If this is the area she'd like to accentuate, she's one step closer to finding the perfect suit. However, only 13 percent said they used a tape measure to determine their shape. With her body shape in mind, a woman can choose a style and silhouette that helps create the illusion of balance. When a body appears to be in proportion or looks balanced, the figure is enhanced. To help women select suits that most flatter their figures, Lands' End assigns figure icons to each suit.
Suits get a star rating when they have features that flatter any body shape.
Women can use these icons as a guide, easing the struggle in finding the best suit for them. Try a skirted suit or a two-piece suit with shorts to add volume to the lower half of your body to balance the top. Look for a suit that offers good support and coverage. Suits sized by bra cup offer a better fit. Highlight your waistline with a two-piece suit.
