The Rectangle-Shape Figure

The Rectangle-Shape Figure

Typically rectangles have: A lean athletic figure Fuller neck Broad Back Average bust Undefined waist Great arms & legs

Objective: BALANCE Balance is always the goal. You need to create the appearance of a curvier waist and bottom to enhance your femininity and draw focus to your enviable legs and thighs. Top it

• Bra that offers good support (foundation garments are critical)
• Spaghetti straps, wrap around, V or scooped necklines emphasize your bust. Camis and tanks with a jacket and belt or blazer are super
• Jackets and blazers that cinch or flares at the waist create instant hip
• You can wear most colors and smaller prints… LUCKY

Shape it

• Denim that hugs and lifts your bottom are a valuable find
• Smaller back pockets spread apart, with flaps even better, make your bottom look fuller
• Flat front denim and trousers with a back pocket and flaps, adds curve
• Denim and trousers slightly flared will also balance your hips
• Mid to low-rise waistline, depending on your tummy
• A-line, pencil and flared skirts are ideal
• A drop waist is a flirty option

Avoid it

• Baggy, frumpy or shapeless lines
• Vertical patterns call attention to your straight physique
• Clinging fitted tops will only bring disappointment
• High waisted and cut bottoms
