Little Black Dresses for Every Body Type

Little Black Dresses for Every Body Type

Bottom-Heavy Figure

 

Fuller skirts, like this dress, disguise heavy hips, while showing off the waist. A fitted strapless silhouette -- which accents a trim upper body -- is very flattering for bottom-heavy figures.

 

 

Unattractive Legs

 

Don't want to show off your legs? You can still look gorgeous in a little black dress, instead of hiding your legs in pants. Try wearing a longer skirt (midcalf or longer) like this dress 

 

 

Wide Shoulders

 

You don't need to hide your upper body in a little black dress if you have wide shoulders. Instead, look for body-balancing details like the trendy asymmetrical neckline, like this one-shoulder style Avoid puffy sleeves or voluminous tops paired with slim bottoms that will exaggerate your shoulder width.

 

Full Bust

 

Balance a top-heavy figure in a little black dress by opting for the most flattering necklines for the full bust: the V-neck, square neck, wrap or portrait style like this dress.
