Apple Body Shape
The apple body shape commonly has slim legs and average shoulders, but with an undefined waist and a fuller bust. Consider an off-the-shoulder prom dress or an empire-waist dress that falls delicately over your waistline and balances your silhouette. You can also choose a high-low ballgown that highlights your leg features.
Pear Body Shape
A pear body type typically has hips larger than the bust, full thighs and the waist is well defined. A-line or Ballgown silhouette is a great choice for your prom dress. Don’t forget the strapless, off-the-shoulder, open back details to show your upper body curve. Try to avoid long-sleeve prom dresses that will hide your upper body.
Busty Body Shape
The busty body type, means you have wider shoulders and a larger bust with slim hips and slender legs. With this body type, you can accentuate your hips with a mermaid or ruffled gown that shows off your hips.
Rectangle Body Shape
