Top Dress Tips For An Apple Shape

  • Best dresses for an apple shape is a wrap dress which usually has a tie to the side which will draw attention away from the tummy area and to the side of the body. The 'A' shape of the skirt creates volume just above the knee line, and skims over the tummy. The width at the bottom of the skirt will help your waistline look smaller, and showcase your gorgeous legs.


  • Fitted Prom Dresses are also brilliant to wear as they create a waist which is key for apple shapes. A-Line Shapes and high-waist empire line dresses draw a horizontal line underneath the bust, whilst the flared skirt and nipped-in waistband help to create more of a sexy hourglass shape.


  • Before you go looking for a dress, why not consider some body control underwear. A waist cincher is like a modern day corset - it cinches you in at the middle and will help define a waistline.
