Body Shapes

Think of yourself as an artist every day.  You are painting, sculpting, and composing your unique canvas, your body, with the choices you make to cloth it.  One of the basic elements of art education is balance.  Balance is critical to the end masterpiece.  There are hundreds of scientific studies indicating that the human eye is attracted to balance, symmetry and harmony.  Our canvases come in a variety of shapes and sizes.  Holobi identifies the basic shapes as Diamond, Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire. 
 
Each canvas brings a unique and beautiful opportunity for balance.  A  Diamond body should focus attention on her small waist. Belts are a great medium for drawing attention to the waist.  Rubies need to remember to balance their bountiful shoulders and/or chest by adding visual interest to their lower half.  Bottoms in a tinted color with extra detailing are a good way to achieve this balance.  Emeralds need to explore sculpting out a waist.  Tops and jackets with princess seaming are good for sculpting tools.  Sapphires need to play with color and volume on their top half to give balance to their extra feminine hips and derriere.  Shoulder detailing and more vibrant colors on top help them achieve balance.  Don’t be afraid to play with colors and shapes.  We are blank canvases but can be walking masterpieces.
