Description
Your shoulders are broader than your hips. If a generic style guide has ever felt slightly off, this is why: almost all of them assume you need to broaden the shoulder and play down the hip, which on your body is precisely backwards.
The work happens below: volume in a skirt, a wide leg, pockets, color and print on the bottom half. And above, lightening rather than structuring. Once the hip gains presence, the shoulder line stops reading as the dominant point.
It also covers the detail that changes the most on this shape and gets mentioned the least: what to do about sleeves.
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.
