Top 4: Go to Silhouettes for a Petite Frame

Sunday, July 5, 2015
Shape, Silhouette, and Style. Three major characteristics that are the driving force of clothing distribution. How a particular garment outlines and conforms to your body is what makes that little black dress your FAVORITE dress. Garments that create a silhouette help you work with the flaws that we all have. Here is my list of the top 4 garment types that create the perfect silhouette.





1. The A- Line
Silhouette Series:A-Line

The A-Line skirt is perfect for adding length to legs that are otherwise...clears throat, short. It camouflages the hips for those pair shaped beauties.

2. The Tulip
Silhouette Series: The Tulip

The shape of the tulip skirt is a bit more rounded and usually sit right above the knee. Showing leg is key if you are shorter. Perfect for knee boots in the winter.

3. The Empire
Silhouette Series: The Empire Waist

The empire waist is a Godsend! This lovely silhouette allows you to keep your waist trainer in the drawer. Not only does it add a waist it flatters the midsection. Empire waist garments tend to be light and loose dresses.

4. The Fit and Flare
Sillhouette Series: Fit and Flare

This fit is my all-time favorite. This mid-length dress, also known as the "midi-dress', was made popular in the 1940s and 1950s during a post-war time of self-restraint. The life of "liquor and jazz" fo the roaring the 1920s had come to an end.
