Balance

How do you know if you "are" an hourglass? Take note: the shoulders and hips are balanced and the same width, and the waist is much narrower and more marked. It is the silhouette that corresponds to the 90-60-90. If you are thin, you have no problems choosing a set, but if you are large, avoid garments that do not fit your figure, especially those that end up just at the height of your hips. The most useful accessory for you are belts, both sash-type widths and very thin ones.

And if you haven't just seen what your body type is, take this test!
