  Women with rounded profiles
whose waist measurements are proportionally larger than their
more balanced bust and hip measurements. They're often
short-waisted and long-legged.
 
Not a big difference between bust, waist & hip measurements.
Often great legs.
   
 
Fabrics

Constructed fabrics with asymmetrical, abstract designs offer sophistication.

Vertical stripes keep the eye moving up and down.

Sticking with one color or overall tone from head to toe creates a classy look.

Necklines

Attractive necklines, scarves, design details and interesting textiles add elegance.

Soft, rounded or mandarin collars draw the attention upward with their simple elegance. A simple vertical line of a collar without lapel will flatter your shape.

Pants

A wide, fluid pant is the look for your shape. An elastic yoke waist and back darts lend them a bit of structure.

Stay with flat-front pants with some darting in the back for shape.

Capri pants with a side zip and charming button detail at the hemline emphasize those legs of yours.

A lower rise at the high hip with a straight-cut jean offers a contemporary look.

Jackets & Tops

Styles that emphasize the
shoulder line and drop in a simple, unstructured straight line from the shoulder.

Sweater and chenille coats soften
your lines.

Boat necks and interesting details
draw the eye upward.

A jacket with a bit of a flare and a simple closure floats stylishly around you.

A straight, unstructured blouse with
a V neckline is very flattering.

A wide-neck top with asymmetrical
detailing looks wonderful paired with a slim skirt.

A longer jacket and stand-up collar
all in a fun print add style and
energy to your look.

Skirts & Dresses

Skirts, either bias or flared (with a longer jacket), or straight, work the best.

Skirts and dresses that skim your knees, with interesting detail at the hem show off those fabulous legs.

Bias-cut skirts with no waistband and a bit of a flip at the hem skim the body and flatter your curves.

 
Trims & Details

Scarves and brooches play up the shoulder and neck area.

Pockets that lay flat and are of the same fabric are the way to go.

Get flirty in babydoll and empire-waist dresses that swing away from the hips.
