How to style clothes correctly if you have wide shoulders

Each figure is unique and inimitable. However, all fashionistas strive to emphasize the advantages and features of their bodies.

Broad shoulders have been in trend for more than one season. But what about those who have them by nature? If you have a broad shoulder line but don't like to focus on it, there are some tips on how to achieve balance in your look. In particular, experts from the Ukrainian brand VOVK shared their recommendations.

What to avoid

Oversized and sharp shoulders

Oversize will only emphasize broad shoulders.

In order to balance your outfit, it is better to give up oversized eco-leather jackets and blouses with puffed sleeves. You can also add clothes with shoulder pads that create a massive look to this list.

Intense decor

Intense décor will attract too much attention.

Decorative elements on clothes can visually make the shoulder line wider. We are talking about wide ruffles on blouses, jackets and dresses with so-called shoulder straps.

Prints

Avoid horizontal stripes.

A taboo among prints is a horizontal stripe on long sleeves, tops, and dresses.

How to balance the look

Jackets and shirts

Shirts should be free of unnecessary details.

You should choose a top made of thick fabric. These can be sweaters with a smooth texture, classic shirts without pockets, and fitted jackets.

Recommendations

The right neckline

Give preference to V- and U-necks.

V- and U-necks visually narrow the shoulders. Be careful with deep necklines as they can have the opposite effect.

Sleeve cut

Be careful with the sleeves.

When choosing, pay attention to styles with dropped, bell-shaped, or kimono-style sleeves. These elements soften the shoulder line.

Voluminous bottom

The voluminous bottom will create the right balance.

To balance the top, try styling the voluminous bottom. Here, fashionable palazzo pants or pants with flares will come in handy. As for jeans, take a closer look at mom or banana jeans. As for skirts, pleated, trapeze and sun skirts are the best choices.

Emphasized waistline

The accentuated waist will add femininity to the look.

A high-waisted bottom will look best. Bright and chunky accessories, such as belts, will help emphasize femininity. Give preference to fitted styles and wrap-around clothes.
