Understanding Your Balance

This is not about placing you in a category, but about recognising where your balance naturally sits. Designers often create clothing with narrower shoulders in mind, which explains why fit can sometimes feel tight at the top and loose at the bottom.

Knowing that your proportions lean towards an Inverted Triangle helps you understand why certain cuts and fabrics balance your outline more comfortably. It is less about size, more about proportion and how to work
with it.

Understanding Your Balance

Your Next Step in Dressing
With Confidence

One of the simplest ways to balance an Inverted Triangle shape is to soften the focus on your top half while creating more shape and movement on the bottom. Think clean lines and minimal detail on top, paired with trousers, skirts, or dresses that add volume, structure, or flow. This helps guide the eye and creates a more harmonious silhouette.

Many women with this shape tell me they feel as though their outfits are “all shoulders” or that nothing ever looks quite balanced. The reality is, your shape is not wrong—you simply need to understand how to dress in a way that brings out your proportions at their best.

You do not need to hide or minimise yourself. The key is balance, and once you know how to achieve it, getting dressed stops being trial and error and starts to feel effortless.
