You have narrow shoulders, a defined and long waist and your hips and bottom are full with shorter legs.
Style Solution: Go wild on top and dark on bottom to balance out! Add width at the shoulders, highlight your waist, play down your hips and add height to your leg line. Seems like a lot to remember but these tips will change you from a triangle to an hourglass in an instant!
What to Wear
• Fitted coats in three quarter or knee length draw the eye out past the widest part of your body.
• Tailored jackets with strong shoulders, plunging necklines and a nipped waist that finishes on the hip bone brings balance and keeps the interest at the top half of your body.
• Details to look for are wide lapels and collars, puff sleeves, epaulettes, frills or flounces around the neckline in soft fabrics.
• Dresses or tops that are strapless, slashed, straight, off the shoulder or in a wide scoop neck.
• Sequinned cap sleeve shrugs, bulky knits or layered lighter fabrics for visual interest up top.
• A-line skirts or dresses hemmed just below the knee or maxi length.
• Dark colours worn below the waistline play down hips and thighs.
• Boot cut and wide leg pants make hips look slender by balancing your body top to toe. Wear with heels for a flattering leg line.
• Think vertical. A long A-line skirt will narrow and lengthen.
• Accessories like statement necklaces and belts highlight your best assets.
