The Triumph of Individual Style : A Guide to Dressing Your Body, Your Beauty, Your Self- Carla Mason Mathis, Helen Villa Connor

Product Description
This text aims to teach the reader how to assess her body type and then choose clothing
that looks good on her. The process involves what the authors call an individual s design
pattern. This pattern is made up of lines, shapes, proportions, body particulars, scale,
colors, and textures. How they fit together in harmony and how an individual infuses them
with her innate creativity is what authors call style.

Dress Your Best: The Complete Guide to Finding the Style That's Right for Your Body (Boek)

From Publishers Weekly
The spunky hosts of TLC's What to Wear present a fashion guide that's empowering, friendly and exceedingly useful. No gimmicky, fruit-related body shape names here Kelly and London keep things simple. For each of their female body types "bigger on top," "bigger on the bottom," "a little extra in the middle," "curvy," "not curvy," etc. there's advice for petite, average height and tall women. (The men's section is equally straightforward if shorter: "tall," "athletic," "barrel-chested," etc.) Kelly and London use positive reinforcement (there are many more "dos" than "don'ts"), and sprinkle "universal tips" applicable to any body type throughout. Each type's section opens with a photo of an average-looking model sporting a basic swimsuit, along with comments from the model and the authors. Although they don't cite brand or store names, Kelly and London give plenty of specific advice: e.g., a straight dress will accentuate curves on an hourglass shape; a jacket with a moderately low "stance" (v-neck) will help the upper body appear longer. Ladies and gentlemen, start your shopping engines and don't leave home without this book!
