Which style of dress is best for your bodyshape?

Miss SOS is loving the great selection of on-trend dresses from Dorothy Perkins online.

Whether you're looking for something to wear for a night out, a special occasion or just a good summer dress to see you through nice lunches, drinks in a beer garden or a family barbecue, your online personal stylist has picked the best of the bunch in terms of style steal but also to suit your shape, read on and find the answer to your style prayers!

PEAR SHAPED
This pink beauty is a real steal for £40 and looks straight off the catwalk. The style will keep you ahead of the fashion game as the shoulders nudge to everything that is autumn/winter 2009. The assymetric design across the front panel is ultra flattering and slimming if you're conscious of your stomach or hip area and the shoulders will balance out pear shaped lovelies. A real winner and Miss SOS recommended.



HOURGLASS
This purple number is a great colour for most skintones and a perfect alternative to the LBD! The style does all the right things for the hourglass shape and you curvier ladies, as the lines are focusing in on the key focus areas!


This floaty swirlprint dress would look great under a shrug or worn as a top over skinny jeans and will work well for more petite hourglass bodies or even those ladies more conscious of their stomach area but wanting to do a cute summer dress.




RECTANGLE
Miss SOS adores this monochrome dress, it has such a designer feel. The panels of colour are so flattering and will create shape for those of you who wish you had more curves! Add a gorgeous wide belt to really draw a waistline and keep it ultra stylish. Killer platforms and an overiszed clutch worn with this will keep the designer appeal.


ATHLETIC / WEDGE
The emphasis on this peplum style dress is focused around the bottom half which is perfect for those of you with a more athletic physique and broader shoulders. The angles and suare neckline will compliment your shape to its best too! Keep it trans-seasonal and wear through autumn/winter over a long sleeve tee in a contrasting colour or a polo, opaque tights and flat riding boots.



APPLE
Miss SOS loves the vintage appeal of this dress - wear it as a dress or tunic layered over blouses and jeans to add even more interest. The drapes down the centre are great for slimming down the torso and middle section, so perfect for the apple bodyshape.


....and just because it is gorgeous! THE colour of the season and THE shoulders of a/w '09! Gorgeous as a dress or tunic top and all for only £15! Dotty Ps we salute you!
