WIDE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM

Each shape has a name so that if you brave your closet or local mall without a copy of our body shapes, you'll still remember what your strengths are. In our Book Dress me Now - How to Make Your Wardrobe Behave this shape is named:

CATHERINE THE GREAT
Full Bodied Russian Royal and Horse Lover
Wide Torso/No Waist

Catherine the Great ladies are built to hold powerful personalities. Some women are born to have this shape while others are made that way, especially after the hormonal ravages of child birth or menopause. For many women, this is a healthy body shape but the pressures of modern society leads us all to feel otherwise.

If you choose to get around a waistline that has gone AWOL, the following precautions are for you. Like Venus de Milo, Catherines should always keep "balance" in mind. Think of the widest part of your body as a strength that doesn't need any more attention.

Key: For this body type, shape and color is important. Colors should be muted, monochromatic is best and prints should be kept to a minimum. Avoid clothes with pleats or gathers and jackets that stop anywhere from navel to hips. Buy maxi length blouses, vests, or duster coats that you can wear open over your clothes Accessories are your friends Wear scarves and jewelry that draw the eye to the top or center of the torso. A word of warning: today's clunky shoes are not for you.
