Tips for "Apple" body type

Should you have an “Apple” body type, your top half of your body is wider than the bottom half or you may have a tendency to get extra weight at the top half of your body.  More specifically, you have an Apple body shape if you have a larger bust, broader shoulders, non defined waist, narrow hips and slim legs.

Do:

  • Emphasize your slim legs
  • Wear ¾ sleeve tops so as to show your nice arms
  • Choose flat fronted trousers having straight line legs
  • Wear side fastening skirts in a quite short length so as to show your gorgeous legs
  • Dress in V-neck tops so as to minimize your bust and to create a vision of slimmer top and stomach  
  • Wear jackets or coats with a V-neck line and having a belt so as to create a waist
  • Dark colors help minimizing your figure, however choose always among the dark colors of your color palette
  • Use belts to create the illusion of a waist

Don’t:

  • Avoid tops with prints, horizontal lines or squares
  • Avoid huge coats in a straight line, a tighter coat having a kind of belt so as to create a waist
  • Avoid short tops, make sure that they cover your stomach area
  • Over sized tops is not a good idea since they over emphasize your wide top half
  • Avoid long skirts since you should show off your great looking legs
  • Do not wear bulk trousers or skirts around your stomach areas since they add extra size
  • Avoid low-wasted trousers or looser fit on the hips, wear high-waisted trousers so as to create a waist
