Suitable style for inverted triangle body

These people have wider shoulders and therefore the upper part of the upper body is more voluminous.

n

So to balance it out, you need to wear clothes that make a narrower lower body look bigger. These clothes should give more curves to the hips and make the waist more defined, while taking the focus away from the upper body. But how to do this?

n

n
• Do not choose a wide collar because it exposes the shoulders more. Do not use shoulder pads;

n

• Avoid patterns and decorations on the shoulder. Shawls around the shoulder are not suitable for you either;

n

• The simpler you choose the upper body, the better;

n

• Wear clothes that give volume and curves to the hips to make the shoulders and chest look smaller;

n

• Bright colors with details on the lower body, make attention to be diverted from the upper body;

n

• The details at the waist create the illusion of a hollow waist;

n

• Avoid wearing narrow and tight pants that make the lower body look thinner.

First part: upper body clothes

n

Now let's see which model these people should choose from each type of clothing.

n

1. tops

n

A) Top collar

n

n

The neckline for the inverted triangle body should be lower than the shoulders and chest. In this way, the focus is removed from the shoulder.

n

Narrow and long collars can visually reduce the width of the upper part of the torso. Narrow and long scoop neckline, U-shaped neckline or seven-neck are perfect.

n

Asymmetric neckline styles can separate the chest area vertically. If your chest isn't big, a halter neck can make your body appear longer.

n

Wide and long collars such as off-shoulder, boat, square and Sabrina, which make your shoulders appear wider, are not suitable for you.

n

n

b) Top sleeve: short sleeve

n

n

Sleeves should also look slimmer like the collars. About short sleeves, tight and narrow sleeves can reduce the width of the shoulders. Vertical slits and cap sleeves can visually reduce shoulder width.

n

c) Top sleeve: long sleeve

n

n

The opposite is true for long sleeves. Raglan, kimono or dolman (bat) sleeves can add volume to the hips and thus balance the shoulders.

n

Wide straps are better than thin straps, thin straps can make the shoulders look bigger.

n

A lot of detailing on the sleeves at the shoulder can make them look wider. Puffy sleeves are one of those sleeves that are not suitable for you.
