One of the most frequently asked questions is regarding body type.
Can I wear a cheongsam? Are my hips too wide? Am I too fat?
Have you ever look up style guide that teaches you to dress for your body type only end up frustrated at categorizing yourself as either 1 of 2 fruits ( apple or pear ), gender reversal ( boy ), or a time-keeper ( hourglass ).
These over generalized categories really do nothing but to deflate self esteem.
We have therefore put together a list of suggestion of cheongsam style for 12 different body types borrowed from Trinny & Susannah of BBC's What Not To Wear. To simplify things, we have divided the dozen types into 4 self explanatory sub groups as follows:
Bottom Heavy Types
Middle Heavy Types
Top Heavy Types
The Hourglass Variation Types
