Get Your Corporate Look Right
Nisha Samson | Feb 24, 2007
Bipasha Basu gave the term 'corporate chic' a new meaning in her the movie Corporate. But for all you working women out there, what worked for Bips may not necessarily work for you, unless you've got the curves to match. To make sure you get your corporate look right, check out these guidelines and sketches by Fashion Designer Anita Dongre.
Body Basics - Know Your Style
The Apple
Your body type is top heavy. You have a full bust and upper back and slim hips.
On the downside, however, you may have a big belly as you store fat in that region and have a flat back-side.
You have a tendency to gain weight above the waist.
Actors Elizabeth Hurley and Catherine Zeta-Jones fall into this body type. So, all you apples are in glittering company, quite literally.
When shopping for your wardrobe, stick to tops with smooth, soft textures.
Tunic tops should be worn with shallow V necklines in plain, dull and dark fabrics. Clingy fabrics, chiffons, georgettes and Lycra are a strict no-no.
Wear bottoms with prints or patterns in light and bright colours. They help your hips look fuller than they really are.
Avoid tight skirts and pants completely and stay away from wide belts like the plague.
