Does this look work for your body?
👗
Slim / Lean
Best fit
The ruched waist still reads clearly on a slim frame since there's no excess fabric fighting the gather — true to size in this fit.

Petite
Works well
Take the hem up 2–3 inches to mid-calf rather than full midi length, and keep the heel height shown — a shortened hem with an unbroken leg line to the shoe is what extends height.

👗
Curvy / Plus
Works well
Size up one size from your usual measurement chart so the waist ruching has slack to gather rather than stretch flat — a tailor can take in the bust seam if needed without touching the waist shaping.

Tall / Athletic
Best fit
Wear at true midi length or even ankle-grazing — your proportions won't shorten the line. Add the layered necklace to keep the high neckline from reading flat at the collarbone.

Does this look work for your skin tone?
✨
Wheatish / Medium / Olive
Best fit
Cool navy against warm-neutral undertones creates visible colour-temperature contrast rather than blending flat — keep the lip as deep as shown, a wine-berry shade, not a bright red.

Fair / Light
Best fit
This much cool navy can read flat against fair skin with no warmth underneath — push bronzer one shade warmer and switch to gold jewellery so it reflects warm light back onto the face.

Deep / Rich
Works well
Deep navy against deep skin creates a saturated colour-block effect that photographs strongly outdoors — go bolder with an oxblood or plum lip if you want, it will hold against this much navy.
