Dressing to your silhouette can sometimes feel like a trial-and-error process. But developing your own style, and loving how you look in what you wear, doesn’t mean you have to bend to every trend.
You’re always growing, learning, and changing, so your personal style should evolve with you!
One of the simplest ways to elevate your style is by understanding what suits you and your body shape. If you have a fuller bust and narrow hips, you may fall under what’s known as an ‘apple body shape’.
Here are 10 styles we’re loving right now that are perfectly flattering to your figure:
Gigi Coat
Why We Love It: The Gigi Coat is a flattering choice for most apple body shapes. It shows off your arms with its sleeveless, cape-style design while the self-tie waist can be adjusted to get that perfect fit. It also ends in a hi-lo hemline for a dramatic finish!
How We’d Style It: Getting the Gigi Coat in a gorgeous cream color makes it easy to style over anything. You can even build your outfit around this coat by wearing it over a sleeveless, knee-length dress.

Harley Classic Flare Jean
Why We Love It: Everyone needs a great pair of jeans in their wardrobe.

How We’d Style It: Let the flared shape of these jeans stand out by wearing a close-fit tee or tucked-in shirt. Just like any great pair of jeans, this dark wash works well with most casual outfits.
