In addition, the jeans mentioned in the title description are not completely right, so I won't discuss them in detail. After I update them, the theme should understand why.
Answer: Jeans can't enter formal occasions. Everyone's legs are different. It is basically better to wear a skirt with wide hips and thick thighs. In addition to matching with the same color system, color contrast is also a common matching skill, but the same color system can really increase the sense of coordination.
1 Know yourself
1. 1 Know your body shape
The first picture: banana type.
First of all, let's make a general body classification. In the picture above, the female figure is divided into four types:
Theoretically, these four types are distinguished by measurement. Bananas are very small in circumference, and there is little difference in circumference (the answer is that the tall banana type is basically shoulder-width, so it looks at least not straight, just emphasizing the waistline, generally with long legs, and it is not difficult to match); Apple type belongs to the normal range, the gap between chest and waist is large, and the gap between waist and hip is small (showing that there is no waist outside), and in many cases, even if the weight is light, the meat on the stomach is surprisingly much; Pear-shaped chest circumference is small, waist circumference is generally small, and hip circumference is large (for Asians, even if hip circumference is similar, because Asians have flat hips, the front is pear-shaped (chest is long, so the front is narrow, hips are wide and hips are flat)); Finally, it is the most ideal perfect figure, which is hourglass-shaped, with big chest, big waist and thin buttocks. The big skeleton is the goddess arrival, and the small skeleton is the grinding goblin.
The above is only a theoretical classification method. In fact, the specific body shape depends not only on the measurements, but also on the front. In addition to measurements, important figure data also include height, shoulder width, leg length, head shape, face shape, hairstyle, facial features and so on, which will affect the overall temperament and style, and will be explained in detail with examples below.
Why put forward the classification style of body shape? Because after knowing our body shape, we can know what needs to be changed according to the theory to achieve the final X-shape. For example, the banana type needs to strengthen the chest and crotch lines, the apple type needs to strengthen the waist and crotch lines, and the pear type needs to strengthen the upper body and weaken the lower body, showing a natural and beautiful curve from the waist to the crotch. Moreover, due to the influence of factors such as leg length and shoulder width, even the perfect X-shape needs attention in collocation in order to present a better state.
The following four kinds are introduced in detail, all based on my personal understanding and judgment. Welcome to join the discussion.
Banana type: one is a girl with a small skeleton, with narrow shoulders and narrow hip bones, so the waist line is not obvious. Generally, this figure will be matched with a flat chest.
The advantage of temperament is that it is small, and casual clothes can basically be controlled. In China, it will be very sought after under the aesthetics of bird legs. But if it is too thin, it will have a great sense of sight. If it is not white, it will look dull and it is difficult to have an aura.
A typical representative of banana figure.
Based on the above physical characteristics and facial feelings,
Banana figure suitable for walking posture are:
Lori style, small jasper, gentleness, literary spirit, simple and elegant neutral style, tomboy (not recommended)-in terms of body shape, the banana figure mentioned here is generally small, giving people a light and compact feeling. It is suggested to pay more attention to girlhood and purity.
The routes that bananas are not suitable for are:
Sexy, gorgeous, royal sister, queen
The suitability and unsuitability here are all in the general sense. With a suitable hairstyle scene, american born chinese can also take a rather feminine route.
The hairstyle is not so small, and the shoulder extension line has a layered feeling, which reduces the feeling of small skeleton to a certain extent, so you can get rid of the girlish feeling and enter the feminine taste. However, even a beautiful person like Zhao, some viewers still think that she is a little petty, which is determined by her skeleton and helplessness. In addition, it is difficult to wear ancient costumes in life. Students with small skeletons will need hairstyle, makeup and inner cooperation if they want to move from girlish to feminine.
Theoretically, the banana type should also include the tall ones with no breasts and hips, but because the tall ones generally have wider shoulders, they are treated differently visually, as mentioned above.
The second figure: apple shape
In fact, there are fewer Asian female stars with apple-shaped bodies, because there are more pear-shaped Asian women. If you search for the keyword "apple-shaped female star", there will be many examples that I don't think are apple-shaped. For example, Michelle Chen, I think her waist is just very thick, her crotch is not small, and her lower body is not slender, so the apple-shaped example I use here is actually not considered by many people to be an apple-shaped. Welcome to discuss this.
I think the actress whose skeleton is apple-shaped is her.
As a beauty king, Big S is actually good at covering up her shortcomings, so people may not notice her apple-shaped figure at ordinary times. Apple-shaped body generally has long and slender legs, but it is not commensurate with this. It is short and thick, and it is easy to have no waist line (because there is no waist). As for some people, they will question why the big S has a small bust and is apple-shaped. I don't think any girth and weight stand out, but even if she is so thin, she has no waist, so I will classify her as an apple.
Different from the above-mentioned Apple dressing strategy (strengthening crotch), Big S's dressing strategy directly abandons the outline of upper body curve, but uses loose upper body clothes to create an atmosphere suitable for her temperament, thus revealing slender legs. It seems that she doesn't intend to make herself look "bumpy" but slimmer, so her dress collocation is not the standard course for this answer.
