Because this shape tends to have larger breast always make sure to wear bra that offers good support. The right bra can make a big difference when it comes to enhancing this figure.
Tops with V necks or scooped necklines will lengthen hourglass body. Halter tops are great as they show off the shapely shoulders. To emphasize the waist, wrap around tops are also great. Add an accent to the curve without adding size to your hips and shoulders. will help draw some attention.
The hourglass can wear any color, but darker fabrics will help this type appear slimmer. Select small dots or patterns for a softer slimmer look.
When looking for jackets, keep them simple. They can be either short or long, just make sure that they are well cut, fitted and nipped at the waist to show it off.
Choose jeans that are made of stretch denim, these will hug the curves and give a smooth fit at the waistline and hips. Look for jeans that are cut with larger hips and a smaller waist. Another option is jeans with slightly flared, or have a wide leg, this will balance out the hips. Mid-rise jeans are the way to go, especially for those who are carrying some extra weight in the tummy, but low-rise jeans work great for as well!
When looking for skirts, ¾ length or full length with a long slit or crease in the front will give a taller, thinner and sexier impression.
First on the list of things to stay away from is anything that hides the beautiful curves and turns the body into a shapeless line. Avoid pants and tops that are too baggy, these will only show a frumpy look.
For skirts, jeans, and jackets: stay away from straight lines. Skirts that are to short will only make hourglass type look round and shorten.
Keep away from tops that have large prints, checks, and stripes, and blouses with ruffles and lots of details around the bust area, this will only hide the great curves and make the figure look larger and out of proportion.
Silhouette: A-line
Neckline: Strapless, V-neck, Off-the-shoulder, Sweetheart, Scoop, Queen Anne
A strapless or off-the-shoulder gown is just right. When shopping for a strapless gown, lean towards the one-piece gowns instead of two-piece gowns. A two-piece gown can result in a “choppy” look, splitting you into two figures.
Silhouette: Empire, Mermaid, Sheath
An empire silhouette, with its high waistline, creates an un-proportional look. Also, avoid shapes such as sheath or mermaid shape as their body contouring lines tend to emphasize the wrong areas.
Avoid heavily beaded dresses that can tend to make the bride appear heavier.
Bias-cut and straight designs are not best for hourglass figures. They will usually pull the eye to areas of the body that you want to minimize. These types of dresses are better suited for tall women.
One such suit is called "The Ruched Bikini" and it is great because the wearer has complete control on how much tummy they bare. It can be rolled down for the more daring and pulled up past the belly button for those not as brave. It also has more coverage and support for your fuller bust.

For this shape, it is good to wear something that can draw attention to the upper part of the body. Wide necklines should be a choice, such as a boat, scoop, square or halter which give widen effect to shoulders.
It is recommended to wear an under-wire or molded bras and semi-fitted, tailored tops because pear shape looks great with any shirts that are not too loose or too tight.
Details on top will show off your upper and take all eyes up to it, and belt accessories will help define the waistline and slimmer the look.
Puffy sleeves and tops that hug the shoulders or ones with wide-set straps will help to visually widen the chest and shoulders.
In choosing a jacket or blazer, short is the better. In this case, short meaning those which fall slightly above or at waist level.
For the bottom, mid-rise to lower rise style would be excellent for disguising the size of the hips and bottoms. Wide-legged pants and deep dark colors are suggested for a sleek slimmer look.
Pear shape should wear pants with the same stitched color as the fabric’s color. Simple plain pocket at the back, better in large size, can give smaller effect to the bottom part.
Straight leg jeans that fall from the hips make the leg-line of the pear shape appear longer, and boot-cut jeans can offset that extra width around the hips.
For the skirt, the best material to conceal the area around hips and thighs is flowing fabrics in a straight a-line style.
A slightly flared skirt or even ball gown style is also ideal because it flatters the waistline and shows up the bust as well as hiding the larger hips.
Play with light color at top and dark color at the bottom can help balance the shape.
Pear shape should stay away from body-hugging tight skirts. This will only show every bump and curve.
Bold patterns, large checks, and light colors are not recommended for below the waist. In addition, pleated or gathered fabric at the waist is not suggested as this will accentuate the broader hips.
