Apple

An apple body shape

This body shape general characterized by round shape, especially in the upper body. When the area is more full is in the stomach area. Round-shouldered, flat buttocks, averages to large chest, shapely thin legs.

There are two forms of apple body: oval and diamond, the difference is if your belly area is located lower (it's oval-shaped) or higher (this diamond shape).

The main style guidelines for both apple body shapes are the same. The key is to create a body length and cover the belly area. Adding an interesting texture or prints , or with an interesting cut, ruffles and pleats and also with tailored jackets, will draw attention toward your shoulders and face.

Rebel Wilson

On the right - a flattering wrap dress. The chest area is cut in a beautiful, symmetrical and flattering way with an envelope neckline. Below the bust, the dress is close to the body and forms the waistline. The diagonal lines of the envelope cut correctly and flatters the entire wide area of the body. The fabric contractions in the stomach area obscure the stomach.

On the left - a dress with a straight cut, without cleavage, expands and enlarges the entire chest and shoulder area. Together with the elbow-length sleeves create in our eyes a rectangular and wide appearance for the entire upper part of the body.

Melissa McCartney

On the right - a blouse with a peplum cut, tight under the bust and thus creates the illusion of a narrow waistline and expands and blurs the stomach area. A pencil skirt emphasizes the narrow and slim part of the leg. Using a large print fits the proportions of the body.

On the left - a dress that is too tight in the stomach area, only sticking it out. A closed and unflattering neckline, creating a square and wide look. Sleeves whose length falls on the widest part of the body draw the eye there, making it stand out more. Unflattering dress length creates a square look.
