How To Wear A Crop Top For Any Body Shape

Angela Stone • Apr 02, 2015

Despite what a lot of people say, it doesn’t matter what shape or size you are, the crop top can work on all body types!

Some people think only younger, thinner girls can pull off this style and i’m telling you now that it is not true! It’s all about learning your body shape , and understanding what to wear with a crop top so it flatters your shape. I feel that as long as you know what fabrics, prints and colours compliment your shape, you can pull off any look that you want.

Here are some easy to wear styles for any age, shape or size:

Tie Waist

This style is perfect for hour glass or inverted triangle figures, the flare in the pants gives more shape and draws your eye down. If you don’t feel comfortable showing your stomach, you can tie the top so it is sitting just on top of the pants.

Lace

Lace is the most feminine fabric and I personally love it! Paired here with a tulle midi skirt, this outfit is perfect for pear or apple body shapes as it draws attention to your waist and hides your lower body. Again, if you don’t feel comfortable showing any skin, try wearing a nude slip or find a crop top that sits just on top of your skirt.

Flirty

This look is perfect for the weekend with the perfect balance of flowy fabrics. This style is great for rectangles, or hour glass figures. My top tip: make sure you balance out the fit of two floaty pieces, one should be more fitted than the other; see how the skirt is fitting around her waist and then flares out, this stops from adding to her figure, and instead accentuates her figure.

Fitted

This style is great for any shape that has a great upper body, especially pears as they can team this fitted crop with a fuller midi skirt or pair of pants. 2015 trend update: matching tops and bottoms, they can look so good when done right!

Casual

Want a more casual approach to wearing a crop? Try a cotton singlet crop with a draped skirt. These styles are everywhere at the moment so you can pick them up quite cheap and invest in a beautiful skirt from Witchery or Country Road.

Sweater

This is perfect for the cooler months approaching us soon. Just because its colder, doesn’t mean you can’t still dress stylish! You can team this style with a full skirt or pair of pants so your still warm but keeping on trend!

Floral

Last but not least, the Angela Stone Floral Crop !Perfectly teamed with a full midi skirt , this has been designed to suit all body shapes and the colours pick up on all colour seasons.

I hope you have enjoyed learning about how to style crop tops for you.

Happy Easter and enjoy the long weekend!

Love Ange xx

May Newsletter 2023 Hi friends! Is your winter wardrobe in check? One thing people often forget to pay attention to is accessories, but this is such a fun way of dressing for the colder weather. These are the Winter Accessory Trends you should be aware of: Big scarves are in – and I mean big! Wrap it around your neck a bunch of times, or wear it like a shawl for a chic look. You’ll be cosier than ever! If you already have an oversized handbag, you’re in luck – this trend will be everywhere this winter. I love a coloured bag for a statement, and since red is hot right now, a large red bag is going to look extra chic. Own a pair of heeled boots? Time to bring those babies out. This season a stiletto heel is favoured over a chunky heel, but both are strong options and will keep your feet cozy. Love fashion and want to learn more? Join me on my next Fashion Stylist Course . It’s a fun, 2-day event with like-minded women that will renew your confidence in yourself and teach you the fashion fundamentals. Secure your spot here .