Do not wear jackets or blazer that finish at the widest part of the hips.
Back Pockets with too many details, embellishment or decoration should be avoided as well as bulky side pockets. This will only draw the eyes right to the problem area where the bottom part look rounder and the thighs look smaller.
Narrow skinny jeans with tapered legs will only enhance the wideness of your hips, thighs, and seat, so as the stretch fabrics or baggy.
The tighter the jeans, the more it will accentuate the curves, and in this case, that is not at desirable effect. Stretch jeans will make the bottom half look heavier.
High-waisted shapeless pants and skirt also make the bottom part look larger.
Silhouette: A-line, Ball Gown
Neckline: Halter, Strapless, V-Neck, Off-the-Shoulder, Scoop
Strapless corset-style combine with an A-line skirt looks great for a pear shape. Another style would be halter and ball gown. Decorations (including jewelry) in the top can add volume to the bust.
Also, consider an Off-the-Should or scoop with an A-line. You'll find that these styles can draw attention to your upper half and bring balance.
This bride should avoid any type of body-hugging gown, full skirts, or cuts that make the upper body appear even smaller or the lower body larger.
Sleek shoes with a thinner heel will work better visually rather than clunky footwear.
Bad to wear:
Silhouette: Sheath, Mermaid, Empire
Neckline: V-Neck
Avoid styles that contour to the shape of pear bodies such as Sheath and Mermaid. V-neck tends to draw attention towards the chest and hips.
A long lined tankini in a lighter, brighter shade or bold print can be an alternative. This can be worn as a swim top, or as a halter top that can be worn anywhere.
Add some padding or a demi-bra style (with underwire) to make the bust appears larger.
Another great item is the suit with a bubble skirt or shorts.
The bubble skirt has a low waist that helps show off the waist as the best features while camouflaging the hips and thighs.

The rectangle shape is almost like a ruler shape. People with this body type need to wear something that can create a curvy appearance to enhance their femininity and draw focus to their great legs and thighs.
Choose a top that has a strong or wide shoulder; a peasant blouse or Empire dress that creates a shape on top. Wearing surplice or wrap tops with a scooped or V- neckline will also emphasize the bust and draw attention to the face. Find bras with extra padding and underwire to make the breast appear larger.
Add a belt to pull the eye inward and define the waist. A drop waist top with detailing or belting at the hip will also add volume below the waist. Look for jackets that have a cinched waist, or bias cut as these will look great on a rectangle. Jackets that flare out from the waist will create instant hips. Tops that are fitted and go in at the waist will help give the appearance of a curvier figure.
Pleated skirts or low rise pants and skinny jeans accentuate the hips. Choose skirts that have a dropped waist or pencil, a-lined, and flared skirts that gather at the waist. Wear the same color on top and bottom with a contrasting color in the middle.
Look for jeans that hug and lift the bottom part of the body. Smaller back pockets that are spread far apart will help the small bottom look fuller. If they have flaps on them, this is even better, as this adds some bulk to it.
Jeans with lighter fades on the thighs will help give them shape. Another choice is low-rise and that is a straight fit from the hip to the knee with a slight flare at the end. A contoured waistband helps create curves too.
For sure, stay away from vertical patterns and lines, these will tend to create a thin and lanky appearance. Clinging and tightly fitted blouses are not good choices either.
Short cropped jackets that end at the waistline and loose garments should be avoided as those do not help create the curves.
Stay away from skirts, jeans, and pants that are high waisted and straight cut jeans because they will only emphasize your straight figure.
Silhouette: Full skirt, Ball gown, A-line or Princess, Empire waist
Neckline: Jewel, portrait, Sabrina, bateau
Go with a beaded neckline or bodice. The empire style dress (a raised waistline, sometimes right below the bust) can also give the appearance of a fuller chest and add some extra definition and shape. Another option to create the illusion of curves is to draw attention to the waist part.
To do this try a ball gown (full skirt, form-fitting bodice) as this will draw attention to the waistline and give a curvier look. A ruched or embellished waistline is also a nice choice. Ornaments, belts, wraps, darts, and ribbons are just a few examples of waistline embellishment.
