adding chunky and punchy accessories will draw attention to your upper body as well.
Apple
How to determine if you’re an Apple: Hip and shoulder measurements will be the equal (or very close) and the waist will be very similar or larger than the hip or shoulder measurement. Take the measurement of hip or the shoulder (remember that these will practically be the same) and subtract 25 percent. This may give you the minimum measurement of waist to be considered an apple.
Apple shapes have wonderful legs, so it’s all about showing off your legs whereas wearing something that is lose around your waist.
Boxy and rectangular short dresses paired with high heels will really show off those beautiful legs and hide away your tummy. Underwear which give shape to body will work wonders for you, which develop your waist into a more feminine. Stay away from lose jeans and wear skinny jeans paired with a loose blouse. Jeans with light colour or pants with swirly pattern will highlight your legs and can draw attention away from your waist.
