Floral Peplum Top

We’ve already looked at peplums as a trend, along with some key does and don’ts for wearing them. This style is possibly the most versatile way to incorporate a peplum in the wardrobe. While you could style a peplum top with various bottoms, wearing it with a pencil skirt would work cleverly to camouflage the appearance of a slight stomach bulge (if it exists, that is). You wouldn’t have to hold your stomach in, as a peplum would sit just over the top of your high-waisted skirt. Peplum tops is a figure flattering alternative to the standard fitted top and bang on trend for summer wear. Even better in formal occasions, wear your peplum with trousers. This is more flattering on short legs, and even more importantly—immediately modernize a look which, for all this hour glass glory, can look a bit retro. Peplum became the hottest and most wearable on spring and winter. It was first introduced by Dior in 1947. Then this shape was forgotten for a couple of decades and now we are witnessing the return of this strucured and feminine detail. What body types would a peplum top benefit the most?

Peplums are here to celebrate femininity accentuating utterly womanly shape of an hourglass. Peplums are believed to be flattering to any body type if worn right. Both straight and curvy lines can benefit from wearing peplums by letting them either create the illusion of shape, balance out the proportions, or enhance the curves that are already there.
Speaking in the terminology of my post on Somatype where I gave an overview of 3 major body types – ectomoprh, mesomoprh and endomorph, I would say that peplums can be easily incorporated into the wadrobe of a mesomorph and an ectomorph, while already voluptuous shapes of an endomoprh definitely do not need extra bulk and exaggeration.
If you have a little tummy peplums that sit just above the waist at the narrowest part of your torso will perfectly hide any hint that it exists
If your body shape is straight with a barely defined waist make sure the peplum detail on your top sits right where the waist is, creating this much wanted contrast between your hips and waistline. In case of the narrow shoulders look for the designs with padded shoulders or puffed sleeves to add to the ideal shoulder-waist-hips proportion
