Love the advice thank you.
Like apple shape dress
I’m an Apple. I would look 12 mo pregnant in a dress like that! Apple is all weight in the belly and narrow to zero hips. Bustling is usually smaller than belly.
Marnel is not an apple shape. She is a pear shape. She looks beautiful
This video does a great job at degrading women's bodies for looking a certain way. WTF 🤦♀️
Why was the model with an hour glass shape put in an evening gown and not a bridal gown?
The positives of an apple shape include that she is a super woman. She has large breasts and her body naturally protects her important organs such as where babies grow and internal organs are. We need to celebrate the positives of all shapes.
Came to this video for help left irritated. All bodies are ‘ideal’ bodies… what a mess.
I don’t like that you said “we have beautiful hour glass shape & apple and triangle shape”
You people who look like the rest of us thank you .
Can anyone provide a link or the name of the second gown designer I love it and can’t find it! Thank you
The 3rd dress didn’t suit the model.
Ouch… this was horribly done. “We have a beautiful hourglass shape… then a triangle and apple shape.” 🙄 Triangle and apple shaped women are gorgeous. Don’t project your insecurities onto other women!
Well, I wanted to see a human in the pear shape but nope. Waste of time.
Love your outfit 🥰
I really hate how you said "here we have the beautiful hour glass shape" but with the other shapes you just said "here we have the apple shape" and same with the other shape, and continued to use beautiful only when talking about hour glass shape. All body shapes are beautiful not just the hour glass shape!!!
The 2nd dress has pockets! 😍
What about a bigger bust?
The bias towards the hourglass was very unprofessional and borderline offensive. However I was glad to see healthy models, and i appreciate your insight. All bodies are beautiful.
Please Please stop preferring one body shape over another. All shapes are beautiful.. Your presenters language called the hourglass beautiful and ideal more than once.. but not the other shapes. This whole video could of been done with so much more positivity and equality. I am an apple and presentations like this are why I and so many other women struggle our whole lives to accept our bodies, let alone think they are beautiful. Please try to do better.
I've got broad shoulders, rectangle body shape, apple tummy
Good sharing. Inspired me . TQ
Great video and explanation of the shapes
I have between an apple / rectangle body. And I would never think to wear fitted clothing
Huh…never realized that the shape doesn't take into account the side and back.
Thank you, so kind
Not sure why I’m here….I ain’t even dating anyone smh
Thank you for posting this video and clearly explaining the body types and styles. I'm a triangle body shape and it's so hard to know what would be flattering on me, considering most models and dresses seem to be geared towards hourglass body shapes. So helpful!!
Thanks doe for the illustration. Very helpful
Too bad the inverted triangle is not discussed… 🤷🏻♀️
If I wasn’t hour glass shaped I’d feel self conscious after watching this 🙁
Absolutely everybody type is ideal and beautiful!
Beautiful 🥰
There is no ideal body shape. We need to stop this.
What shape is no curves? Skinny, slender & long. What style dress would be best?
Thank you so much fort this. I am apple shape and LOVE the two piece the girl who was apple shape was put into. What is this dress/two piece please? x
The dresses are beautiful and it's always a great thing to be fitted for your dress so you will look your best.
The second lady looks nice in her regular clothes, and great in her wedding gown. Apple-shaped women definitely have a challenge finding flattering clothes if they gain excess weight (which she has not).
I don't what shape. I am? I tend to choose an Aline style. Big beautiful skirt sleeves since I have big arms. So I am big on top large in tummy area and hope. Very skinny legs lol
The mermaid is not good for pear shape????
The second dress is amazingly done😍 I love the designer👍
Thank you for demonstrating how to style for muscular arms and shoulders. Most style guides don't include advice for women with athletic builds, offering only advice on complimenting the hips and bust of a triangle shape. The selection for each model was very flattering and the reasoning behind each pick was easy to understand. I also appreciate seeing these tips demonstrated on models that look like actual brides with real fitting challenges instead of universally slender professional clothes-wearers.
Wait?! You mean, explaining why it's working and using models over size 2?!
What concept?!
Please! Do a reverse series. Like, use a dress and explain what it would do to a body.
Thank you this was very helpful.
This is extremely helpful! Janita's opinions are indeed very different to the usual recommendations for body types. I'd love to hear what she would say to very tall and very petite girls. I'm 182 cm with a relatively short torso and crazy long legs. I'm really having a hard time finding dresses that look good on me.
