Are you shopping for your size or your shape?

It is more and likely you are shopping for your size.

Do you ever go into a store and you pick up your "size" and it fits?  But then you visit another store pick up your "size" again and it doesn't?  That is because all brands run differently.  And the number in the label is just that a number.  When you visit Ladies Plus Size Resale we highly recommend that our customers try on a size smaller and larger than what they think they wear.  This helps with fitting your shape.  We will be going over some common shapes along with best fitted styles for those shapes.

FOUR MAJOR BODY TYPES

• Banana: Straight up and down. Use voluminous clothes to create a shape: A-line skirts, trouser pants, boot cut pants, blousy tops.

• Apple: Broad through the shoulders; narrow in the waste in hips. Use wide leg bottoms and a-line skirts to even out broad shoulders. V-necks minimize broad shoulders

• Pear: Narrow Shoulders and bust; broad through the hips and thighs. Straight leg (not skinny) and boot cut pants work best on this shape. Pencil skirts are a great option as well. Boat neck tops will also broaden the shoulders and give a more even shape.

• Hourglass: Narrow Waist; Broad through the hips and bust. Dress to flatter, not flatten your curves! Emphasize the waist! Most shapes work on this type.

Universally Flattering Pieces

• Boot Cut Pants
• A-line Skirts
• Wrap Dresses
• V-neck Tops
