If you have an apple-shaped body, then your body more is "top heavy“, meaning you have a wide torso, broad shoulders, and a fuller bust, waist, and upper back. Appleshaped women also tend to have thinner arms, legs, and hips, and tend to gain weight at their waistlines. Tips for apple-shaped women: • Draw attention away from your middle • Emphasize your bust • Show off your legs • Pay attention to the cut of your top • Choose the right material and the right shape • Pair your top with an appropriate jacket or coat

The pear body shape is the most common female body shape. If your hips and backside are wider than your shoulders and typically have a smaller bustline as well, you are the owner of a pear-shaped body. Depending on your general proportions, bustier pears may actually be an hourglass body style. How to dress a pear-shaped body: • You should focus attention on your upper half of your pear-shaped body by choosing slim, fitted tops, button-down shirts and cardigans • Shirts and dresses with embellished necklines naturally draw the eye upward toward the slimmest part of your pear-shaped body • Layering garments can balance your pear-shaped body by adding interest to the top half of your body

• A-line dresses and tops emphasize the upper body while slimming wider hips characteristic of a pearshaped body • Keep the hems of pants, skirts and dresses wide to visually balance a pear-shaped body. Pointy-toed shoes with a wide-hemmed pants will elongate your legs • Structured pants are a great fit, especially those that skim the hips and thighs of a pear-shaped body

If you have an Hourglass Body Shape you will have shoulders and hips that are the same width (in proportion to each other), have a defined waist and tend to enjoy showing off your tiny waist – baggy clothes usually don’t feel too comfortable. You may, or may not, have a large bust and will tend to like clothing and accessories that are feminine, which emphasizes your womanly figure. Style Tips for the Hourglass Body Shape: • Bring attention to your waist with clothing that comes in and defines the waist • Feminine clothing like dresses and skirts will be easier for you to wear • Fabrics that flow will be easiest for you to wear as they will drape nicely over your figure • When shopping for pants, look for a size that fits the widest part of your figure and ignore the gaping waist band. You may need to alter pants you buy in order to get the waist to fit you properly • If you choose a sleeve length that ends the same distance down your arm as the smallest part of your waist, you will make yourself appear slimmer

If you have a Rectangle body shape, it means that your silhouette is fairly straight and down with a slight masculine look, you are similar to an Hourglass but without going in at the waist. A Rectangle body is also a common body figure type for women who age, given birth or gained weight. A good thing about being a rectangle is that you are free to experiment with various textures and details. Tips for a Rectangle body shape: • Different cuts and shapes (wide leg jeans, tulip skirt, kimono top, etc.) • A number of prints, textures and details (ruffles, prints, tiers, studs, beads, etc.) • Lots of different accessories • Bright and eye catching colours • Layering fitted clothes • A push-up bra to lift up your chest

If you have a Strawberry body shape, your shoulders are usually wide, most probably they are wider than your hips. You have a large and wide chest, a lean and small hips and legs. As a Strawberry shaped woman, you have to make sure that you wear clothes that would bring out the right curves and not the flaws in your body. • Skirts: Flared skirts can really enhance the Strawberry shape bodies. They can enhance your hips and make them look proportionate to your top. • Belts: Using some interesting belts can really enhance the hip and draw attention to them, it is important for you to draw attention towards your waist and your hips, as it is generally less defined than the top portion of your body. • Neckline: For strawberry shaped bodies, some of the best options for necklines are sweetheart, square necklines etc. A V neckline would also look really good on the top heavy Strawberry body, enhancing an important aspect of your bodies. • Flared pants: Flared pants would draw attention to the bottom portion of your body and make your legs look longer than they are. • Go for a cinched waist: A top, a skirt or a dress with a cinched waistline (where the dress is tighter around the waist) would work well on Strawberry shaped bodies. • Anything that flares: A dress that is tight fitting on top and flaring at the bottom, flared pants, flared skirts, flared jackets etc. If you have a Strawberry figure, all these would look really good on you.

