When it comes to ethnic wear, most of us like to keep our wardrobe as diverse as possible. While we often like to experiment with colours and styles, body shape plays a major role in deciding whether an outfit fits perfectly or not. The trick is to pick the right kind of outfit to flatter your body shape. Take full advantage of this list to find your perfect fit and let the best of you shine through!
Pear Shape
With a well-defined waist line, a pear-shaped body has prominent bigger hips than the bust. What works best with this body type is a suit with a heavier bottom, such as an anarkali. Be it mid length or floor length anarkalis, they enhance your upper body making you look slender overall. A nemesis for pear shaped body is the A-line suit. However, if you wish to carry off one, cigarette pants and flared palazzos are your trusty friends.

Hour-Glass Body
In an hour-glass shaped body the bust and hips are similar in measurement, while the waist cuts into a smooth curve, akin to an hourglass. To enhance this body frame, wear a crop top and a high waist skirt. With an hour glass figure, you can fearlessly experiment with your neckline. Off-shoulder kurtis, indo-western jump suits and anarkalis can be added to your kitty too. You can also team your outfit with heels to appear taller.

Petite Body
Covering your body with over-flowing anarkalis simply nips off your miniature frame. Hence, to enhance your body frame accurately, wear dhoti pants, with a fitted top and a jacket to complete the outfit. Draped skirts or a lehnga work well along with a uniform coloured sheer sari. The idea is to lessen the layers and wear clothing which add curves to your frame.

Athletic Body
This body type calls for you to enhance your shoulders and legs, and deter attention from the midsection of your body. To achieve this, don off-shoulder blouses and kurtas. Make the most of your toned arms and boldly wear a full-sleeve blouse with a sari or single-shoulder ruffled gown. These can be teamed with simple, yet stylish earrings to complete the outfit.
