You are hitting some of the prestigious boutiques in Chicago looking for your next look, but you want to step it up. Perhaps you’ve never purchased clothes with intent, but that changes now. The following are a few tips to ensure that you choose clothes that fit you like a glove and highlights your look rather than overshadow it.
Apple-Shaped Body
Choosing the right clothes is all about knowing your body and being honest about it. The reason some people have a hard time looking good in something is because they bought garments that were not made for their body type. A person with an apple-shaped body will need to wear clothes that draw attention away from that mid-section of yours. Look for V-neck empire waist dresses or A-line dresses. Be sure to stay away from bulky clothes. You should also stay away from skinny pants if you are top heavy.
Pear-Shaped Body
What you want to do is find balance, and to do that you should use clothes to highlight your shoulders. There are a number of ways you can do this. For example, you can purchase beautiful Giorgio Armani or Prada scarves or pashminas. Make sure that you look for puff sleeves to help make your shoulders and arms a little bigger. It may even be a good idea to look for patterned or embellished tops to help draw attention to your top. Stay away from tight clothes near the bottom of your body, and opt for flared pants or A-line skirts.
Rectangular-Shaped Body
This type of body needs to create the illusion of the hour-glass shape, which is an idea. You can do this a number of ways; you can purchase a Versace blouse that ends near the mid-section of the hips, and use a belt to create a waist. Make sure that you do your best to find tops with a little volume, which means ruffled or pleated tops.
