You have an Inverted triangle body shape

Wow! look at your positives...

• You have the body of athletes and models

• you're probably a strong swimmer

• clothes hang elegantly from a strong shoulder line

• broad shoulders make your waist look slimmer

• slim hips and thighs with wonderful legs
  

Maximize your amazing body shape by:

• enjoying and even emphasizing your strong shoulder line

• allow your broadness to slenderize the rest of your figure

• don't add additional bulk to your shoulders
  

Balance a strong shoulder line by...

• drawing the eye down to your bottom half with color or print

• a dropped neckline such as a soft cowl or ruffles to bring attention to your cleavage

• a long necklace

• assymetric styles add interest at the hipline

• detail or pockets at the hipline

• palazzo pants or tulip style skirt to add width to your bottom half

• you can add softness and volume to your bottom half to balance it if it feels right for you

And the CONS...

There are very few CONS to this body shape but when it's time to put on weight you WILL put it on around your midriff! 

This area is probably the easiest to disguise and you WILL invariably retain slim hips and thighs.

Flaunt those fabulous shoulders!

Look at these fabulous girls! All standing tall, flaunting and even enhancing their broad shoulders - it makes their waist and hips look even more slender. All the ladies use curved detail on their hip line to add curves and balance the figure - seam detail, ruching and folds, softly flowing chiffon.

Dress your own Body Shape

Getting clothes to fit well is difficult - until you know how. Although you now understand the basics of fitting your Inverted triangle body shape, your actual body shape is quite unique!

We're all individual and most of us have the odd 'figure challenge' - perhaps sloping shoulders or a hollow back, a bust that you consider too big or too small - but then again you've probably got enviable legs that are worth showing off.

You can easily learn to accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative by recognizing the shapes that will work best for you. Once you know how to dress your shape you will always know what to look for and what to avoid!
