Types of Shapes

When choosing clothes, it is important to consider not only and not so much the complexion as such, but also the type of figure. Consider the most common classification of female silhouettes.

Pear

These ladies have wide hips and full legs, while the shoulders are quite narrow and the chest is relatively small. In this case, a skirt adjacent to the waist, but with the extension downward, is appropriate. This will hide the massive hips.

Women pears will suit a straight-cut skirt.

Important! Short and narrow patterns are taboo. They will reveal what really needs to be hidden.

V shape

Such a silhouette is also called an inverted triangle. Women with this type of figure are characterized by lush breasts and broad shoulders, combined with relatively narrow hips. The waist is far from always pronounced, but legs cannot be called complete. A flared skirt will help to balance the top and bottom.

Important! The “pencil” style models are categorically not suitable. The figure in this case will seem blatantly disproportionate.

An Apple

Girls with this type of figure have beautiful legs and chest, but there is no waist and the tummy is visible enough. A pencil skirt worn with a tunic helps to adjust the figure. The skirt distracts attention to beautiful legs, and the spacious tunic hides a not entirely successful waist line. Suitable for "apples" and models with the extension down.

Rectangle

For this type of physique, almost the same values ​​of the volumes of the chest, waist and hips are characteristic. Adjusting the shape helps visually create a waistline with a belt.

Important! From tight-fitting styles and models on an elastic band will have to be abandoned.

Hourglass

A full woman with this type of physique looks like an appetizing, sexy little girl. You have every chance that men will like you: a pronounced (albeit far from aspen!) Waist, lush chest, and wide hips. A basque model decorated with flounces will suit you, the width of the belt is average. But still, too narrow skirts should be avoided.

Now we will consider useful tips for choosing a particular type of skirt. Sometimes you have to act on the principle invented by the French: “If you can’t, but really want to, then you can.”

Pencil skirt

Most of the puffy ladies pay attention to this style and quite rightly consider it to be slim. Exceptions to this rule are rectangular and “inverted triangular” silhouettes. For all the other ladies, this is a happy option, hiding a convex belly and focusing on a beautiful line of legs.

Important! It is advisable to wear corrective underwear under the “pencil”.We should not forget about heels: they visually stretch the figure, making it slimmer.

Here are some other recommendations regarding this style:

• Women with a “pear” shape need to pay attention to the fact that the product does not taper down too much, but has a more direct shape. This skirt is in perfect harmony with the top of draped fabric.
• Ladies with an "apple" body type are contraindicated in skirts with belts. But a slightly elongated blouse or tunic is just what you need.
• “Pencil” will adorn the hourglass figure. Waist can be emphasized with a strap or belt.

Important! This model is equally appropriate in the office, at a holiday event or business meeting. It’s a good idea to sew such a skirt for the full ones with dark accents on the sides. The figure visually seems slimmer.

• Alas, girls with a “pear” figure will have to abandon this style. The whole emphasis is on the hips, and this is not the best option.

A-line

To many full ladies, the A-silhouette is very suitable. It helps to hide hips that are too wide, while emphasizing a neat waist and beautiful legs. The skirt with an A-silhouette fits to the hips and waist, expanding to the knees. The length can be different - from “to the knee” to “to the floor”.

Important! Such products look especially chic if the waist line is slightly too high.

To understand which one to sew a skirt for full, consider the following:

• Women “pear” this type of skirts fits perfectly. Slim fit, lush hips hidden - just what you need!
• Such a style is also suitable for girls with a figure in the form of an inverted triangle, since it is possible to eliminate the mismatch between the upper and lower parts of the body. The more flares in this case, the better. The length can be any.
• For women, the “apple” A-style fits perfectly, because it models the waist and slightly adds volume in the hips. The length is best chosen to the knee. You can - a little lower.
• The hourglass is again on top. The skirt will only emphasize the beauty of your figure.

Important! A-style is good for its versatility. For a strict office dress code, you can choose a not very flared model. A bolder flare made of light flowing fabric is an option for a holiday or a festive event.

Tulip

A model with a high waist, extension to the hips and narrowed to the knees or slightly lower is suitable for many girls “with shapes”:

• “Pears” need to make sure that the folds in the line of the belt is the minimum. Of course, it will not work to reduce the hips, but to mask their real dimensions is quite realistic.
• But the “inverted triangles” need to act exactly the opposite. The more folds, the better. Narrow hips will appear softer and more feminine.
• Such a style is hardly suitable for the “apple” figure, since it will add volume in those areas that should not be emphasized.
• “Tulip” is a real salvation for a figure of a rectangular type. However, folds on the hips should not get carried away.

Important! If you are thinking about how to sew a straight skirt for a full woman of this particular style, it is advisable to choose a dark plain fabric.They wear skirts with t-shirts tucked in their belts.

Long models

Full ladies are very long models. It is only important to choose the right style. Here are some tips from stylists:

• If the waistline is not clear, pay attention to the skirt on the floor with a fit on the hips.
• Long skirts with horizontal prints - not for the full! The figure will appear even larger and bulky.
• Have you chosen an elastic skirt? Perfectly. But do not tuck inside shirts or blouses. You will look like a cloud.
• A tight-fitting shirt looks good with an elongated skirt with a hard belt.
• In no case do not wear blouses that expose the waist and stomach. This, in principle, is not your option.
• A long skirt made of thick fabric is not for a large woman. Such a style will make the figure more bulky and large.
• A long and slightly flared model will suit all full ladies. Skirts with a slightly high waist look especially advantageous.
• If you have chosen a “floor” style, it is advisable to use a plain fabric. If you certainly want to make the bottom colorful, combine it with a solid top.
• Pay attention to products with an asymmetric bottom. On a full lady, models look slightly elongated at the rear and shortened in front.

How to choose the right fabric?

• It is best to choose plain materials. Locking on black is completely optional. The whole tint palette is for you, dear ladies! The main thing is that the cut matches your body type.

Important! An exception to the rule is women with the apple shape. Shades that are too light are not for them.

• As for fabrics with prints, horizontal prints are not for a full figure. It is better to cut the material into the cage along the oblique. Otherwise, the strict geometry of the cell will make your image even more heavy.

Important! You should not get carried away with shiny fabrics, as they increase weight.

• As for the texture, the best option is fabric with medium density. For the cool season, let it be fabrics made of wool, half-wool or knitwear. They are not just warm and cozy, but beautiful and stylish.
• Denim looks great on large women. “Pencil”, A-silhouette or a straight model - just for this case.
• If you knit, you can knit a skirt yourself. But remember: large patterns and thick threads will not suit you.
