Fit Tips

When it comes to looking and feeling your best in the clothes you wear, knowing your body type and what best suits it, is just as important as knowing your proper size. Determine your individual body shape, and read below for helpful suggestions on what styles are most—and least—flattering for you.

V-SHAPE OR INVERTED TRIANGLE

GOAL: DRAW ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE SHOULDERS AND TORSO TO BALANCE THE SILHOUETTE.

  • Choose single-breasted jackets, and straight-lined, jackets.
  • Choose brighter colors in pants and skirts to detract from a broad torso.
  • Suggested styles: narrow sleeves, narrow and deep necklines.
  • Avoid: boat necklines, bustline details or pockets, empire waists, boxy jackets wide belts, sweaters with a high neck.
