Why do I have a boyish figure?
In artistic terms, it usually indicates being rather thin and andogynous. Generally, a boyish figure in a woman is one which is slim, with relatively narrow hips and breasts that are not particularly large. The term can also imply above average height and sometimes powerful/wide shoulders.
How should I dress to compliment my figure?
Stick to one colour palette to create a leaner, overall shape. If you want to divert the attention off of your hips, look for full skirt dresses that will help balance out your proportions. Otherwise, try wearing a statement top or dress with an embellished neckline to draw attention to the upper part of your body.
What do you wear with a straight body shape?
Empire line dresses, princess seam dresses, and wrap dresses are great choices for the rectangle body. A belt is a must-have and can change the shape of any dress (even shapeless ones).

Loose and asymmetrical tops emphasize the upper body. Waisted tops, short cut jackets/blazers and trousers with high waist balance the proportions. Slightly flared skirts and dresses fall over the hips in a flattering way.
