How to Dress for Your Body Type This Summer

August 24, 2026

Every body is a summer body. Here's how to dress yours with confidence.

At LA’BREA’S BOUTIQUE, we celebrate every shape, every curve, every woman. Fashion is not one-size-fits-all — and it shouldn’t be. Here’s your guide to dressing for YOUR body type this summer so you can walk out the door feeling like the most confident version of yourself every single day.

⌛ Hourglass

You have a defined waist with balanced hips and shoulders — celebrate it! Choose styles that highlight your natural shape.

✅ Wrap dresses that cinch at the waist
✅ Belted styles that define your curves
✅ Fitted silhouettes that follow your shape
✅ High-waist bottoms paired with tucked-in tops

💜 Pear Shape

Your hips are wider than your shoulders — balance and celebrate your proportions with these styles.

✅ A-line skirts that flow from the waist
✅ Wide-neck or off-shoulder tops to broaden the shoulder line
✅ Bold, statement tops to draw the eye upward
✅ Dark bottoms paired with bright or patterned tops

💛 Apple Shape

You carry weight around your midsection — elongate and flatter with these silhouettes.

✅ Empire waist dresses that flow from just below the bust
✅ Flowy tunics and tops that skim the midsection
✅ V-necks that elongate the neckline
✅ Monochrome outfits that create a long, lean line

💚 Rectangle

Your shoulders, waist, and hips are similar in width — create curves and dimension with these styles.

✅ Ruffles and peplum tops that add volume
✅ Belted waists to create the illusion of curves
✅ Layered looks that add depth and dimension
✅ Wrap styles that create a defined waist

💙 Inverted Triangle

Your shoulders are broader than your hips — balance your silhouette with these styles.

✅ Flared and wide-leg pants that add volume below
✅ Midi and maxi skirts that balance broader shoulders
✅ Softer shoulder lines — avoid strong shoulder pads
✅ Bold prints and patterns on the bottom half

The real rule? Wear what makes YOU feel amazing. Confidence is always the best accessory — and it looks good on every body type, every size, every woman.
