What to wear:
- You can wear almost any fitted top you want, but avoid anything tight.

- High necklines.
What should Apple shapes wear?

Can apple shapes wear crop tops?
If you’re apple-shaped, look for crop tops with interesting sleeve details or neat embroidery at the shoulders. A long maxi skirt will also help lengthen your look, and there’s no shame in a side slit to show off your shoes.
Can apple shape wear sheath dresses?
But they can also be just the thing for apple shaped women. The fit and flare look isn’t your friend because of the cinched in waist. You can wear the same full skirts (in certain dresses) AND the sheath dresses pear shaped women can only covet. Look at you having it all.
