Top Dress Tips For A Cornet Shape

  • Best dresses for a cornet shape are full-skirted chiffon dresses made from floaty chiffon fabrics which will soften your frame and add curves. V-Neck lines are a must as they draw the eye away from the shoulders and down to your waistline. Go for pretty, pastel feminine colours and dresses with ruffles and frills to the skirt section as this will bring your shoulders back in to proportion.
  • Long halter neck chiffon dresses with V-Necklines are a must-have dress for you as it adds femininity to your shape. Look for draping detail at the bust section which will provide a more curvaceous look to your bust, whilst the Halter Neck wide straps will narrow your broad shoulders to help balance your figure.
  • Look out for One Shoulder mini dresses with drapes in a flirty, floaty chiffon material and show off those long lean legs.
