Dress to Flatter Your Figure
Your Type: Athletic/boy shape (straight up and down)
The Strategy: Use clothing to create curves where they don’t exist naturally
Look for:
• Details at the bust such as ruffles, wraps and rouching―these add fullness up top
• Sleeveless tops and halters; they show off toned arms
• High-waisted skirts; they should begin at the smallest part of your waist, just underneath the bust
• Bootcut pants and jeans, with a lower rise for maximum curviness
Avoid: Menswear-inspired styles, straight cuts, “boyfriend” jeans
Your Secret Weapon: A ruffled blouse tucked into a high-waisted skirt
