The Perfect Lingerie For Your Body Shape & Lingerie Apparel Styling Tips

This article provides a brief guide on choosing the perfect lingerie for your body shape—hourglass, pear, rectangle, and triangle. Discover how to style these pieces for special occasions, transforming them into statement elements of your ready-to-wear outfits.

HARLOW LOOKS

Rectangle Shape

For a rectangle body shape, which features a straight silhouette, opting for lingerie that adds curves and definition is key. Harlow's wide elastic statement pieces are perfect for creating bold lines around the waist and underbust, accentuating your natural shape. Add fine lines around the hips and bust to sculpt and highlight your figure -to transform your RTW styling into a more defined and feminine silhouette.

Pair the Harlow Convertible Belt with a loose slip dress to create an hourglass figure. For high side-slit dresses, complement your look with the Harlow Garters.

ANGI LOOKS

Hourglass Shape

For an hourglass shape, lingerie that accentuates natural curves is ideal. Contour lines enhance your figure, while high-waist briefs flatter your waist and hips. Bras with high-neck droplet designs or straight shoulder straps perfectly complement your balanced proportions, adding elegance and definition.

Pair the Angi High-Neck Droplet Bra with an open-cut dress or a loose shirt to highlight the bra's details. For a striking look, wear the Angi Contour Thighs with a high side-slit slip dress to showcase the thigh contours.

DECADENCE

Pear Shape

For pear-shaped women, balance proportions by drawing attention to the upper body. Harnesses or waspies with neck details and high-neck dresses with waist-slimming designs are perfect for enhancing your bust and defining your waist. Skimpy strapped or tightly knit dresses highlight the upper body and fit snugly around the waist, accentuating your hips for a flattering look.

BEST MATCHED WITH HARNESSES

You can style our harnesses to peek out from beneath an open-cut dress or layer them over a tight-fitting dress, creating a stunning visual effect. Best styled with high-neck tight-fit dresses, open cut strappy-top, loose-fit dresses or plain scooped open front dresses.

DECADENCE

Triangle Shape

For a rectangle body shape with broad shoulders and a straight or slightly hourglass lower body, the goal is to balance proportions. Choose lingerie with straight shoulder straps to elongate the torso and narrow the shoulders, and opt for crossover strap bras to draw attention away from the shoulders. Pair these with waist-flattering garters and high-rise, low-cut thongs to accentuate the waist and create curves.

BEST MATCHED WITH CARMEN
