Dress to impress – whatever shape you are

If you're going out for the evening, our tips will help you feel like the belle of the ball. Whether you're curvy or slim, dressing right for your shape can help bring out your best bits and hide a multitude of sins.

Women with hangerBack in black

It's true – wearing black really can make you look slimmer, thanks to a trick of the light. The optical illusion minimises shadows cast across the fabric, making you appear smaller. So dust off that little black dress – it's a classic shade that never seems to date. Brighten yours up with a great, colourful pair of shoes and a chic bag to match.

Asset management

Accentuate your assets! If you're proud of your pins, show them off with daring hemlines and heels. Monroe-style curves look stunning in figure-skimming styles and cinched-in waistlines. And wrap dresses are perfect for fuller figures as they can be tied together to flatter all the right places and disguise the rest. If you're more Audrey Hepburn than Marilyn, make the most of your bounce-free chest by bravely going bra-less in sleek strapless tops. A flash of slender shoulders can be really sexy too – especially with a slick of shimmer body lotion.

Beauty from within

Make the most of your natural beauty with Dove's range of shower creams and decadent silky body lotions. With 1/4 moisturising cream in every bottle, you'll be feeling – and looking – great all over.

Protect your investment

You love your clothes, so give them the protection and care they deserve when it comes to the wash. Always check the care label and for delicates use gentle hand-washing detergents designed to protect your precious threads - Persil Silk & Wool is ideal. And to get your clothes smelling as great as they feel, our range of fabric conditioners now includes a variety of sensuous fragrances.
