Body Shapes

According to Coco Chanel “Fashion is architecture; it is a matter of proportions” and bad balance of clothes, that is clothes not in sync with your body, will reinforces figure flaws (Feldon 2000). It is important to understand and know your body and from there build your style and wardrobe.
Regardless of what your figure, height and weight are you will always look best when you dress for your body shape (Harrington 2008). According to Trinny and Susannah there are 12 different body figures, which deserves a section of its own, but if you are curious and interested in finding your body shape refer to Trinny and Susannah:The Body Shape Bible and or http://www.insideoutstyleblog.com/category/body-shapes-explained/real-life-body-shapes created by image consultant Imogen Lamport.
