HOW TO DRESS THE INVERTED TRIANGLE BODY SHAPE

WHAT DOES THE INVERTED TRIANGLE BODY SHAPE LOOK LIKE? :

The inverted triangle body is the one where the broadest part of the body is in the shoulders, and the smallest, tiniest part are the waist and hips. Professional swimmers have this body type mainly, due to the vigorous upper body strength they use daily.

But also body builders and some dancers have it too. Or those lucky to be born with it.

It is considered a lit more of a masculine body shape, as most men have this shape naturally. But it can be very feminine in the correct clothing.


 

HOW TO DRESS AN INVERTED BODY SHAPE :

Some ways to dress this body shape is to wear clothes that are tighter on the top and much looser on the bottom, to give the elusion of fullness and symmetry.

Empire line dresses are great, A-line skirts are good, and baggy pants that are not clingy to the body are the best. But as always, try things out in the shops to see what looks best for your body. And if you are brave, try going to a few shops and try everything you can, only then will you really know what suits you or not.






 

WHAT NOT TO WEAR :

A good rule of thumb for this body type is to not wear anything too tight on the bottom or it will make you look like you have stalk legs. There isn't much you can do as in exercise to change the shape as it is formed from years of training. If it is natural, once again not much you can do. The body is the way it is and eating healthy is the best solution, and light exercises daily like yoga and power-walking are great.

Things like jumpsuits aren't flattering, neither are skinny jeans, avoid them.


 

CELEBS WITH THIS BODY SHAPE :

There are quite a few celebrities that have the inverted triangular shaped body and it's a great idea to do some more of your own research to see what they wear and which style suits you to emulate and try out for yourself. These are just a handful.



 

TIPS : You are very lucky to have this body type, especially when it comes to swim suits. This is where your body type thrives the most. This is where you can get away with the most sexy swimming costume you want to wear, you can certainly get away with it. So why not go for it?
