Clothes that suit ‘The Hourglass’ body shape:
1. Coat: the deep V plunging to your waist cuts your chest in half.
2. Jacket: two buttons sewn closely together give support and elongate your waist. Go for a curved lapel to echo your curves. Three quarter sleeves show off your elegant wrists and suggest a more delicate frame.
3.Top: You might feel like buckling under peer pressure to dress overly casually, but your shape looks better in smarter clothes. Don’t be afraid to stand out.
4.Necklaces: you don’t need to over-adorn your chest, it’s eye-catching enough already. A simple chain with a dangly bit that hangs below your boobs will suffice.
5.Dress: Always look for a dress that lifts your chest and elongates your waist. A small draped sleeve gives just enough coverage to your bicep. Keep a print as minimal as your hourglass shape can bear without being swapped.