Fuller sleeves are yet another way to add curves, and a dress with detailing and patterns can help to break up the straight body line.
Silhouette: Sheath
Neckline: v-neckline, Queen Anne
The square figured bride should avoid sheath or clingy dresses that contribute nothing to creating the illusion of curves.
Look for swimsuits that have a form-fitting waist and a soft cup bra. Two pieces do just that and make rectangle appear a little curvier. Wear a top with some padding to increase the bust size. Choose solid bold colors and plunging neckline to make the bust and butt stand out.
Diagonal lines can do much the same. Stay away from stripes. A one-piece swimsuit with bold bright color in overall and darker color only in the waistline part is a good choice. This will make the waist appear smaller.
Another great look is the tank style suits or tankini. These will accent the midline that draws attention to the smallest part of the body. Avoid those string bikinis. Belted bottoms will look great on this body type as will bandeau tops.

To balance the appearance of apple type is by giving slimmer look to shoulder and waist. Attention should be drawn to the best part which usually the bust and legs. Simple design and style are always the best for this type.
Apple body type is great in wrap around tops that are not too tight. V-neckline can be chosen to pull away attention from the shoulder part.
Don’t forget to use a support bra to enhance the figure. Bring up the waistline by wearing an empire waist.
Empire waist can disguise width around the midsection.
Tank top is great to wear with a jacket or camisole. Choose those which fall through mid-thigh.
Darker solid color or monochromatic color helps to give a slimmer appearance to the tops and produce length to the look.
Straight trousers and skirts with lighter color could flatter slimmer legs and catch eyes to the lower part. The pattern for tops is better vertical.
For jeans, flat front and lower rise is the choice. Light color jeans or fading color jeans could shape the thighs. For longer look impression, wear boot-cut and flared legs.
Shoulder pads will only make the shoulders look bigger, so as puffy sleeves to upper arms. Bare shoulder, however, is also not a very good idea.
The too baggy top is not a great option. Bold pattern, horizontal line, large check, and light color, they all will add width to the torso and thus should be avoided. Decoration in up front will not work so well with a big tummy.
Do not wear bottoms that are too tight because the top will appear bigger when your bottom looks slimmer. Dark jeans and tapered leg make hips look small and distract the balance between your top and bottom.
Silhouette: Full Skirt, Ballgown, Ballerina skirt
Neckline: V-neckline, Queen Anne, jewel, scoop
With V-neckline, the top body can appear less-round and flatter the full bust. To balance with the top, the fuller skirt will surely do a nice job. An empire waist is recommended to draw attention away from a heavy top.
Silhouette: mermaid
Neckline: halter, off-the-shoulder, boat
Apple bodies should avoid any necklines that accentuate the broad shoulders such as halter, heavily decorated, off-the-shoulder, and boat necklines.
Swimwear
Unlike the wedding gown, the halter neck is suggested for the swimwear as it can give enough support to the full breast. Wear underwire cups and thick straps to help to move conveniently with larger bust supported.
Strapless bandeau top will not give enough coverage to full bust and better avoided.
The low cut top is not recommended because it will show off the waist which usually is not so flat.
Color choice is the same as for top is solid dark and bottom lighter with print,
Skirtini can balance the hips and top and can be an adjustment on the level of lower high option.

No tips better than being comfortable with what you wear and you will naturally gain confidence with your appearance.
You might have heard the suggestion of wearing something black. Nobody would deny that black can give a slimmer appearance. But be careful with the fabric.
Thick fabric sometimes shows the contrary. And ‘too tight’ may expose all areas which are supposed to be hidden.
The fact is a lot of people feel sexy when they are wearing black. Nevertheless, some people also think that black is so boring and gloomy. Thus, my suggestion is not to wear black every day as if you are a desperate person who is just having a funeral.
What most people not aware of is plus size can also look chic and stylish in color.
Choose a flattering color for your skin. Large bold print or bold patterns are great, so as vertical lines. If you are not confident enough with colors, combine them with black.
Usually, the simple design is good to avoid the bulky and frumpy look. If you like details though, do not choose ruffles, frills, thick pockets or whatever accessories that can make you look bigger.
