Style advice for the Dagny Dress
The Dagny Dress for V-types
They have fairly broad shoulders and are busty; however, the lower body is more tapered. The goal for your body shape is to create the illusion that your shoulders are more gently sloped. So, you can make your silhouette more proportional by drawing attention away from the shoulders and deflecting it to the lower body.
The straight dress cut is flattering on your body shape. Pair the dress with a dark, plain top that doesn’t highlight your upper body at all. A top or jumper with raglan sleeves would be a nice choice. Make the dress in fabric with a geometric or graphic design, like checks or houndstooth and go for a stiff fabric with enough weight to it.
The Dagny Dress for H-types
H-types have more or less equally wide shoulders and hips. The only thing missing is a clear waist. You've got two options – conceal your waist or try and create one. The Dagny Dress has gone for option 1 and conceals the waist.
Go for fabric with geometric patterns or stripes, or pick a plain fabric in a neutral colour.
The Dagny Dress for O-types
The straight dress cut leads vertical lines across your body, making your rounder figure look longer. The corduroy’s vertical stripes reinforce that effect further.
Make the Dagny Dress in a dark colour and pair it with a top in a lighter or brighter colour. This way, you’ll draw attention upwards.
Most apple types have slender legs and ankles. That makes the Dagny Dress ideal, given that it stops at knee height.
The Dagny Dress for X- and 8-types
X- and 8 types have figures that are naturally well-balanced. The shoulders and hips are more or less the same widths and there is a clear waistline. For that reason, opt for clothes that follow your body's natural curves, preserve the harmony of your proportions, and highlight your waist as much as possible.
The cut of the dress doesn’t hug your natural curves hides the waist, which doesn’t really flatter your figure.
Garments that do look great on your body shape include: the Carole Dress, the Emilia Dress, the Izzy Dress, the Faye Dress, the Joanne Dress, the Trish Dress, the Wallys Blouse, the Jutta Skirt, the Dixie Skirt, the Kamille Dress, the Vienna Dress, the Taylor Dress, the Julia Kimono, etc.
The Dagny Dress for I-types
Your body shape is incredibly slender, is straight as an arrow and lacks a waist. Anything that gives your body a little more shape is a plus! For I-types then, it's all about creating curves and breaking up those vertical lines. The straight cut of the Dagny Dress doesn’t start out with much volume to its cut, but if you pair it right, you can still give your outfit a stunning look.
Make the dress in a bold or light colour. Avoid overly dark colours want because they create a lengthening effect, which also narrows your figure. Pair the dress with a romantic blouse that has a standing collar, ruffles, bishop sleeves, etc. For example, the Victoria Blouse or the Holly Dress shortened into a blouse.
The Dagny Dress for A-types
Your body shape is characterised by a fuller lower body with a proportionately narrower upper body. To even out your figure’s proportions, the aim is to draw attention to the upper body and away from the lower. Definitely be sure to accentuate your waist.
The straight cut doesn’t work quite as well on your figure because it doesn’t emphasise your waist at all. Pair the dress with an eye-catching top, for example, a chunky-knit jumper in a light colour or a blouse with lots of details, such as the Victoria Top. The goal is to draw as much attention to the upper body as possible, creating the illusion of length there. A t-shirt with horizontal stripes also pairs nicely with the Dagny Dress.
Is your heart set on looking stunning in this dress? Well, then you'll need to draw attention to the top of your body. Make sure you’re wearing plenty of accessories, a striking necklace or earrings for example. Keep things plain around the bottom of your silhouette. For instance, don't wear shoes that are too showy.
