Thanks for your comment Patricia. Reese is considered a slim apple shape. Like I mentioned in the video she has really figured out how to dress her shape to make her waist appear more defined and give the illusion that she is less of an apple body type. This is what great styling can do! I also wanted to debunk the myth that all apple shapes are "plus" sizes. The styling tips I share are helpful for all size apple shapes. Hope that makes sense.

I understand, that there are slim apple body type people (and I am one of them), but I just see defined waist and hips on Reese, so for me she looks slightly like hourglass even in bodycon dresses. I (and I believe many other true slim apple body shaped women too) look like a sousage in bodycon dresses 😂

Apple shape is the most common woman’s shape and the most ignored in fashion. I’d like to see a stylist dress, an actual apple shaped person with a clothing hall from some reputable place. Reese Witherspoon is extremely thin and I’m struggling to figure out where she is showing anything I’m an apple shape. Period.

Hi Rita, I'm a stylist and I have dressed hundreds of women over the last 16 years including many apple shapes. Tailoring is key for many body types including apples. As I said in the video, apples can be any size, it's about the shape of the body. Reese is considered a slim apple. This isn't my opinion, it's how she is known by industry standards. I used her as an example not only because she knows how to style her shape but to debunk the myth that all apples are plus sizes. Also, the most common shape is the rectangle, making up 46% of women. Rectangles can also be plus-size women. Hope that helps clarify things.

in what world is Kate Winslet an apple shape? sorry no, she's a vase or soft hourglass... you can see all her curves and small waist. Reese is arguably not an apple either... Both of these women clearly have defined waists. Apples don't have defined waists.... I find this video really confusing.
@EricaBallStyle
@EricaBallStyle Жыл бұрын
Hi Kelly, thanks for you're comment and I'm sorry this is confusing. Some argue Kate is more of an hourglass while others say she's an apple. She may be more in the middle and may fluctuate. An apple's widest area is their bust, not their waist. But they do have a wide waist, more narrow hips, and a flatter bottom. There are many styling tricks you can do to create the appearance of a defined waist like in the red carpet photo of Kate. Reese is considered a slim apple by industry standards (it's not just my opinion). I wanted to use her as an example of an apple that really knows how to style her shape by using some of the styling tricks I explained to create the appearance of a defined waist. Hope that helps make it clearer.

@@kellyturrisi3813 I totally appreciate your question Kelly and I know it can totally be confusing! I think one of the easiest ways to understand body shapes is to first know that while some shapes do tend to have smaller (rectangle) or larger (apple) sizes, every shape can, in theory, have size 0's or size 20's. The key is the proportions. So if you take a size 20 and her bust and hips are basically the same measurements but her waist is only slightly more narrow (by 25% or less) she is considered a rectangle, not an apple even though she is a plus size. Now if there is a size 0 and she has a bust size of 34D and her waist is wider than her hips plus she has a flat bottom, she is considered more of an apple shape. It's about the proportion of the bust/shoulders to waist to hips.

@@EricaBallStyle really it's fascinating! So theoretically you can change shape with weightgain/weightloss? Some people say no you can't... but it makes sense that you might lean more into a different shape with more or less weight on you. When considering your shape, you would need to take into account your shoulder width too right? not just bust/waist/hip? I get torn on if I'm pear or hourglass... My bust is 35, waist is 27, hips are 38. My shoulder width though is 37. I don't usually consider myself a pear because I didn't think my shoulders were narrow enough for that and i'm busty.
@EricaBallStyle
@EricaBallStyle Жыл бұрын
@@kellyturrisi3813 These are such great questions Kelly! A lot of people will argue you're shape doesn't change. I think part of that has to do with your inherent bone structure. Like if someone has broad shoulders and narrow hips they are most likely an inverted triangle, but that would be their bone structure that defines the width of their shoulders and hips, and that doesn't change. For me, in my early 20's I was a rectangle. I had zero curves. As I got older though, I'm definitely more of a pear and have a full bottom. Yes, you want to also take in the width of your shoulders as well. Bust size can really vary across the different types. Pears can have a fuller bust although most tend to be smaller. As long as their hip measurements are wider than the bust, even if it's just slightly larger like yours, they are considered a pear. As a pear, I tend to wear a smaller size on top and one size larger on the bottom. That's another way you can tell if that is you as well. 😊

Would you say your shoulders-to-bust to waist-to-hip ratio is fairly equal in measurement? If yes, you may be more of a rectangle than an apple shape and that may be why trying to dress like an apple doesn't work for you. Just like there are slim apples, there are plus-size rectangles and everything in between.

Thanks Maraya! When you are looking for trousers for an apple shape, look for ones made of fabric that has some structure and isn't too thin or flowy. Avoid pleats and instead opt for a pant that has a flat front and where the pockets also lay flat. A style that is more tailored like a slim leg or slim straight leg can work great. Avoid a high waist as that can create the appearance of a short torso. Hope that helps!

Thanks for your feedback Cheryl. In general, as an apple shape, you want to avoid any excess fabric on the hip and waist area like pleats, pockets that don't lay flat, and paperbag waists as they give the illusion of added weight to those areas. You also want to break up your top and bottom halves by not wearing the same colors or print. Also think about defining your waist. If your torso is short, avoid high-waisted pants and jeans. A more mid-rise option will give the illusion of a longer torso. Let me know if you have any specific questions I can answer.

Great question! Fitted clothes shouldn't be tight. Fitted clothes are more tailored to the body and have more structure to the fabric so they don't "hug" any part of the body. Think of fabrics like heavy cotton, leather, tweed, and wool. They are heavier weight and have more structure to them. Avoid thin fabrics like lycra and spandex which will show everything. Let me know if this makes sense or if I can clarify it anymore.

Reese's stylist does a great job dressing her and her shape. It all comes down to the measurements of the body regarding someone's shape. She knows how to define her waist and thus give the appearance of an hourglass shape.

Are there some styles that are universally flattering?

That's a great question Kathy! In general, items that are tailored to the body (not tight), stream-lined silhouettes, and classic styles that are more simple designs tend to be more universally flattering.

Reese Witherspoon is not an apple shape?!?!

She's actually considered a slim apple. Apple shapes can be smaller sizes. It's about their measurements, not their dress size. An apple shape has a similar bust and waist measurement but with narrow hips.

Dresses are good Christine. Just think about having a defined waist and showing your arms and legs!

My mom and sister are apple shape. Me on the other hand, is still a mystery. I'm flat chested with defined waste. So maybe a pear perhaps? Have you done a video for the Itty bitty titty community by chance?

Hi Angela, have you watched the 5 body shape video where I break down each body type? That may help you determine your shape: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYWoZI2nlK2Lb7c

If your bottom half is wider and curvy than you are most likely a pear. But if your hips are also narrow and more in line with your top half, then chances are you're a rectangle. In the next few weeks, look for videos for how to style each of those body types.

@@EricaBallStyle I see where I'm considered to be a rectangle. My shoulders and hips align well, and my narrow waist is there but little bit Suttle. Though I've noticed when I do gain weight, it's in my midsection, while my arms and legs don't show change. Perhaps I'm a skinny apple? lol but yeah I'm looking forward to more of your videos! Thank you for your response! I'll click your link to the 5 body types to!

Not a good comparison. Reese isn't an apple shape and she is not as heavy. Unfair comparison.