If you have naturally golden hair, red hair in rich, coppery tones, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a gorgeous warm colouring, no matter what colour eyes you have. To enhance this warmth you should choose colours that have yellow undertones; chocolate, moss, grey-green and bronze should be your go-to colours, as they will really make your eyes and hair stand out whilst giving your skin a healthy glow.

If your hair colour is somewhere by the light blonde to brown range, you are most likely to have a soft colouring. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look amazing in stone, taupe, charcoal, light navy and pewter, so keep an eye out for these tones when you are shopping for clothes. You can also have bursts of colour in your wardrobe with cools greens, soft blues, teals and blue-purples.

With brown, dark brown or black hair, hazel or blue eyes, you will fall into the deep colouring category. The colour of your clothing will enhance your beauty even further, make sure your wardrobe consists of dark colours; black, charcoal, and dark navy, as they will really complement your complexion. Bold colours will contrast nicely with these colours, so choose bright blues, dark and bright greens and teals, dark purples and strong reds to add some colour to your palette.

Generally if you have light blonde to blonde hair, and your eyes are pale blue, grey or light green, you will naturally have light colouring. With such a light and delicate look, light colours and pastel shades will suit you well and complement your perfectly porcelain complexion. If you want to add a few key colours to your wardrobe that you can always rely on, choose stone, taupe, cocoa and pewter.

To determine your face shape, you can pull your hair back in a headband or ponytail and analyse what you see in the mirror. I have a quiz that you are able to take on the next page with many different questions and types of face shapes!

BRUNETTE Dark hair goes well with bright make up and makes your complexion look fresh. An orange lip is unexpected and can bring out the chocolatebrown tones. Brunettes suit a bold brow, as they create a frame for the rest of your face.

BLONDE It can be easy to overdose on colour when you’re blonde, but adding some light blush and bronzer can warm up your face and ensure that you don’t look washed out. Draw attention to your eyes using dark, neutral toned eye shadows and play around with light lip colours.

RED Neutral shades will not compete with your crimson, try layering a deep-purple eyeliner with some brown eye shadows for a kick of colour. Try a nude lip but don’t forget your lip liner, always keep your lip shape strong.

BLACK Dark-haired women should mostly stick to warm colours, this avoids hard lines and stereotypical styling. However, black-haired women look very appealing wearing lipstick in the darkest or brightest colours. Your make up should either emphasise the mouth or the eyes, black mascara and eye shadow work best to draw attention to your eyes, red and berry coloured lipstick can also do the same for the lips.

Fashion icon, blogger and Socialite Olivia Palermo is the ultimate style crush! She looks amazing whether she's sitting front row at Fashion Week or walking around New York City in her trainers, hair in a ponytail with her husband Johannes Huebl (and their dog Mr Butler). Olivia isn’t afraid to experiment with different looks, day or night. She likes clean cut shirts and trousers, jumpers and jeans, her hair is long and styled with a curl and her outfits are unique, yet elegant. She has a clear gift for accessorising and she seems both pleased and patient as her photo is taken. In my opinion I think Olivia would have a Rectangle body shape, as she is slim and slender. I have created two looks that I think Olivia would wear, a day look and an evening outfit:

I think Aimee would have an hourglass body shape, as she has curves and a waist. I have created two looks that I think she would wear below:

Minimalist trend evolves in shapes with an importance on structure. A modern aesthetic along with a silent and sensual mood is created throughout. Delicate white and pale hues in light materials, providing the platform for a sleek, sophisticated look in softly operated forms. I am inspired by the simplicity and the neutral colours that are used in this trend, so my end photo-shoot is mostly going to be focussed on it.

