With that being said, if you’re a clothing brand owner, especially a female one at that, you’ll definitely understand these qualms that women go through when buying clothing apparel.

But remember, you can wear whatever you like, and that does not need to be limited to certain types. Here, you’ll find out how to play with colours and lengths to bring out the best in women’s fashion.

How to Dress For Pear Body Type?
Sweetheart necklines, and V necklines are your best friend, if you have a pear shaped body type. Crop tops paired with skinny jeans are also a great option to compliment your curves as well as highlight the various parts of your body from top to bottom. A-line dresses are also a very good option for you to compliment your body type.
How to Dress For Hourglass Body Type?
Body hugging dresses, be it one piece or a tightly fit crop tops and skinny jeans accentuate your body type very well. You can experiment with a sweetheart neckline to flaunt your torso or try out A-line dresses too, to see which makes you look the best in your eyes.
