Shoulders and hips in balance, a defined waist
Your shoulders and hips are about the same width and your waist is clearly defined. The natural move is to follow that curve, not hide it.
Your key: follow your line and mark the waist.
- Tops and necklines
- V, wrap or round necklines, and pieces that skim the body without clinging.
- Waist
- Belts at the waist and tailored pieces underline your balance.
- Jackets
- Fitted jackets, cropped at the waist or at hip length.
- Skirts and trousers
- Pencil or A-line skirts and high-waisted trousers, straight or flared.
- Dresses
- Wrap dresses, fitted dresses or anything with a defined waist.
A first, indicative look: a CARO consultation confirms it in person, with real clothes and frames.
