Another objective may be to elongate your legs. You are lucky in that your body is already balanced. Your bust and hips are around the same size. Other body shapes will find that they need to add balance. So you will want to keep the balance that you have and avoid adding any “bulk” with your clothing. If you add ruffles or extra width to your bust, for example, you will lose your ideal hourglass shape and end up looking “top heavy”.
