Inverted Triangle Body Type + Outfit

Good evening lovelies! Today, I am going to talk to you all about another body type: the Inverted Triangle.

This is what I am. When I learned about how to dress my body type, it opened up my eyes so much it was astounding. I suddenly understand why I looked so bad in pictures sometimes and why I looked larger than I actually was.

Inverted Triangle

Body Type

Shoulders broader than hips. Flat rear. Weight gain occurs in midriff, breasts, and tummy. Need to add fullness to lower half of the body, creating the illusion of an hourglass.

- Flared skirts or
boot-cut pants
- Halter tops, avoid spaghetti straps or pencil skirts
- Diagonal, wrap tops
- Brighter colors and prints on bottom. Solids on top


Inverted Triangle Outfit - $50 or Less



Taffeta Trim Dress: $10.99

This dress is absolutely perfect. It looks like a halter, and it has a lighter colored ruffled skirt bottom. I couldn't have made a better dress for this body type myself.

Cuffed Suede Boots: $17.99

These are just amazing, and with the color on the bottom, all the attention will be drawn away from your top half and will fall on the waist and below.

Grommeted Faux Leather Bag: $10.99

When a cross-body bag is of a brighter color and it falls at the hips, it gives the illusion of wider hips. This is perfect to add to the illusion of an hourglass figure.

UO Rhinestone Charm Necklace: $3.99

Slouchy Ruffle Over the Knee: $4.99

I have an obsession with over-the-knee socks. Any detail below the waist will draw attention to it and not up top, so these are also perfect, and just adorable.
