Discover in this article, the advice of our fashion experts to find THE perfect dress for your figure.
Which evening dress for an A-shaped body?
The A-shaped body shape (or triangle body shape) is one of the most common body shapes. The shoulders are narrower than the hips, thus creating a sort of pyramid shape.
The ideal dress: To rebalance the silhouette, opt for an empire dress or a strapless dress - which reveal the shoulders, or for a dress with balloon or ruffled sleeves - which widens the shoulders.
V-shaped body shape: which evening dress to choose?
If you have broad shoulders, narrow hips and long, thin legs, you are one of the women who have a V-shaped body . An athletic silhouette that makes people envious...
The ideal dress: To harmonize your silhouette, choose an evening dress that adds volume to the hips: frills, gathers and pleats are welcome. Trapeze or empire dresses will also suit you perfectly. Finally, don't forget: your legs are your assets! Highlight them with a short dress or a slit dress .
Which evening dress for an X-shaped body?
The X-shaped body shape (or hourglass body shape) is considered the most harmonious body shape. The shoulders and hips are aligned and the waist is slim and well defined.
The ideal dress: With such a silhouette, you are spoiled for choice. Long evening dress short, fitted, flared... everything suits you! Think about highlighting your slim figure by wearing a belt or a dress fitted at the waist.
Morphology in 8: which evening dress should you choose?
Very close to the X morphology, the 8 morphology is distinguished by a well-defined waist, alignment of the shoulders and hips and generous curves.
What evening dress to wear? As with X-shaped body types, you can wear anything you want. Treat yourself!
Which evening dress for an H-shaped body?
The H-shaped morphology is characterized by an alignment of the hips and shoulders and a slightly marked waist, forming a sort of rectangle. If the silhouette is rather harmonious, the curves are, for their part, not very generous.
The ideal dress: To highlight the feminine and glamorous side, we opt for a flared strapless evening dress a low-cut evening dress or even an empire dress .
Finding an evening dress when you have an O-shaped body
If you are curvy and full of curves, you have an O-shaped body . Your curves are well defined, unlike your waist which is not (or barely) visible. Which does not prevent you from having a harmonious and very feminine silhouette.
The ideal dress: Here again, the empire dress is to be preferred. But you can also wear a straight dress or a wrap dress . Opt for dark colors, which tend to slim the silhouette . As for fabric, opt for fluid and airy materials.
