Busty

The key to dress success for the busty body shape is to create the illusion of a balanced hourglass figure while still showing off that fabulous waistline! Dark, solid colors on top will be the best choice for this body shape. Adding volume to your lower body will create the most curvaceous effect that everyone will be jealous of! Full skirts are your friend! Choose dresses that accentuate your natural waist and do not accentuate your top. Dresses with embellishments or beading at the neckline and bust should be avoided. Empire waists and straight skirts will not show off your best assets or your waistline. Have fun with your shape and add color and prints to the skirt. The busty silhouette looks amazing in the princess ballgown, so feel free to show off your inner diva and go all out! Choose dresses that have a fitted band or belt at your natural waist to achieve the most balanced curves. Dress types that will flatter the busty body shape the best are mermaid, ballgown or trumpet style silhouettes. Just remember dark and solid on top, fitted at the waist and volume and color on the bottom. Scarlett Johansson is the perfect celebrity fashion role model for the busty body type.
