Hello there! Hire is the deal,...what is my body shape, so i know what to wear. We all talk about some apples, pear shapes and really we don't even know what that means. Every body with it's own special form and vibe, so the correct answer to: 'What i must wear?', is: 'How you feel it from inside' And comparing me to a fruit? O, come on! Anyway....hire are some ideas and shapes. Check out and find yours! Then let's go on a mission: find the best dress!! Valentine's coming! By the way I think that we have to cancel this celebration day, it's been enough already:))

Identify your body type.

 One way to define a woman's body type is by how her curves connect her bust, waist, and hips.

*Apple-  bust three or more inches bigger than hips; if you have this body type, draw attention away from your waist and shoulders, and draw attention to your bust and neck 

^ Empire waists draw the eye up, taking attention away from the middle and allowing a looser fit. Neck details also bring the focus up, while full skirts and A-line shifts create an hourglass illusion.

If you have an apple-shaped body, then you want to elongate your midsection and create the illusion of a smaller waist.

• DO go for monochromatic looks.
• DO go for v-neck tops to create the illusion of a longer torso.
• DO wear a bra that offers good lift and support.
• DO wear belts at the smallest part of your waist.
• DO conceal tummy bulge by wearing empire tops and dresses.
• DO wear boot cut and flared jeans to create an even line from the shoulders down.
• DO wear shorter skirts to show off your legs and draw attention away from your midsection. 

 *Straight ; waist is about the same as hips and waist, more like a cylinder; if you have this body type, you can "pinch" your waist and exaggerate curves to avoid looking boyish. Go for ruffles and frills to add texture and volume (and femininity) to your figure. Steer clear of baggy jeans and track clothes if you don't want to look boyish.

 ^Classic shifts work well with your shape, while an Empire waist or simple A-line skirt help to create some curves. One-shoulder styles ensure a dramatic silhouette.

If your body is rectangle-shaped, then you want to create curves where they don't necessarily exist.

• DO wear scoop neck and sweetheart tops to create curves.
• DO wear long jackets to create a lean look.
• DO wear tops with collars, ruffles and details to flatter your chest.
• DO wear a good bra that will make the most of what you have.
• DON'T wear overwhelming styles.
• DO layer to add more dimensions.
• DO wear dresses with ruching. Cinches on sides are ideal.
• DO have fun with colourful bottoms... feel free to experiment.

 *Pear -hips significantly larger than bust; if this is your body type, there are things you can do to make your hips and butt look slimmer, but some women might want to make their butts bigger!

  ^Dresses with fitted open-neck or strapless tops enhance your upper body and draw the eye up, while full or A-line skirts help hide wider hips. An Empire waist marks the smallest point of your figure, distracting from everything else.

If your body is pear-shaped  then you want to minimise your lower half and focus attention upward.

• DON'T wear clothing that draws attention to hips and thighs, such as cargo pants or print skirts.
• DO try a-line skirts, which camouflage wider hips.
• DO keep hems of pants, skirts and dresses wide to balance the hips.
• DO experiment with light-coloured tops and dark-coloured bottoms for contrast.
• DO look for boat neck tops, square and cowl necklines.
• DO wear strapless dresses to show off arms and even out proportions.
• DO try styles with ruffles on top.
• DO wear jackets that hit right above the waist.
• DO opt for pointy-toed shoes to elongate your legs.

*Hourglass - equal hip and bust measurements with a narrow waist; if you're one of the lucky few with this body type, dress to flatter - not flatten - your beautiful curves.

  ^Wraps, knit dresses and classic sheaths with fitted waists enhance your classically feminine form. Look for adjustable-waist styles for the best fit.

If your body is hourglass-shaped, then you're a lucky girl! Your shape is all about tastefully showing off those curves: not too baggy, not too tight.

• DON'T hide your curves with baggy clothing.
• DO wear a good bra and showcase your bust.
• DO wear fitted dresses.
• DO wear a belt at the waist to enhance your hourglass shape.
• DO try wrap dresses.
• DO go for high-waisted skirts to show off your hips.
• DO pick thin, lightweight styles and fabrics.
• DO wear skinny or straight leg jeans.

If you have a wedge body, then you want to draw attention downward to the narrower parts of your body, such as your waist and hips.

• DO wear bright colours on bottom.
• DO wear wide-leg pants.
• DO wear full skirts.
• DON'T wear spaghetti-strap tops.
• DON'T wear boat neckline tops.
• DO wear tops that call attention to your waistline.
• DO experiment with high-waist styles.
• DO look for clothes that create the illusion of a waist.

Pastel Tones

Sand, a lightly toasted and amiable neutral, conjures images of the beach and the carefree days of summer. Try pairing Sand with Hemlock for perfect, natural balance.

Cayenne,, a high-pitched red, adds a dash of spicy heat to neutrals, and heightens the excitement when mixed with Freesia, a blazing yellow that is sure to illuminate wardrobes this season. Freesia's warmth and energy help set the stage for Celosia Orange

 Radiant Orchid, a bold counterpart to Violet Tulip, and Dazzling Blue,a scintillating, polar opposite to Placid Blue. Surprisingly, these strong, vibrant colours also pair well across the palette: They are perfect companions to pastels, and add confidence and vivacity when mixed with other bold colours.

Minimalism

                                                        The fashion in 1990s
 
Fashion became more laidback and and comfortable. 1990s style was more minimalist aesthetic with a lot of black and neutral colours. Neutral colours like grey, brown, olive green and beige replaced the royal blue, bright fuchsia and emerald green of the previous decade. Countering the wide shoulders and frills of the 1980s, clothes in the 1990s were neat, slim fitting and casual and fabrics were softer and more relaxed.

The rise of alternative 'grunge' fashion in the early 1990s was one of the most significant trends of the decade. Grunge was an eclectic trend that combined two very different forms of rebellion from previous decades - the 1970s 'hippie' and 1980s 'punk' movements. Grunge-style clothing was often over sized, baggy and torn and featured dark, subdued colours. Hair was kept deliberately messy and UN-styled.

Fashion was truly globalised in the 1990s, as new technology like the Internet enabled fashion trends to rapidly disseminate between cultures. Dressing for comfort was also a key trend
