Takeaways

• 😀 Know your body shape: Inverted triangle body types have wider shoulders and narrower hips, and clothing should be chosen to balance this out.
• 😀 Neckline tips: Avoid off-the-shoulder tops and square necklines; simple scoop necklines are preferable to de-emphasize broad shoulders.
• 😀 Sleeve guidelines: Opt for fitted short sleeves and wide, loose long sleeves; avoid excessive detail or poofy shoulders.
• 😀 Shirt choices: Fitted shirts are great, as opposed to boxy men's shirts which hide curves. Avoid shirts with too much detail at the top.
• 😀 Bottoms for inverted triangle shapes: Avoid skinny jeans; choose high-waisted, light-colored, and detailed pants or wide-leg styles to add curves.
• 😀 Skirt style tips: High-waisted and flared skirts with patterns or colors are ideal. Avoid tight and narrow skirts that lack flare.
• 😀 Shorts for your body shape: Similar to skirts, opt for baggy, high-waisted, or wide styles; avoid small, tight, plain shorts.
• 😀 Dresses: Flared waist, details, and patterns at the lower half are preferred; avoid spaghetti straps and tight, narrow dresses.
• 😀 Color choices: Darker tops are easier to wear, while lighter colors and patterns work better on the bottom half.
• 😀 Layering strategies: In warmer weather, if you can't wear spaghetti strap dresses, layer with a cardigan or sweater for a better look.
• 😀 Personal advice: The guidelines shared are suggestions based on research and experience, not professional advice. Experiment and find what works best for you.

Q & A

What is the main goal when choosing clothes for an inverted triangle body shape?

The main goal is to balance the broad shoulders with a narrower lower body by choosing clothes that add curves to the hips and bottom, creating a more defined waist.

Why should you avoid off-the-shoulder tops if you have an inverted triangle body shape?

Off-the-shoulder tops emphasize the shoulders, which are already broader in an inverted triangle body shape. The aim is to de-emphasize the shoulders.

What type of neckline works best for an inverted triangle body shape?

Necklines like scoop necks work well because they hide the shoulders. Avoid square necklines and deep V-neck styles unless other clothing elements are balanced.

Why should you avoid boxy shirts when dressing for an inverted triangle body shape?

Boxy shirts hide curves and can make the body look straight. Fitted tops are preferred to add definition and balance out the body proportions.

What type of sleeves should you choose if you have an inverted triangle body shape?

For short sleeves, opt for fitted shirts, while for long sleeves, choose wide, loose sleeves. Avoid extra details or puffed shoulders that make the upper body look larger.

Why is wearing skinny jeans generally not recommended for those with an inverted triangle body shape?

Skinny jeans emphasize the lack of curves in the lower body, which is a common feature of the inverted triangle body shape. Instead, choose high-waisted pants with wider legs or flared designs to add balance.

What should you look for when choosing skirts for an inverted triangle body shape?

Look for skirts that are high-waisted and have flared or wide designs, as these add volume to the hips and create a more balanced silhouette.

How can you add curves to your hips and bottom when choosing pants for an inverted triangle body shape?

Choose pants with a high waist, light colors, and patterns around the hip, bottom, or thigh areas. Wide-leg, loose, or flared designs help add volume to the lower body.

What are some general rules when choosing dresses for an inverted triangle body shape?

For dresses, avoid tight, narrow, or spaghetti strap designs. Opt for dresses with a flared waist, patterns, light colors, and details on the lower half. A belted waist also helps create a more defined silhouette.

Why is black not recommended for the bottom half of clothing if you have an inverted triangle body shape?

Black can make the bottom half look smaller and hide curves, which contradicts the goal of adding volume and creating a more balanced appearance.
