The Body Shape Chart information below is the result of thirty years of assessing and dressing women that visited our Shop Boutique, who have come in all shapes, sizes and ages, and realising quite simply that shape is the single most important factor in influencing how you dress.

The categories below cover the most common blends of the female form.

Ninety-nine percent of women fall into one ( or possibly two ) of these categories.

Take a look at our chart below for an overview of the twelve shapes. Once you have established the one which best describes you, take a look at the body shape icon to read the defining features of your shape. If you feel that your body shape falls between two silhouettes, then take a look at both.
