Fall Fashions To Suit Every Shape

What is Fall fashion? This Fall there are beautiful clothes to suit everyone and to make you feel special. I have been shopping online from my comfy couch and have found some clothes to suit every body shape. Not all current trends and styles suit everyone, you need to find what style suits your body shape and makes you look and feel good this Fall. Whether you are petite or full figured there is something special to be found online. We all like to look good and we need to find a style that flatters our figures. We aren’t all super models so don’t expect super model clothes to suit you. I have found some great fashion ideas for everyone. From the free and flowing BoHo look to a styled and waist fitted little dress, read on to see what suits your shape. I window shopped at three great web sites for fall fashion. They are shopbop.com, Yoox.com and ShopTheTrendBoutique.com. They all had some great new trends and styles for fall to suit us all.

I found some great BoHo or Bohemian clothes at ShopTheTrendBoutique.com. This style of clothing looks great on anyone who is apple shaped. These dresses help hide your tummy and give the appearance of longer legs with the flowing patterned fabric. Stay away from big bold prints but a subtle all over floral motif with some colored vertical stripes will look great. If you are apple shaped don’t choose anything that has a dropped waist detail or pulls in at the waist with a belt as this will only emphasize your tummy. A belt also cuts you in half and can make you look shorter. You want something to elongate you. There is also a great range under maxi dresses at shopbop.com.

If you have a pear shape body with larger hips and backside you’ll want something to take the eyes away from the hip area. This fall why not take advantage of a great jacket with a big collar of some faux fur detail at shoulder height. I found the following jacket at shopbop.com. The large collar and faux fur draws the eyes up to the shoulder area without lingering on the hips.

Leave this jacket undone and let it flow around and past your hips. Also look for a wide, long jacket shape that will lengthen your look. If you are pear shaped you will want to avoid any of the current peplum trend as this style emphasizes the waist to hip curve and will make your backside and hips huge. I also found some great jackets at ShopTheTrendBoutique.com. Pair the jacket with a pair of beautiful dress pants from shopbop.com and you will have a great outfit. Use a blouse to add some fresh color to your outfit.

I found some great military styled jacket, skirts and pants that will flatter the fuller figured girl. There are some great smart jackets and pants and Yoox.com and shopbop.com. These styles of clothes, especially with a longer style coat will make you taller and smooth out some of those curves. A structured jacket falling below the waist would be a great look over a pair of wide leg pants. No need for dark colors either, but choose any bold patterns with large shapes. And like the pear shaped body don’t go for the peplum look either as it will only emphasize your curves or make them appear bigger.

For those lucky girls with an hourglass shape you want to emphasize your waist. The new fashion sheath style dress that hugs your waist or a straighter style dress with a belt is perfect. Team it with a short jacket and you are set for fall. I found this great belted dress at shopbop.com.

There was a great range of dresses at ShopTheTrendBoutique.com as well. A real no no for the hourglass figure is a BoHo style dress. Your lovely small waist will get lost in the flowing fabric. Maybe a short BoHo style to wear to the beach or pool would be great.

If you are tall and thin, the new peplum will emphasize your waist to hip area and make you curvier. The accented hip area gives you a more hourglass shape by putting curves on your body. There is a great range of tops and jackets and dresses at ShopTheTrendBoutique.com and shopbop.com. You should avoid all flowing styles of dresses like the BoHo collections as you will get lost just like a woman with an hour glass figure. You should also avoid most military style clothing as you will look tall and straight with no curves to be seen.

For those petite women I found some great bold printed suits at ShopTheTrendBoutique.com and Yoox.com. These styles will make you look bigger than you are and with the great colors available this season you can’t go wrong. Also a nice pant with a long jacket will make you look taller than you are. You should avoid peplums as they are too busy at the waist and will tend to cut you in half.  Also avoid the sheath dress as they will overwhelm a small frame.

All of us need to avoid certain styles because they make us look to curvy and chubby or too tall and thin. We all need to emphasize our good body features and cover up or minimize the look of the bad bits we don’t like. If you need to wear the latest fashion trends for your shape, just visit shopbop.com, ShopTheTrendBoutique.com and yoox.com, you will find a great trendy outfit for fall and you won’t be disappointed.
