The figure-eight silhouette
The epitome of femininity: the art of enhancing your voluptuous curves and highlighting a divinely defined waist.
In the world of fashion, charisma is born from harmony. Before enhancing your look, it's essential to understand your unique body shape. The figure-eight silhouette is the voluptuous sister of the hourglass figure: it's distinguished by a generous bust, rounded hips, and a very defined, slim waist.
"Your mission: to showcase your curves. Don't hide them, celebrate them as a signature of absolute elegance."
To be preferred
- Defined waists: Use thin belts or fitted coats to draw attention to your best feature: your wasp waist.
- Wrap-style cuts: Wrap dresses and tops are your best allies; they hug your curves with a noble fluidity.
- Peplum Tops: These pieces were designed for you. They define the waist and fall gracefully over the hips.
- Necklines: Opt for low necklines and open necklines that allow the head to be held high and enhance the bust.
- Bottoms: Dare to wear high-waisted skirts. For trousers, opt for lightweight fabrics and straight or skinny cuts to elongate the silhouette.
- Accessories: Thin belts accentuate your silhouette without adding unnecessary bulk.
Avoid
To maintain a balanced silhouette, avoid loose-fitting clothing that hides your curves and adds bulk. Turtlenecks and high necklines tend to constrict the bust, while double-breasted jackets create unnecessary volume. Also avoid overly flared trousers or voluminous skirts that reach mid-hip, as these can make you appear shorter.
Now that you hold the secrets to your silhouette, all that remains is for you to express your style with confidence.
