What Kind of Dresses Look Good on Petite Muscular Woman

If you have an athletic (or rectangle) body type, you might struggle shopping for flattering clothing — especially online. Most fashion models do not have a very athletic build, so it can be hard to tell what a piece might look like on you versus on them. We promise though, there are plenty of dresses out there you'll look gorgeous wearing!
An athletic shape has shoulders and hips at about the same width and weight pretty evenly distributed throughout the body. This means you'll want something that emphasizes either the top or the lower half of your body, not both. Fit-and-flare dresses can help balance broader shoulders, or you could accentuate them with an accent-sleeve top and more fitted skirt. Halter and racerback styles are also amazing for showing off toned arms. Strapless works too! You could also go for something with a plunging V or scoop neckline to flatter your bust.
Want to see some examples we love? We've picked out 21 dresses for you, so let's get to them!
