Hourglass figure dresses

A figure that looks like an hourglass is called the most feminine and very harmonious. It is believed that girls with such a physique can wear any clothes, but there are styles that can spoil such an ideal silhouette.

To better highlight the advantages and advantages of a figure similar to an hourglass, it is advised to wear such dresses:

1. Sheath dress. It can be both flared from the hips, and narrowed below. In such a dress, the hourglass figure will look most profitable. The attire is most often chosen for a festive evening, but also a similar dress is suitable for a business meeting.
2. Dress with a smell. It looks especially beautiful on a slender beauty with an hourglass figure. To emphasize the advantages of the figure, you can use asymmetric drapery and candid neckline.
3. A-line dress with fitted bodice. In this outfit, a girl with an X-like figure will be able to hide a small fullness.
4. Dress shirt. Such a dress can be both straight and slightly flared, it is only important to clearly indicate the waist, which is most often achieved using a belt.
5. Dresses with draperies and ruffles. Such decorative elements can be on the chest (such outfits have a very feminine and sophisticated look) or on the waist line (they will not ruin the image if the waist is very thin).
6. Dresses with flared skirt. They must certainly have a tight-fitting top and a distinguished waist, and fabrics for such outfits are selected flowing. The length of the skirt is found both in the floor and midi.
7. Dresses with a pencil skirt. Such models sit on a figure with an X-silhouette just perfect.

• If the girl’s breasts are quite voluminous, she is recommended models of dresses that have a tight corset. In such outfits, the waist will be maximally emphasized, and the bust will take on the perfect shape.
• Girls with a small breast volume are advised to choose dresses with narrow straps or no straps at all. Also, beauties with a small bust can wear outfits with an American armhole.
• Choosing a model with sleeves, women with an X-shaped type of figure should pay attention to the style of the raglan sleeve. Avoid models with shoulder pads and flashlights.
• On a girl with a figure resembling an hourglass, monophonic outfits look best. The color of the dress can worsen the perception of the silhouette, so girls with this type of physique should refuse from floral and various geometric patterns.
• Choosing the fabric of the product, it is better to prefer feminine and soft textures. The best choice would be dresses made of linen, viscose, light crepe, knitwear, silk, soft and elastic cotton, as well as knitted fabrics. Dense materials with this type of figure are considered an unsuccessful option.
