Suggested Skirts: Sheath, A-Line, Ball Gown, Dropped Waistline, Mermaid, or Fit & Flare.

Suggested Skirts: A-line, Mermaid, Fit & Flare, Ball Gown, or Sheath.

4. Style Guide For The Pear Shaped Figure
The lower half of your figure appears fuller, so it's important to create more balance. Add some style upstairs; choose wide necklines, puffy sleeves and tops that hug the shoulders. Tops with wide-set straps will also help to visually widen your shoulders and chest area.
Suggested Necklines: V-neck, Big Shoulder, or Halter.
Suggested Skirts: A-line, Ball Gown, or Empire.

Suggested Skirt: A-line, Sheath, Mermaid, or Ball Gown.

Suggested Skirts: A-line, or Ball Gown.

7. Style Guide For The Large Busted Figure
If you're a busty woman, finding a bust shape that works well with your dress is important. While much of this is down to wearing the right bra, certain necklines will accentuate your feminine qualities better than others.

Suggested Skirts: Ball Gown or A-line.
