Unlike the V-shaped body, the A-shaped body is characterized by more volume in the lower body. Your hips, thighs, and buttocks are “wide” while your shoulders and chest are narrower.
Advice from Stéphanie, Gualap image consultant
I advise you to avoid wearing tights . I encourage you to focus more on your upper body to add volume to your silhouette.
The A body shape is also called the pyramid body shape . A woman with a very slim body or, on the contrary, with very curvy curves can have an A body shape. This comes in several body types .
What distinguishes A body shape from another body shape is mainly the difference between the size of the top and the bottom . A body shape is often envied by girls with other body shapes (X, 8, H, O or V), do you know why?
Because you have a body type like Beyoncé or Shakira! Learn how to make it a strength, ladies.
