Fall is a bit of a treacherous season because it’s actually halfway between the gentle breezes of summer and the first cold snaps of winter. It’s difficult to find your way to wearing a stylish and consistent look every day during this season.
So how should we dress in Autumn? But more importantly, how to dress in autumn according to your body shape?
We will enlighten you on your doubts, and as always, give you the best professional style advice so that you can see things a little more clearly!
The ideal autumn look according to your morphology
Depending on your body shape, the goal will be to highlight your silhouette as well as your personal assets. Thus, there will be pieces that you should favor in your looks and others that you should avoid depending on your physical characteristics.
In this part, we will analyze how to adopt the ideal fall look for each silhouette and which fall piece to choose for each of you.
–A body type
The main characteristic of your figure is the fact that your hips are more developed than your shoulders. You often have a rather pronounced waist, so you will need to highlight your body by drawing the eye to your bust and shoulders and minimize the volume of your hips.
The fall piece that would suit you best would be:
The jacket:
Choose a mid-length Autumn jacket that will reach a few centimeters below your hip line, or even mid-thigh. Wear your jacket unbuttoned and if you like to give a little more character to your look! You can select a printed jacket for more style (tartan, checks, houndstooth, leopard, etc.)
–V shaped body
The main characteristic of your figure is the fact that your shoulders are more developed than your hips. You often have a more or less pronounced waist, so you will need to highlight your body by drawing the eye down to your silhouette and your magnificent legs while minimizing the volume of your build.
The fall piece that would suit you best would be:
Trousers:
Select palazzo, bootcut or sailor pants in autumn materials (corduroy, denim, cotton twill, suede, leather, etc.) which are very popular at the moment (pants close to the thigh and then flared and more or less bulky) to wear with a pretty angora sweater or V-neck cardigan that you can accessorize with little ankle boots in fall colors.
–H body shape
The main characteristic of your figure is the fact that your hips are in the same alignment as your shoulders. Your waist is very little marked, you will therefore have to highlight your body by avoiding drawing the eye towards your waist line which is almost non-existent and feminize your silhouette as much as possible thanks to the necklines, the transparency as well as the details of your outfit.
The fall piece that would suit you best would be:
The sweater:
So opt for a non-tight sweater that does not mark the waist (no wrap-over or belted sweater). Instead, choose a straight sweater, which follows the lines of your body but which will not be tight. The best thing for you will be to create volume around your missing waist, so you should favor sweaters with large knits, fluffy and a bit flared. Opt for a minimum of neckline to feminize your silhouette and open up your chest area. Choose a sweater in a comfortable and soft material, in a color that brightens your complexion.
–Hourglass body shape
You have a perfectly balanced figure, your shoulders are nicely rounded, you have beautiful developed feminine curves and a marked waist, what more could you ask for? Because everything suits you! Show off your magnificent body and enhance it in a subtle and elegant way.
The fall piece that would suit you best would be:
The lightweight coat:
Choose a light belted coat to highlight your magnificent marked waist. You can choose a good classic like the trench coat which will enhance your feminine figure but you can also go for a coat in light wool belted for more elegance. You will also be able to choose your light coat in autumn materials (gabardine, wool, cashmere, suede) or in leather for more character.
–X body shape
You have ideal and harmonious proportions but you are somewhat lacking in shape. Thin andyour shapes are poorly developed with a rather pronounced waist. You will therefore need to highlight your size and feminize your appearance as much as possible.
The fall piece that would suit you best would be:
The skirt:
Opt for a corolla skirt, a pleated or godet skirt to provide maximum volume around your silhouette as well as lightness in its shape. You can choose a small corolla skirt in light wool for more outfit and chic or a pleated sun skirt, for example colored or in Autumn materials such as suede, leather or even slightly metallic gold or silver lurex. You can then flesh out the top of your silhouette with a simple little feminine blouse or a light sweater worn over a blouse.
–O body shape
You have a very fit silhouette, with very beautiful, harmonious and feminine curves. Your silhouette is very rounded, so accentuate your feminine assets by highlighting them.
The fall piece that would suit you best:
The blouse:
Choose a feminine, flowing blouse that is close to the body without being tight, colorful and ideal for Autumn. You can choose a fluid material like silk, crepe or rayon. The best for you would be to opt for a long or 3/4 sleeve length. We obviously don’t forget the neckline to free your bust and bring femininity to your look.
