You have an ultra-feminine hourglass figure (rounded on your top and bottom half, with a slim waist). The only downside is that hourglass figures aren't very muscular as a rule, so you need to make sure you flatter your arms, thighs and bum in particular.

Your assets: you have an incredibly sexy shape, so don't try to slim it down in anything too short or too tight.

Faux pas to avoid: don't hide your figure by wearing oversized clothing which will make your curves disappear. If you've got 'em, flaunt 'em!

Key styles: shapes that are fitted but not tight (forget about stretchy fabrics, especially jersey which will hang off you in a rather unstylish way!). And go for nipped-in waists and V-necks to emphasise your bust.

Extra advice: heels are essential with a this season's knee-length dresses.

We love:
Kookaï square-neck printed cotton dress, around £50
