Dorothy Perkins straight-cut velvet dressSizes 40
The hourglass figure is characterized by a balance between the upper and lower body—the shoulders and hips are typically of a similar width, while the waist is distinctly narrower. The silhouette can be either slender or fuller; the body type is determined by proportions, not size.
