WHICH SHAPE ARE YOU? A Skittle, Goblet, Hourglass, Cornet, Cello, Apple, Column, Bell, Vase, Brick, Lollipop or a Pear...Trinny & Susannah have identified 12 classic women's body shapes. In each case, it is proportion, not size, that matters. So whether you are a skinny, average or larger Skittle, Cello, Apple or Pear, the same principles of dressing will apply. Using real-life women, they analyse in depth each shape and show how to choose the clothes that fit and flatter it. They show the most common dressing mistakes and the three best looks. They select the 10 key garments to make up a capsule wardrobe, and show how these basics can be built upon to vary the look. And they show how to make the most of what you already have: what you can do with an ill-fitting or expensive mistake to bring it back to life. It includes Trinny & Susannah's fabulous 22 city directory of shops, outlets and services and other must-have addresses across the UK.

Susannah Constantine and Trinny Woodall have decided there are 12 body types amongst females. The premise of their book is to pay less attention to one's dress size and pay more attention to one's body shape -- how the parts fit together to make the whole. Each shape has challenges and attributes to emphasize.
Because there are twelve body types to be discussed, each chapter is short. The authors show the biggest horrors (mistakes made by body types) and then offer suggestions. I found the suggestions to be eye-opening and helpful. I would have liked for there to be a book for each body type because just about the time I got excited about the clothing suggested, the authors moved to the next type. I guess I'm a dreamer.
I found the best page in each body type to be "Key Shapes." Dress types, blouse shapes, jacket features, trouser choices are mentioned, as well as jewelry and shoe suggestions. Then there are three types of looks offered for each shape: Casual, Smart and Party. Showing celebrities with each body type was a nice feature; the authors showed them dressing well for type as well as dressing in mistakes.
The authors are gutsy; they showed photos of themselves in disasters and wearing more appropriate garments. One of my favorite features was (at the back of the book), ideas on how to salvage buying disasters so they become useful garments. I couldn't or wouldn't do some of them, but it opened me to the idea that buying disasters could be saved with some thought. 4.5 stars
