"I'm Bruce Marshall here in Budapest Hungary and I'm going to show you how to dress to flatter an hourglass body shape. And you know an hourglass body shape is one of those perfect bodies quite frankly where its zoom zoom as demonstrated by the lovely model Kata we have here. Now one great secret for doing it and to really flattering it and bringing the lines in are using basically vertical lines in the design. So as you can see it elongates it and as it gets to the hips where the curve is that gives it that hourglass shape. The skirt, it hugs and it continues to go down, and then there's that beautiful flare at the end. And this is a classic hourglass design by Hungarian designer Peroska Buchenhas. Now another trick when you're really putting clothes on or designing clothes for someone with a perfect hourglass shape is that sometimes they tend to be a little bit more busty at the top and then a design like this where it's loose around the top and it's a bustier kind of design you can actually allow for more or less on the top and the rest of it will still stay in balance. And that's what beautiful about those ladies that have that beautiful hourglass figure."
