A person is given a figure at birth, and throughout his life a person can change it with the help of exercises and diets. Further in the article we will look at the features of a rectangular figure and find out what things can emphasize its advantages.
Features of the rectangle shape
This type of figure is considered a model, and is not distinguished by feminine lines and seductive shapes. The following can be distinguished features of the “rectangle”:
- difficult to highlight the waist;
- flat buttocks;
- shoulders and hips of equal width;
- slender legs and arms.
The figure is divided into two varieties: a rectangle and a slender column. The first type is distinguished by a slightly protruding belly, average or short stature and large breasts. Girls of the second type are tall, with angular shoulders, barely noticeable breasts and slender arms.
Attention! Even after many years, girls with a “slender column” figure do not gain weight, and their silhouette resembles the outline of a teenage boy.
We emphasize only the advantages of the figure
Thin girls have graceful shoulders and a flat tummy.In the case of excess body weight, it is compensated by beautiful breasts and correct proportions.
Attention! In a rectangular figure, the difference between the hips and waist is not significant: less than 22 cm.
Selecting a wardrobe
Almost anything suits thin girls of this type. But plumper ladies have a problem - the lack of a pronounced waist. This problem can be solved by choosing the right clothes.
Dress
Concerning everyday options, then shirt-cut dresses, a-line, A-line, sheath with peplum, as well as retro dresses in the style of the 50s and safari are ideal.
For an evening look Empire style and asymmetrical dresses with one shoulder are suitable. A high slit on floor-length dresses will effectively highlight slender legs.
Reference! Pay attention to two-tone models with contrasting wedges on the sides, as well as petite black dresses.
Tunics, tops and cardigans
It is not recommended to wear cropped and tight tops with narrow straps. An ill-chosen length will once again emphasize the lack of a waist. A blouson-type cut, as well as a tunic, will look advantageous. But a turtleneck is only appropriate under a jacket.
A good option would be semi-fitted cardigans with one button.
Pants (jeans), shorts
It is better to choose things with a high or low waistline to avoid excess volume. Slim girls can choose trousers of various models, including straight silhouettes, tapered ones or tight skinnies.
You need to know that riding breeches visually round out narrow hips, and a loose “boyfriend” model will add fragility and tenderness to the image. Slender legs will allow you to wear shorts of any length, depending on personal preferences.
Skirts
Ladies with a rectangular figure should opt for a pencil skirt to create an office look.
A sun and trapeze cut will allow you to create a feminine look. Tulip skirt will allow you to add pomp where it is lacking.
Outerwear
There shouldn’t be any difficulties with choosing outerwear. The main principle is not to create unnecessary massiveness. The length can be any, depending on personal preference.
General recommendations will be as follows:
- The coat is trapezoidal, fitted and with sewn pockets. Fur coats - straight or flared, made of short-pile fur.
- Down jackets – straight without a belt or balloons.
- Raincoats and jackets in the form of a classic trench coat.
- Jackets - suit jackets, leather jackets or bomber jackets.
Swimwear
Closed items are not suitable in this case. It is better to choose a bikini in a catchy color. Models with a miniskirt and top trim with frills and folds look good.
What to remove from your wardrobe?
The first thing you should do is remove narrow belts from your wardrobe, as they will only emphasize the lack of a waist. Avoid skirts and trousers with elastic bands, which also focus attention on the problem area.
Tight-fitting clothes are not recommended for girls with a rectangle figure.
Important! Do not use a low-rise skirt or trousers and a cropped crop top in one set.
Suitable fabrics
Take a closer look at soft, airy materials that smoothly envelop the body, and do not stand with a stake. Choose the right color combinations.
Dresses in which the top and bottom differ in color look impressive. Visually, the proportions can be changed using stripes. In particular, horizontal patterns in the waist area will visually add a couple more centimeters to the waistband, while vertical ones, on the contrary, will make it narrower.
Shoes and accessories
There are no strict regulations in the selection of shoes. For short girls, it is better to use flat soles to a minimum and, if possible, choose stiletto heels.
The bag should match the proportions of the body. It is better to give preference to traditional geometric clutches and soft backpacks.
They will look impressive long scarves, chains, beads, as well as massive earrings and brooches. Wide belts are best worn on the hips.
A properly selected wardrobe will help hide figure flaws and highlight your strengths. Therefore, before buying a thing, it is important to pay attention not only to fashion or the manufacturer, but also to whether it will suit your figure.
