Styling the Hourglass Body Shape: Shoes, Swimsuits and Outfit Ideas

Shoes

Select simple shoes which will lengthen your lower body such as:

> Skintone coloured.

> Cone heel.

> Wedge heel.

> Open-toed or peep-toe.

Swimsuits

Bikinis are most suitable as tops and bottoms can be easily mixed and matched in order to draw attention towards the lower half of the body rather than on the bust, shoulders and stomach. Choose styles with the following designs:

> Tops with wide straps and under wiring to provide support and lift for the bust.

> Long tankinis with supporting control panels to emphasise your waist.

> Bottoms in dark colors. Avoid large waist bands, heavy designs, stripes and ties that lie on the side of the hips.
