Style Guide
Pear shaped:
Taapsee Pannu
' A well-fitted, structured dress works, but keep the length below the knee if you are on the heavier side. A tube works as it shows off your collarbone.
' Opt for playful colours. White with some metallic silver would be ideal.
' Pair it with black gladiator heels, if you are 5'4'' or taller.
' Choose accessories like arm bracelets or wear a watch and stack it up with bracelets.
' If you are wearing a tube dress, wear a choker with it.
Petite:
Alia Bhatt
' The below-the-knee-length is good for an elegant chic look. Opt for a trail, to add flow.
' Going for a body-hugging, sequined dress with a deep neck will make you look taller.
' A cinched waistline, defined shoulders and well-fitted sleeves will ensure the look doesn't seem inexpensive.
' Pastels look good. Darker shades and black work well if you are light complexioned.
' If you are about 5' tall, pair the dress with high heels. Opt for basic earrings like studs.

Curvy:
Malaika Arora
' Go for a mid-thigh length dress if you have toned legs. It will accentuate your curves and make you look tall.
' Nudes, silver and golds work well for this body type. Multicoloured stripes also work as long as they don't clash.
' Malaika also does a lot of bold cuts. So, make sure your dress is figure-hugging. Going backless is a great option. V-necks work perfectly for this look.
' Pair your dress with sleek nude pumps. Opt for brave make-up, which isn't too loud.
' Tie your hair up, preferably in a high pony.
