Sizes for every body type

It’s no secret that there is a perfect cut and shape out there for every body type. At EMP, you can easily pick out the right clothing for your figure. Do you have a slim waist and a large bust with rounded hips and bum? Then you’re probably an hourglass. Emphasise your narrow waist or draw the eye towards your cleavage. Tailored jackets or tops with a low neckline suit this body type well. You should choose darker colours for your thigh and hip area, to bring the attention towards your upper body. For trousers, a pair of trendy high-waist jeans is perfect. A fitted dress is a great choice for everyday and special occasions.

The pear shape is characterised by a slim upper body, wide hips and larger thighs. For this body type, you should bring the focus towards your upper half, for example by wearing rounded necklines or shirts with eye-catching colours and embellishments. A pair of sleek, dark trousers or a dark-coloured skirt without any noticeable patterns is ideal to visually slim down your lower body.

If you have a more rounded middle, you should emphasise your legs with a pair of skinny jeans or leggings, to bring the focus onto your best feature. Punchy colours and patterns will increase the effect further. On your upper body, tops with a V-neckline or a waterfall collar work with your shape to make your silhouette appear longer.

Strawberry shapes have a wider upper body and a narrower lower body. To balance your upper and lower halves, brightly coloured or lighter coloured trousers, leggings or skirts work particularly well – you can also experiment with various patterns and embellishments. For your upper body, you should lean towards darker colours. How about a dark-coloured halter neck for example? V-neck cuts are also a good option.
