How many times have you wondered what body shape you have? The answer doesn’t really matter to us. Whether your body is pear, hourglass or apple shaped, there is a much more important question: what is your style? Let’s take a step back.

What are the most common body shapes?

The shape of our bodies, by convention and similarity, can be compared with certain fruits or objects such as a pear in the case of a narrow waist and more pronounced hips, an apple when the body resembles an inverted triangle, or an hourglass, which is probably the most harmonious shape. There are several others. The diamond body shape has an emphasis on the shoulders, while the rectangle has a more androgynous shape and not very pronounced curves. Weight is not relevant to the body shape, as similarities can be found and traced between slimmer and curvier bodies.

From body to model

The concept of analysing one’s own body shape was certainly born with very good intentions to enhance every shape by focusing on the strengths of every woman. But what if, instead of dwelling on women’s bodies, we started to understand the patterns and fits of the clothes we choose to buy? Discover the most versatile models and create your own style guide.

I’m not afraid of you, changing room!

Seasonal changes are the times when you are most likely to look puzzled at your wardrobe and head straight to the store for some shopping, but this means choosing clothes and having to try them on. 

It has happened to all of us where we head to the changing room with dozens of garments and none turn out to be right. Some people get very anxious when trying on clothes and this is exactly what should never happen. In our shops, the store managers are trained to help women feel beautiful while remaining themselves, but what about when you shop from home? It’s simple: you have to get to know the models, love your body and choose the style that suits your personality.

Wild card dresses and layering

So here are our style tips for all women who want to learn how to express themselves best without worrying about having to adapt their body to a dress.

The black dress in its ribbed stretch version fits every body perfectly and is considered the ultimate buildable dress. The light and comfy fabric always allows ample layering options, from cardigan to leather jacket, from oversized jumper to coat.

Don’t forget that it’s the details that make the difference. Try straight dresses with a crossover fastening and wide sleeves and opt for customising them with accessories that match the details of the dress.

When you are uncertain about the model, focus on the pattern. There is no better pattern than tartan in winter. Try it with a plain turtleneck and a tartan waistcoat and, if in doubt, add a pair of combat boots for an even more rock style.

Waistcoat: the must-have of the season

If you are looking for a wild card item that can transform an outfit in a single move, one that suits everyone and is perfect for every occasion, it’s time to try a waistcoat. 

Perfect when paired with palazzo trousers for an elegant and sophisticated look, but also with miniskirts to evoke the college girl and dark academy style. The waistcoat is a hyper-feminine garment with a soft design that can elevate even the most minimal outfit.

Our jumpsuit will become your best friend

Do you follow the office dress code, but don’t like dresses and suits? Our jumpsuit is just what you need. Elegant, comfortable, practical and feminine, it’s perfect for a formal yet never dull outfit.

The halter neck with the fabric inserted in a ring to create a tie effect make this garment perfect for the office when paired with a blazer or cardigan. Meanwhile, with the right mix of accessories, the look becomes instantly glamorous and perfect for a night out with friends.
