Hey,

On women I find that a tapered seat looks nice.
It follows the hips tapers to the knee and than
follows your leg straight down.

Also on a side note, make sure your seat is as narrow as
possible, but comfortable, remember that seat width will
affect your wheel width, and that a narrower seat places
the wheels closer to your body and helps protect your biceps,
shoulders, and arms.
