What women should wear to a party

Hourglass — shoulders and hips balanced, defined waist

Play up your waist — it's your best line, so never hide it. Pick fitted or wrap styles over anything boxy — let clothes follow your shape. Avoid: shapeless oversized fits that erase your waistline.

Pear — hips wider than shoulders

Play up your upper body — draw the eye up. Brighter colours, boat necks and statement sleeves on top; keep bottoms darker and simpler. Avoid: tight, light-coloured bottoms with clingy short tops.

Apple — fuller through the middle, slimmer legs

Play up your legs and neckline — both are assets. Empire waistlines, anarkalis and flowy A-line dresses skim the midsection gracefully. Avoid: clingy fabrics or thick belts right at the middle.

Rectangle — fairly straight up and down

Play up created curves — your job is adding dimension. Peplums, ruffles, tiered lehengas and layering create the curves fabric can fake. Avoid: straight shift shapes head-to-toe that read flat.

Inverted triangle — shoulders wider than hips

Play up your lower half — add volume below to balance the frame. Flared skirts, palazzos, wide-leg trousers and full lehengas balance strong shoulders. Avoid: puff sleeves, shoulder pads and wide boat necks.
