The figure 8 is the body shape everyone dreams of. It's the ideal body shape for all women; a true balance between the different parts of the body. Do you know the clothes that highlight this ideal body shape?
The specificities of the 8 morphology
The figure 8 is very similar to the X, also known as the hourglass. The only difference is that women with an 8 shape have a more rounded shape. The shoulder width is equal to the hip width and the waist is defined, giving a slim and balanced waist. You can wear a lot of clothes , but there are still some rules about what to wear and what not to wear.
You have a wasp waist, take advantage of it to wear clothes that make you shine brightly!
Clothes to wear to enhance an 8-shaped body
The best clothes for you
It's not easy to choose the perfect cut for your body shape. We often find ourselves in the store, facing the clothing aisles, taking several items into our shopping cart and showing off to our friends! But without having thought beforehand to determine which garment is right for us. Shopping is often fun, but it can sometimes last for hours and hours. If you already know your size, you'll save time ; you'll be able to fill your wardrobe with your eyes closed!
Skirts and pants
There are various cuts, but the A-line skirt is definitely for you! It's a skirt that's fitted at the waist and flares out at the sides. It's a skirt that will perfectly highlight your curves. Also, avoid very loose pants. They don't show off your beautiful legs; they might even hide them. So, opt for straight pants, chinos, cigarette pants, etc.
Tops
Women with a size 8 generally have a generous bust (and that's not given to everyone), so it's best to show it off, without being vulgar, of course! There are thousands of tops to choose from. Choose fitted, fitted tops rather than one that's too short. Fitted sweaters are also recommended to show off your curves.
Dresses
Choosing a dress is never easy, whether it's for an evening out, a day at work, or a beach vacation. It's a garment that shouldn't be purchased without careful consideration. Indeed, the dress covers the entire body, from the shoulders to the legs. Opt instead for fitted dresses in flowing fabrics rather than loose-fitting dresses. Don't panic; if you have a favorite dress that's relatively loose, accessorize it with a belt to cinch in your waist.
Coats
The coat is the piece of clothing that completes the outfit. Choosing the cut of a coat, or the color for that matter, isn't always easy! Choose fitted blazers and trapeze-shaped coats over coats that are too long and too tight.
Jerseys
Believe it or not, but for the figure 8 body type, all swimsuits are allowed. You can wear all shapes of swimsuits. But, if we had to give you a little advice, the swimsuit that you absolutely must have in your summer wardrobe is the backless swimsuit . If you are a little self-conscious about your body (but ladies there is no reason not to be), you can tie a beautiful little pareo around your waist.
But ultimately, no matter what outfit you wear, the main thing is to feel good about yourself, in your body and in your mind ! Be in harmony with yourself!
