Description

Your shoulders, waist and hips run in an almost straight line. There is no wide point to compensate for, which is exactly why general guides fall short with you: nearly all of them are written to correct an excess you do not have.

Your job is the opposite, and it is constructive: creating definition where there is none. There are three separate ways to do it — marking the waist, adding volume above and below, or layering to break the straight line — and the guide develops all three so you can pick the one that suits your day.

It also covers when not to create a curve at all, because a straight line is exactly what some clothes are asking for.

What is inside

The four levers — volume, line, proportion and echo. The mechanism behind why a garment works, so you can decide on your own in front of anything this guide does not cover.
Ten applications across garments, fabrics, color and accessories, each with examples and concrete signs to tell whether you got it right.
Which shapes get confused with yours, and the exact test to tell them apart.
Five real situations for when the theory meets your actual life: work uniforms, summer, and the pieces you love that do not follow the rules.
A one-page cheat sheet to check before you leave the house, with nothing to re-read.
