Shape/Silhouette: Inverted Triangle

Goal: 

Balance proportions by minimizing the upper body and emphasizing the lower body. At the ideal weight, an inverted triangle can wear nearly any style successfully. 

Wear:

• Sleek shirt and jacket shapes, smooth textures and vertical design lines
• Stronger colours, interesting patterns and eye catching details in skirts and bottoms
• Jackets and tops that fit your broad shoulders, consider sizing up
• Exposed necklines including, v- neck, scoop necks one- shoulderWear shirts that are low and open
• High waisted or mid-rise bottoms
• Colour matching belts to pants/skirts 
• Shorter jackets
• Minimal details around shoulder lines 
• Vertical design details, seams, darts, open jackets 
• Wide leg pants and full skirts
• Use interesting design details, bright colours and prints to accentuate your lower body
• Less fitted, relaxed silhouettes like boyfriend jeans or culottes

Avoid: 

• Jackets that end at the waistline if you have weight gain or thickness through the middle
• Finishing any part of a garment at the widest part of the body