CHALKY WHITES ARE KEY soft neutrals are timeless, adding warmth to looks Loose fit cuts in plain cotton and silk provide a relaxed sophisticated look

BEACHCOMBER S/S 17 theme is centred on a modern feminine traveller on a worldly adventure. A gentle, urban theme combines with an eclectic feeling to introduce a relaxed mode of dressing. Softened, layers via natural fibres of linen, silk and cotton. KEY SHADES: Pale khaki, tan, dusted blue, yellow and soft pink. PRINTS: Traditional Berber Stripes, indigo checks, antiqued landscapes, hand drawn and electric sensibility providing a well-loved, lived-in vibe. MATERIALS: Hand crafted beading, drawcord necklines, fringe, pieced and patched materials.

THE FUTURIST is a new creative, retro style for modern women. Structured silhouettes and exaggerated volume accentuates the shoulders and placed renewed focus on the waist and hips. Tailoring and cut-outs emphasise a strong female form. KEY SHADES: Vibrant purple, bronze, orange, brown and neutral shades. MATERIAL/DETAILS: Sheers, metallic, quilted leather, cut-outs, shoulder pads, wood and cotton drill.

I have chosen an all white theme for my photo shoot. I am going to keep a clean, simple look throughout. My model is going to have natural make up and slick hair, as seen in the images below.

AGE: 21 LOCATION: SoHo, New York City INTERESTS: Art, fashion, photography, styling, traveling, interior design, architecture STYLE: Effortless, chic and clean OCCUPATION: Artist

For my photo shoot I am sticking to an all white, minimal theme. The shoot will be based in Liverpool Community College Arts Centre in the photography room at 2pm on the 6th January 2017. I will be using a plain white background and my model will be dressed in neutral clothing. Her hair and makeup will be natural and sleek, I am not going to be using any eye makeup (I may add a bright lip though!) and her hair will be in a low pony tail. I will be taking close up and full body shots so I have a variety of different images to choose from at the end. I am going to be using lighting so my images look bright and clear but I do not think I will use any props as I want my shoot to look as simplistic as possible.

My magazine will be mostly related to high fashion magazines. I think Vogue is the one that stands out to me the most, I like how they style and photograph their shoots. Even though they have not done the exact theme I will be doing, I have took inspiration from the magazine front covers for my final shoot. Below I have included my favourite, minimal covers by Vogue:

Once I had photographed my images, I uploaded them to Photoshop and then started the editing process. I started off by cropping my photographs down to the correct scale that I wanted, I played around with the tools including contrast, brightness and saturation etc. to get the look I desired. I added some backgrounds on two of my images, to do that I had to select around the part of my photograph that I did not want then cut it. I uploaded different marble backgrounds to my shots to give them a edgy, cool effect!

1. What future trend have you chosen for your final photoshoot? For my final photo shoot I chose a minimal and simplistic look. I think I have promoted this well throughout my magazine and it clearly shows what type of magazine it is, and what style I am going for, for the shoot. I kept my models hair, make up and clothes plain and added a denim jacket to make it look edgy. I shot with a plain white background and then photo shopped a marble one once I was editing my images. 2. Who is your target consumer group? I would say a ‘early adopter’ is my target consumer group, or people in their 20’s. I think my magazine is young, cool and chic with it’s simplistic feel. An early adopter isn’t afraid to mix styles and also follows trends! 3. What magazine have you chosen and why? Vogue has inspired me for my magazine, I always love how they style and capture their photographs. Vogue stands out a lot to me, even though they have not got the exact ‘theme’ I done, I have took some inspiration from their magazine covers in the past. 4. What planning and preparation did you do? I started off researching different styles of photo shoots on Pinterest, I put together a range of different mood boards for clothes, hair, make up and location so I could refer back to them whilst doing my shoot. I created a call sheet and a itinerary so everything went to plan on the day. 5. How successful was the delivery of your shoot? My overall shoot went exactly how I wanted it to, my research and planning helped me throughout to create a image in my head on how I wanted it to look. Me and my model worked well in a team and was cooperative with one another. I would not do anything differently!
