What’s the new trend? How about a peplum top? Ever wondered why it looked great on some women and probably not so good on others? Well this post will not only help you understand this problem, but give you all the solutions you need!
So here’s the issue with going for the new trends. Don’t go for it unless you KNOW you can rock it! The peplum top? Sure the design is modern and hip, but you’d be surprised to know it doesn’t complement every woman’s body shape. “So how do I know what trends to go after or not?” you ask. Firstly, you need to be able to identify your body type. There are four basic body types women have. I’ve listed them below with brief descriptions.
Apple: You typically have broader shoulders and slender legs. This body type resembles that of an inverted triangle. You commonly have a bigger upper body and a smaller lower body. Because you have nicer, sculpted legs, your first instinct would be to go ahead and show them off. This is where this body type can go wrong with dressing. We’ll fix this in a moment.
Pear: Your top half is smaller than the lower half of your body. Typically a smaller bust with wider hips. Most of your weight shifts to the bottom. You have a nice feminine appeal due to your shapely legs. Wearing fitted bottoms would do your shape justice, but doing the same with tops could throw off your body’s balance. You’ll be dressed in a minute.
Hourglass: Big bust, slim waist, and curvy hips makes you the creme de la creme of feminine body types. You are well proportioned and a fun fact, you have a higher chance of obtaining a healthy lifestyle. You can pull off nearly any trend. Only problem is, you tend to show off too much, giving away all your curves. Your solution is on the way.
Box: You have a slender and athletic build. To be completely honest, you’re the easiest to dress! You naturally have a sporty look so you may tend to go for fitted tops and bottoms. Common pitfall. You need to add softness to your shape. You may be missing some curves you’re craving. Don’t worry, we’ll work it out.
In my opinion any woman or man can rock any type of trend, but they have to have the dedication, the motivation, and the confidence to be able to do it.
