Flattering your pear shaped figure in your beach wedding dressIf you have been blessed with a classically feminine pear shaped figure then you have a small and defined upper body and wider hips and thighs. This type of build is by far the most common among women and has thankfully been made sexy again by celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez. The key to flattering your pear shaped figure in your beach wedding dress is to somehow draw the attention away from your hip area and to highlight your other features. Here are a few ways to accomplish this: 1. Firstly decide what it is you would like to highlight before choosing your beach wedding dress. This could be your elegant neck, beautiful collarbones, shapely arms, feminine cleavage or a small firm waistline. This will help you choose the best dress style. 2. Identify the styles you should avoid. These are any dresses that fit tightly around the hip area such as mermaid style dresses or sheath dresses. These will only emphasise your hips. 3. Styles that work well are A-line dresses, empire waists, off-shoulder styles or any dresses that flair at the hip, but have interesting details on the bodice. 4. If you wear your hair down or halfway down it will create more balance. Have a look at the Beach Wedding Hairstyle page for more ideas on suitable hairstyles. Here are a few beautiful beach wedding dresses to complement a pear shaped figure:
