Frequently asked questions
Which silhouettes suit a rectangle body type?
A belted waist, peplum, or ruffles add curve to a straighter frame. Mix textures and prints to bring shape and interest to the outfit. A rectangle shape is similar bust, waist, and hip measurements, and every DIYO garment is cut to your own measurements, so the proportions the sketch promises are the proportions you get.
Which fabrics work best for a rectangle body type?
Fabrics with texture or structure: organza for volume, checks and stripes for graphic interest, satin with a belted waist to create a curve the frame does not have on its own.
Do I need to pick a size?
No. DIYO does not use a size chart — every garment is stitched to your own measurements. After you approve a quote we send a link on WhatsApp to enter them, and the sizing guide at /guides/sizing shows how to take each one at home.
How do I use this guide in the DIYO designer?
Choose the outfit category this guide points you to, then a hand-drawn sketch in that category, then a fabric from the fabric guides. Preview the finished design — on a model or on your own photo — and request a quote on WhatsApp from the preview screen.
