If you are Plump:
- Keep it simple ,whether its the silhoutte detailing or embellishment.Keep clear of shiney fabrics,frills and large patterns.
- Sari's in fabrics that drape and flow softly such as chiffons,georgette's,crepe are very flattering for your body shape, as are v-neck cholis.
- Don't be afraid of wearing colour,but stick to mid-tones and deeper colours
- Silhouttes like the anarkali will work very well for this body shape but make sure its a well fitted garment till the torso.
- Add contrasting lighter colours as accents with dupattas, pallas and accessories
- Dont weigh yourself down with jewellery.Scale your jewellery to your body size.
If you are Tall :
