Styling Tips for Curve Dresses
When it comes to styling your curves, it's about embracing your body shape and finding the perfect fit. We've got some styling tips to help you rock those curves with confidence in dresses that will make you the envy of every room.

Consider Your Body Shape: Embrace What Mama Gave You
Let's be real, we come in all shapes and sizes, and that's what makes us unique. Own your body shape, whether you're a sassy apple, a bodacious pear, a va-va-voom hourglass, a sleek rectangle, or a top of the world triangle. The key is to choose dresses that accentuate your assets and make you feel like a queen. Dive into our guide on "How to Dress For Your Shape" for a dose of body-loving inspiration.

Consider Colours: Paint the Town Fabulous
When it comes to colours, you've got the whole palette to play with. Here's the scoop:

  • Block Colours: Play with solid colours. Keeping tonal will always create a seamless silhouette and classic black is always a winner, but don't be afraid to unleash your inner rainbow with vibrant hues that reflect your personality and style. Considering placement is key, remember dark colours minimise, light colours accentuate. 
  • Florals: Blossom like the fierce flower you are. Floral prints can be a curvy girl's best friend. Look for dresses with floral patterns that are strategically placed to enhance your curves and draw attention to your best assets. If you are blessed with luscious curves then opt for curve dresses like curve wrap dresses.
  • Neutrals: Be a neutral goddess. Soft nude and blush tones create an elegant and versatile canvas. They're the perfect backdrop for adding a splash of pizzazz with a statement belt and vibrant pops of colour.

Make it easier on yourself and shop our dresses for lots of options to inspire you.

Consider Occasion

  • Formal: When it's time to bring the glam, reach for dresses with exquisite cuts and luxurious fabrics. Our collection of formal dresses offers a range of sophisticated curve dress options to suit your style.
