Old world charm

In the crowded concrete jungle of high rises and modern technology, the old world charm still tells tales of the era bygone.

A glimpse of the beautiful Old world charm still thriving amidst the urban chaos in Pune City.

Trying to capture it all through my camera.

I love the old charming structures, their work, their architecture, the mystique.
The Era that was......
 Pune

Part 2 -- black LBD for every body shape

Following --- Part 1--Love with Little Black Dress ( LBD)


This is the Part 2 of Love with little black dress (LBD)


As we saw in the earlier post that the LBD is a fashion classic and is a must have in the closet for every girl / women.
Every girl should have it, but every girl has a different body shape, lets find out a perfect black dress for every girl out there.


to know in detail about body structures and shape click here


Pear shaped body / bottom heavy


A line dress, fuller silhouettes, fabric that skims the lower half of the body and enhances the upper half, think cinched waists, halter dresses, empire dresses.Drive attention to the upper half of the body with details and camouflage the lower half.




Apple shaped body / inverted triangle-


a body having top heavier than bottom, such body type females should go easy on the top and have a well fitted bottom.Avoid large , plunging or deep necklines. Draw attention to the lower half body with detailing on the skirt , figure hugging, keep the upper half simple and considerable loose.





Banana shape body/ rectangular/petite


Having hardly any curves, this body type should go in for dresses which are more feminine and gives an image of curves. Try dresses with greater detailing, wear more prominent necklines. A sheath dress ending just above the knees always works wonders.Empire line, chemise fit, ruching, trimmings, work on the bust will all suit petite person to achieve a feminine and a fuller look.











Hourglass / curvy figure


A curvy body, with bust hip ratio almost same, voluptuous figure with a comparatively small waist (think Betty Boop)
If you are blessed with the hourglass figure then most of the dresses suit you and you can experiment with your style. V necks and A lines look fabulous though.





Plus size

For those on the heavier side with big curves, Lbd rocks too. Go in for wrap dresses, dresses which give the image of curvy body.








Other challenging areas


wide shoulders - one shoulder dress, asymmetrical neckline


flabby arms- long sleeves, semi transparent sleeves. slit sleeves


unattractive legs - go in for a little longer dress.


Thick waistline- lower the waistline, raise it with a line or empire or eliminate it altogether with a sheath dress


too thin- think of loads of layers, ruffles, bows, details.


thick thighs- think A line, fabric flowing and skimming the lower body.
