Choosing clothes for a rectangular shape

Thin waist, high chest, rounded feminine thighs ...

- Not a figure, but a dream! - You say with regret, mentally trying on perfectly outlined forms on yourself, and plunging into a light gloom at the sight of non-standard reflection in the mirror. And what standard can we talk about, if your figure resembles an exactly outlined rectangle, completely devoid of sexual bends? And it's not even in excess weight! Although the excessively wide waist can actually become the result of fatty deposits like "apple", among the owners of a rectangular figure are a lot of fragile girls.

As a rule, the ideal difference between the waist and hips is the coveted 30 cm. On the rectangular type of the figure, you should speak only if you have a tiny chest, and the waist size is not more than 20 cm from the hips. By the way, most professional athletes because of the developed muscles of the torso and broad shoulders have a typically rectangular figure, which does not prevent them from conquering the hearts of millions of fans. As, indeed, the famous Hollywood beauties, such as Paris Hilton, Cameron Diaz and Uma Thurman, one of the secrets of femininity is the right clothes. Follow our advice and you will be convinced: the correctly made wardrobe is really capable to transform your appearance!

Lady X, or we achieve the effect of hourglasses with the help of diagonal lines!

If you have a rectangular figure, replenish your wardrobe with things, the main lines of which, converging in the navel area, form the letter "X". Such an intersection of diagonals visually narrow the waist, giving the figure the desired shape. Feel free to put on blouses with a smell on the waist and a deep V-neck with skirts flared to the bottom. Give preference to jackets and cardigans, fastened to one button at the waist, as well as blouses with double-sided locks, which can be undone both from below and from above, giving the image an X-shaped silhouette. Decorative diagonal lines or embroidery can also become a successful functional addition, hiding the shortcomings of a rectangular figure.

We learn techniques of successful disguise!

The straight cut of clothes intriguingly veils a wide waist. Open the same slender legs at the same time add to the image of sexuality, emphasizing the dignity of the figure. A similar effect can be achieved with a combination of blouses with an overstated waistline with trousers or jeans on the hips. In this case, the length of the blouse must be below the navel! An excellent choice will also be short flared dresses with an overstated waistline. Remember, your main task: do not try to correct the shortcomings, and properly hide them, emphasizing the dignity of the figure! Therefore, the shifted waist line in combination with a short length - your horse!

The secret of style lies in comparison!

Remember: your waist is wide only relative to the chest and thighs! And, means, you can always visually correct the difference, adding the missing hips and chest volume with decorative elements and horizontal lines. Wide belts, appliqués, cut-off coquette, cutouts in the form of a "boat", sleeves-flashlights, patch pockets, drapes, flounces and all kinds of folds can be a real salvation for slender girls with a rectangular figure!

Several forbidden fruits for a rectangular figure!

  1. Rounded notches, elongated jackets and cardigans - not your style: they will only give the figure a baggy look!
  2. Thin, tight-fitting fabrics (thin knitwear, light flowing silk, etc.), even with the right cut of clothes, are able to give out all the shortcomings of the figure! Give preference to heavy fabrics, well holding a shape, such as crepe, denim, corduroy, gabardine.
  3. Avoid decorative elements in clothing, accentuating attention to the waist, especially the belts!
  4. And most importantly, remember: do not try to pull the unyielding waist as hard as possible. Despite the fact that the rectangular figure often looks boyish, she gives out an active dynamic personality, which, by the way, can acquire quite appetizing forms after pregnancy!
