Fashion is much more than just a choice of clothes, it is an art form that allows us to express ourselves and communicate our personality to the world. Each of us has a unique and beautiful silhouette. But, learning to dress according to our individual characteristics can make a big difference in how we look and feel.
If you want to know some tricks to dress according to your silhouette, at Rivera we have created this guide inspired by the "Generations" Lookbook to help you. No matter your age or your tastes, with these simple tips you will be able to get the most out of it and look splendid in any situation.
Tip 1: Wear clothes for an inverted triangle silhouette that balances your figure
The inverted triangle silhouette is characterized by having the shoulders wider than the hips, a narrow waist and few curves. In this type of body it is important to harmonize the lower part with the upper part , choosing garments that add volume to the hip area and hide the width of the shoulders.
The clothing for the inverted triangular silhouette with which you will achieve the best result is based on upper garments in dark or neutral colors, plain and with fine fabrics such as the brown Carrie top . The round neckline elongates the neck and slims the torso without adding volume to the shoulder area. In addition, a soft and fluid fall is perfect for adapting to the silhouette without marking it.
As for the bottom part , the clothes for the inverted triangle silhouette that fit best include pants or skirts in light tones, with prints or attention-grabbing details , such as pockets, ruffles or peplums. In this sense, thewhite Martina pants are the perfect match .
Tip 2: If your silhouette is hourglass, bet on clothes that highlight your curves
Women with an hourglass silhouette can afford almost any type of clothing. This type of figure is characterized by aligned shoulders and hips, a well-defined waist and harmonious curves. That is why we must take into account that the garments respect the natural proportions of the body and do not hide the curves .
The ideal for the hourglass silhouette is clothing that fits the chest and waist , but that is neither too tight nor too baggy. The Indira top , for example, fits perfectly on the chest and has a V-neckline that further favors people with this type of figure. If you also combine this top with the Angela vest and fasten it at the front, you will get a better fit, creating the perfect top look.
As for the most flattering bottoms , in the case of the hourglass silhouette, there are flared pants that define your waist . This type of garment, like the Martina pants , follows the line of your hips and does not create extra volume, accentuating your own potential. Also, if you want to mark the waist area even more, this openwork sash is the perfect complement.
Tip 3: The best clothing for a rectangular silhouette is the one that creates the illusion of curves
The main objective of clothing for a rectangular silhouette is to create more curves, providing volume both at the top and at the bottom . This type of figure usually has the shoulders, waist and hips of the same width, as well as very soft curves.
To get the most out of the rectangular silhouette, it is important to bet on upper garments with prints, bright colors, volume and texture . It is also positive that it includes ruffles, gathers or embroidery. The most flattering necklines, in this case, are asymmetrical, round, halter or heart-shaped, which soften the angles and shape the chest.
Dresses that fit the chest and fall gently on the hips like the Wilma dress are a great clothing option for a rectangular silhouette. With this type of garment you will achieve a more feminine and harmonious figure. Although, if you're more into pants, be sure to choose them flared, wide, or flared, like the Jane culotte style .
Remember that the most important thing when choosing an outfit according to your silhouette is that you feel comfortable and confident .
