If you want to downplay a big bust…A classic, fit-to-flare silhouette is the most figure-flattering style for any body shape. And it’s great if you specifically want to downplay a bigger bust and bring balance to your top-heavy figure (we’re talking to you, Inverted Triangles and Hourglass gals). Obsessed with this floral brocade print in the upcoming Pantone “Color of the Year,” Radiant Orchid.Alice and Olivia Foss dress, $440

If you want to create curves…If you have a straight Ruler figure, you really can’t go wrong with a body-hugging, curve-creating, all-over sequin dress on New Year’s. The great thing about sequins and metallics is that they help reflect the light, creating Kardashian-like curves, and all that shimmer and shine will give your slender body far more dimension. Instead of boring black, go for a rich-looking navy shade like this one.Parker Racer Back Sequin Dress, $398

If you want to show off sexy legs…Draw all the attention to your gorgeous gams in a mini metallic skirt. Pair with a fuller coverage top, so the only skin showing is your legs. And for even more “look-at-me” supermodel legs, slip on a pair of sky-high pumps.Nameless Metallic Lace Skirt, $38

If you want to showcase your toned arms…A slinky, sparkly halter top to a great way to show off all of your hard work at the gym. Complete the outfit—and look fabulous—with a leather moto jacket, dark skinny jeans and ankle booties.Haute Hippie Sequin Embellished Halter Top, $395