There is little emphasis on the cutting of waistline, but on the crotch. Some students pointed out that this dress looks like a feather duster. In fact, I agree with her to some extent. She can choose a natural style with an open hem, but she chose this fluffy texture, probably to look like a fairy. In fact, if you outline the figure, the one with padded chest and slit is suitable for her. The opening of the skirt is visually open and the chest is slightly exaggerated, so there is an X-ray. Compared with nude color, the big S is more suitable for white, because she is white, and the corresponding Tang Wei is more suitable for nude color, because she is not white. In fact, this figure is very suitable for loose upper body tights or bare legs (revealing slender legs), but in order to emphasize femininity, big S is more of a skirt. From the example of "Big S", we can draw a conclusion that although according to the body shape theory, everyone should be close to the X-shape, in fact, everyone does not necessarily pursue such an effect because of personal aesthetic preferences, but even so, the basic theory is still important. Because you can choose clothes without following the basic theory (that is, it is no problem to make yourself a perfect X-shape as the first priority of dressing), but it is basically difficult to deviate from this theory (such as pear shape, but you have to show your thighs and buttocks). How to outline the figure properly, how to match colors and how to emphasize how to weaken are the basic knowledge that any style needs to know. As for whether you have done everything after you understand it, it is not necessarily so.
The third figure: pear shape
Because Asian women have small breasts, pear shape is very common. As mentioned above, because the buttocks of Asian women are flat, many times, even if the bust is similar to the hip circumference, the front is pear shape. Therefore, it is of great significance to analyze pear shape's dress.
According to the theory we said above, we know that pear shape has two strategies compared with the apple-shaped figure which outlines the curve by emphasizing the crotch. One is to expose the lines of the upper body and weaken the crotch to get a slim X-shaped, A-shaped skirt or a slightly retracted skirt, which can have this effect. The other is to strengthen the lines of the upper body to emphasize the upper body in order to achieve a balance with the big hips.
A pear-shaped foreign representative
In fact, her breasts are not small, but her hips are too big. Her hips are not only wide in hip bones, but also fleshy, which is not particularly suitable for covering the lower body. In addition to the flamboyant personality of Europeans and Americans, she uses collocation strategies to emphasize the upper body to achieve balance. Please refer to my answer about how to dress up girls with big breasts. In fact, Ye Fan's collocation strategy is mainly to brush his face. Many times, she will put on clothes that can't see her figure to show her slender legs, and then pull the hatred value by her face. Ye Fan prefers to be fatter and have a round face, because his face is too sharp to attract the audience. But because of being fat, dressing is basically revealing the thinnest part of yourself-the calf. Her clothes are not particularly instructive, but sometimes they match well. Slightly widen the shoulders to reveal the calves, and the skirt naturally slits to cover the wide hips. This is a slim pear-shaped dressing method that does not emphasize X-shape.
Off-the-shoulder has a dilating effect, exposing the calf. On the basis of waisting, the hem of the coat is slightly opened, and the skirt is retracted, which brings an abrupt feeling caused by the big crotch, but the slit under the coat must match the waistline. This is actually thinner. Her evening dress photo emphasizes the waistline more. How to emphasize how to reduce (weaken) will be discussed in the following principles.
The fourth figure: hourglass shape
Finally, we talked about the hourglass shape, which is the perfect figure. So, does this figure look good at everything? Not necessarily, this figure is very feminine and grand, but relatively speaking, it is not particularly suitable for casual wear. Moreover, large bust often goes hand in hand with high body fat, and covering meat will also be the appeal of these people. Finally, as I said before, even the hourglass shape, leg length, head size, face shape and hairstyle will affect the overall feeling. So these people also need to know the basics of collocation. Suitable style: Compared with banana figure, hourglass figure is often fully developed, which does not mean that banana figure has no female characteristics, but banana figure is more pure for girls, and hourglass figure is more sexy and charming. The goddess embodies that waistline is a woman's lifeline. She can forget proportion and height, but she will never forget to show her waist. If you have the advantage of goddess level, you can dress up a lot at will.
Know Your Body Shape: Conclusion &; advanced
The four body shapes mentioned above are only theoretical basis, but don't they all have to become hourglass shapes? At this point, everyone's pursuit is different. Duke Zhou can rely on a banana-shaped girl to be charming, and big S can ignore her thick waist and take a gentle and feminine route combined with temperament. Ye Fan wears clothes mainly by brushing her face, and the goddess Megan doesn't cover up her short legs too much. All shortcomings are characteristic, and shortcomings are not necessarily bad. So why do we need a theoretical model? Because, as beginners of clothing collocation, we are still very ignorant. We don't know the style, color and style that suits us, and we don't know which style suits us best, whether it is internal or external. We don't have a strong style, so we should start from the basics. Only by learning to add and subtract can we add and subtract our own style on the basis of patterning.
