Style keywords

• Urban

• Professional

• Edgy

• Sophisticated

• Understated

• Tasteful (not too sexy for the office)

Silhouette

Inverted triangle with large bust

Style approach

 Play up the bottom to balance the body. We’re going for visual balance/symmetry and to minimize the bust. 

Colors

Pieces

Tops

• V, square or cowl neck

• 3/4, flare, batwing, puff or straight cut sleeve

• Drop tops, trapeze, empire waist

• Higher cut arm holes

• Knits that keep a close line to the body

• Longer shirts drawing the eye down

• Custom tailored button up shirts.

Avoid: Tops with built-in volume, big shawl collars, shirts made from shiny materials (satin, silk) that reflect light and draw attention to the bust. Breast pockets and shirts that are 100% cotton (spandex will improve the fit for you)

Pants

Any style that will accentuate your bottom and leg line, such as:

• Patterns and prints

• Straight, boot cut, boyfriend or baggy trousers or jeans

• Combat, palazzo, flares, wide legs

• Embellishment on the back pockets

• Wide belt loops, side pocket details

• Slim-fitted waist with gradual flare to create width and balance broad shoulders

Skirts

• Shorter length

• Prints or bright colors

• Soft A-line with inverted pleats

• Straight skirts that just about cover the knee

• Maxi skirts with a waistline

• Full skirts

Avoid: Longer pencil skirts

Dresses

• Minimal and clean at the top

• Full skirted

• Drop waist

• Draped/loose-fitting

• Shorter shapeless shifts

• Narrow in the hip and cut at the bias

• Empire seam

Avoid: Off-the-shoulder necklines and any dress that would cause you to go braless

Jackets

• Button below the bustline

• Fitted, short boxy jackets with two or three buttons

• Narrow lapel to call less attention to the chest area

• High armholes — thinner sleeve widths create distinction between the arm and the chest

Avoid: Baggy, untailored jackets

Shoes

• Ankle straps, booties or other statement shoes

• Knee-high boots

• Heavier or rounder shoes

• Kitten or wedge heels

Accessories

• Long necklaces

• Bulky handbags that sit at the hips

• Statement belts
