A-line dress or tunic? Find the perfect dress for your figure!
There are countless dress shapes and cuts, but which dress suits which figure type? What should you consider if you have wider hips? And how can you conceal a small tummy? You can easily find out in our blog post and thus find your perfect Zwillingsherz dress. Whether it's a midi, maxi or mini dress, you have the choice with us!
Which dress suits which figure type?
Every woman is different, just like her body. Whether strong thighs, wide hips or a narrow waist, there's no reason to assume that the perfect dress doesn't exist. To perfectly showcase your curves, you should first find out what figure type you are.
The Apple Figure
An apple-shaped body is usually characterized by a strong upper body and curvy hips. The hips are slightly wider than the shoulders and waist. The legs are also rather slender. People with an apple-shaped figure often want to emphasize their slender legs or defined hips. With a more loosely cut tunic dress, like our "Lily" dress or "Luna" dress, you'll be a real eye-catcher!
The dresses' airy cut flatters your curvy body, can be easily adjusted at the décolleté with the waistband, and still create a wow effect with their unique pattern!
The Pear Figure
If your upper body is narrower than your hips and thighs, you have a pear-shaped body. Compared to the apple-shaped body, this body shape usually has a flat stomach. The widest part of the body is particularly noticeable at the hips. The waist is narrow, while the pelvis is rather wider. People with this body shape often want to make their wide hips appear proportionate to their body.
You can easily make your wide hips appear narrower with a babydoll cut. Dresses with this shape are wider from the hips downwards. Above the hips, they fit snugly to your body, creating a feminine look. The "Giorgia" dress and the "Vivienne" dress are perfectly suited. They are cut a little shorter, flatter your body and create a great overall figure!
The Triangle Figure
A triangular figure is a pear-shaped body – just the other way around. This body shape is particularly characterized by broad shoulders, which are wider than the hips. This body shape also has fewer curves and a wider back. Many who have this body shape like to focus on their narrow waist and slender legs.
If you tend to have broad shoulders, you can slim them down by emphasizing the vertical body line. Deep necklines such as the V-neck or slit neckline are suitable for this. Our favorites are "Jenna" eyelet dress or "Livia" maxi dress. Both dresses have an enchanting neckline and thus perfectly flatter your figure.
The Rectangle Figure
Simply put, a rectangular body represents a straight-line figure. This body shape is slender and symmetrical. The shoulders and hips have the same width, while the waist is less curvy and the bottom is rather flat. In addition, this figure shape usually has long legs. Here you can focus on your graceful legs.
With a mini dress, you can draw attention to your slender, long legs. A mini dress like "Yuo" or a short A-line dress like "Amanda" is perfectly suited for this. You'll look like a real top model!
The Hourglass Figure
A defined waist, broad bust, and round bottom are typical characteristics of an hourglass figure. The hips appear slightly wider than the waist. This body shape also usually has broad thighs that are narrower than the hips. People with an hourglass figure have the opportunity to emphasize their curves and focus on the waist. Sweet wrap dresses, such as the "Alena" dress, are perfectly suited for this. However, if you prefer a loose dress, such as the "Liberta" dress, you can simply cinch it with a belt. This way, almost any dress will suit you and flatter your body!
