Wear a Little Pink Dress.
The little black dress?
A classic, of course. But there's no rule that says you can't veer into a pretty
bright color occasionally.
Hot pink makes for a gorgeous little black
dress substitute. Just keep details to a minimum (brights look best in minimal
shapes) and go easy on the accessories to let the dress take center
stage.
Easy Way to Look Taller-Choose one strong vertical element. An unbuttoned jacket or vest can give you that strong vertical line that keeps the eye moving up and down, rather than across. The sheath dress is the perfect dress silhouette to create a strong vertical line. Slim pants worn with a tunic top, a long scarf wrapped around your neck with ends left dangling and layers of long necklaces all create a strong vertical presence as well. Even going with vertical seaming or prints can add to the eye traveling up and down rather than across.Image Source- InternetTeam Pour Femme

How to Dress an Apple-Shaped Figure -Create the illusion of a waist. Opt for visual illusion of a waist. You can do this either by choosing a style with a set-in waist, by adding a belt or looking for some sort of styling element -- such as beading or tucks at the waistline -- to create more of an hourglass look and make the waist look smaller. Melissa McCarthy's black banding at the waistline (see photo) is a great example of how to make this visual element work for apple-shaped figures.

Flatter Your Figure:The most important feature of your new dress is how well it flatters you.Remember that darker colors and simple cuts (a sheath, an A-line) are the most flattering.
Show off your best feature. If you have gorgeous eyes, then play them up with beautiful makeup, off-the-face hair and jeweled earrings in a complimentary shade.
Not sure what your best asset is? Ask a friend or significant other. Or go to a store that sells special occasion dresses and enlist the salesperson's help.

Special Occasion DressesWhich dress is best for your body type including special occasion, formal and prom styles.Decide on Formality:Usually the event invitation will clue you into the formality of the event, whether it's casual or black tie. But sometimes even that will cause confusion (short dress or long?)
In general, the later in the day the event (after 6 p.m.), the dressier. Long dresses are usually reserved only for formal (black tie) occasions.
While some fabrics are year-round -- silk, brocade, organza, jersey -- fabrics like velvet and gold spangles are best reserved for winter holidays.

Think Fit and Flare
One of the classic recommendations for the bottom-heavy figure is the full skirt. It's still a great option, especially for dresses. How to make the full skirt work:
-Go for a fit and flare silhouette. Draw attention to the waist with a belt, gathers, band or other feature. The skirt should flare out from the fitted waist.
-Take the fit and flare silhouette one step further by opting for a strapless dress. You'll get the benefit of showing off your shoulders, while concealing your hips. Also, the strong line of bare shoulders helps balance a wider bottom half.

Balance Figure with Color, Fitted Pieces.You can wear a fitted suit, even with a slim skirt, if you are bottom heavy. Just remember:-Keep the line long by using all one color with slim-cut pieces. It elongates and slims the figure.
-Choose fitted jackets that end well above your widest point.
-Wear a top or jacket with structured shoulders, puffy sleeves, etc. to balance out your larger bottom half.
-Rely on a form-fitting, but never tight, skirt in a non-clingy fabric.

Never wear anything that hits you at your widest point.Garments that "end" at your widest body part cause that body part to visually widen. In short: you look fatter. And we don't want that.Image Source- InternetTeam Pour Femme
Horizontal StripesWhy you should wear horizontal stripes: Horizontal stripes get a bad rap for making women look shorter and broader, but when done the right way horizontal stripes can be extremely flattering and balance out body flaws. What you don't want to do with horizontal stripes is wear them on your largest body part: broad shoulders with a horizontally striped top will just make you look broader.
