The best body shape yet!,
By
This review is from: The Body Shape Bible: Forget Your Size Discover Your Shape Transform Yourself (Hardcover)
I've bought a few books about dressing for your body shape but this one is definitely the best one. Their advice is spot on and definitely changed the way I view my body. Most body shape books break down body types to about 6 at best but this book goes further with not only a lot more body shapes and but also describes traits like leg proportion, neck length and bottom size.
It has changed the way I shop. I now walk straight passed all the gorgeous but wrong for me clothes - no matter how fab! I look for shape first, fabric and colour next. My "what was I thinking" shopping mistakes have disappeared and I'm now feeling a lot better about my body. Not bad for one book!

Very informative book and great fun!,
By Reader (Lincolnshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Body Shape Bible: Forget Your Size Discover Your Shape Transform Yourself (Hardcover)
I have been a fan of T&S for many years - I like their advice which I feel is down to earth and applicable to the majority of woman. This book takes their advice from previous books and distills it into 12 body types. Whilst it is true that once you find out your type you don't need the rest of the book, I still found it great fun and very informative. For example, the book has been passed round my friends and office colleagues and all of them have, fairly easily, identified their body type. It is also useful reading about the other types as there are different hints that are also applicable to your own. They finish each chapter with celebrity pictures of each type showing both a good outfit and a bad one - this I found instructive and interesting as they analyse exactly why it is good and bad for that type. The wardrobe suggestions for my type (hourglass)were also spot on - having read some of their advice in the past I have a much better idea of what suits me. The only trouble is that I now need to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe!

It depends on how many people will take advantage of the book!,

This review is from: The Body Shape Bible: Forget Your Size Discover Your Shape Transform Yourself (Hardcover)
The book is OK, although I agree with one of the reviews, which said that it took like 20' for the reader to get through the whole book. As for me, I am still hesitating whether I am a skittle or a vase, or a hybrid of both. I did like though, all the advice that appears for both body types, and it was good to notice that I was unconsciously doing some things (like wearing chunky heels), while I had not realized the importance of a good haircut in order to give some balance to a skittle silouette. I will share the book with friends and sisters, whom I believe will appreciate all the advice that appears for several body types.
