Dresses for the figure "Apple"
The female figure, the shape of which resembles an apple, is quite common. When choosing a dress that will sit on a girl with a similar physique in the most successful and attractive way, it is important to consider what styles help to hide the flaws of the "apple" silhouette.
Features of the figure
The "apple" figure, which is also called the O-shaped silhouette, is distinguished by the presence of:
- Weakly defined waist;
- Wide chest;
- The same width of the hips and shoulders;
- Protruding abdomen;
- Thin hands;
- Pretty slender hips;
- The same volume of the chest and hips;
- Flat buttocks;
- Long legs.
In addition, a girl with such a physique is often noted for a voluminous bust and short stature.
If a woman with a similar figure is gaining weight, it is deposited mainly in the abdomen, so the silhouette of obese women looks quite heavy.
That is why women with this type of figure should carefully consider the choice of clothing: successful styles can make the figure more graceful and feminine.
Stars with this type of figure
An O-type figure is noted for:
- Britney Spears;
- Kelly Clarkson;
- Reese Witherspoon;
- Jessica Simpson;
- Kelly Osbourne;
- Sigourney Weaver;
- Liv Tyler.
Suitable styles
Girls whose figure is similar to an apple are advised to wear:
- Sheath dress. Such an outfit should be quite strict, sleeveless and with a straight skirt.
- A-line dress. It will slim, draw attention away from the waist and lower body imbalances. The cut of the outfit should be fitted, and the skirt, up to mid-thigh length, should be quite fluffy.
- Empire style outfits. Models with a raised waistline are especially in demand among girls - "apple". They will hide the extra centimeters on the belly and at the same time draw attention to the bust. Dresses like this are often chosen for a festive dinner or wedding.
- Dress shirt. Complemented with a wide leather or fabric strap.Safari style models are not a bad choice.
- Straight cut dress. In it, you can hide the protruding belly and lengthen the silhouette.
- Wrap dress. In a similar style, both cocktail outfits and everyday models are in demand.
- Dresses in which the chest is emphasized. These styles include outfits with a corset and bustier dresses.
- Dresses with a skirt sun. Knee-length models look good.
- Models with a tulip skirt, which have a fitted top.
Selection Tips
- Do not choose an overly tight fitting or very loose outfit for the "apple" figure. Such dresses are considered unsuitable for a given body type.
- Pay attention to the fabric of the outfit. With an apple-like figure, dresses made of materials that will freely fit the silhouette and flow are preferable. It can be dense knitwear or wool, but velvet, corduroy, linen and other coarse fabric dresses are not recommended for girls who are “apples”. The rigid and angular silhouette created by these materials will add volume.
- When choosing a color, you should pay attention to monochromatic models (purple, blue, green, brown or purple), as well as dresses with large or vertical prints. For girls with an O-shaped figure, outfits with an abstract pattern or a medium-sized floral print are suitable. Prints such as slanting checks and vertical stripes are also good choices.
- With this type of figure, it is not worth focusing too much on the neckline. The neckline should be moderate. The V-neck model is a good choice. In such an outfit, the waist will be visually thinner.
- When choosing a dress with sleeves, avoid "flashlights" and other bulky styles, as well as the use of shoulder pads. The best choice would be a dress that is missing a sleeve.
- Models of dresses with a thin belt or belt with an "apple" figure are categorically not suitable. In such outfits, the full waist will be delineated even more.
I think that we, apples, were less fortunate than others with a figurine ...
The sweetest, softest and most comfortable))
My mom is an hourglass. Dad is a pear. Sister and brother are triangles. And I'm alone - an apple ...
That's for sure.
But the legs of the apples are the best!
Galya, I don't think so. The apple loses weight easily, but the pear is really out of luck. Breeches with ears can never be removed.
I chose a dress - to go to a wedding, the funny thing is that the sellers are trying not to fit the dress according to the figure, but to squeeze the apple figure into the standard model: detachable at the waist (when there is no waist), tighten the belt (emphasize what is not). A short knee-length dress - full calves are visible, raise a heavy chest so that it matches the darts, and then they get angry, they say, you can't please you. And we also want to be slim - in a flowing flowing midi dress that does not emphasize protruding places and 3/4 sleeves. Having frayed my nerves in stores, received a bunch of negativity from unprofessional sellers who clearly showed that I did not fit the general standard, and the honest ones simply said: there’s nothing on you, and thank you for that. With my still small size 52-54, I was finally lucky. I went next to the house to the nearest basement store, in which a very plump woman was sitting, burying her cell phone, she reluctantly got up and poked a dress into a pair, began to offer me a huge hoodie, and then sat down on a chair again and buried herself in her toy.But in despair, I went back to this shop, convincing myself that maybe I missed a suitable dress last time and, lo and behold, this time there was a courteous and loving saleswoman who picked me up a very stylish cotton and linen dress , combined of different shades and presented jewelry to him (I just saw her on another dress, then she took it off and gave it to me, offering another pair to choose from). Thanks to such people that they still exist. My family gave the outfit a plus.
This is for sure, especially when you are 15 years old ...
Not true)) An inverted triangle is even worse. We at least have a priest.
I, Galochka, very much agree with you ...
The apple figure is a consequence of hormonal problems.
Are you saying that the "apple" is not natural, but a painful distortion of the female figure? Explain in more detail. There is something in this statement. I always thought so too, but I thought it was from improper diet and lifestyle.
I think that some characteristics are very relative to the peculiarities of the "Apple" figure: 1. Poorly expressed waist - only if you do not work on it. 2. There is no wide chest at all. 3. The same width of the hips and shoulders happens in the event that sports are neglected. 4. Protruding belly - also if you neglect sports. 5. Thin hands - often the other way around. 6. Pretty slender hips - always the slender hips in the "apples". 7. The same volume of chest and hips - depends on the size of the chest. 8. Flat buttocks - maybe there are, but more often there are round, very good buttocks. 9. Long legs are true, the slimmest among the rest of the options. Love yourself and be beautiful!)
Clever girl!
I totally agree!
