In the warm season, both men and women bare their shoulders. And if, in preparation for this period, they begin to actively lose weight, do exercises for the legs and arms, then for some reason they rarely think about this part of the body. What should a person do if he naturally has sloping shoulders? Many people consider this feature of the figure to be a disadvantage.
Sloping shoulders - the impression of fragility
So, more details. It is really impossible to say which shoulders are beautiful. Everyone has their own idea of beauty. Some people like wide and straight shoulders, while others like narrow and sloping shoulders. In a word, as they say, "the taste and color." But the most important thing is the overall harmony.
Narrow sloping shoulders today still do not correspond to the ideal of a woman. The image of an energetic, active, sporty personality is in fashion. Well, thanks to the sloping shoulders, it seems that their owner is not only a fragile woman, but even weak-willed. In addition, this feature violates the proportions of the figure, and therefore requires correction. So what to do?
Expand visually
Sloping shoulders are not really a problem. They can be visually expanded with the help of the correct cut, texture and color of the material, special details of the clothing design. Designers recommend using wide collars, set-in sleeves, yokes, necklines with a horizontal cut, shoulder pads.
Horizontal lines give the illusion of width. Therefore, stripes in the shoulder area on the material can also visually expand them. Today, many designers use a fashionable technique called "color blocks" - colored, horizontally oriented stripes.
Collars and Collars
Now about the most common ways of visual correction of the figure. In any fashion magazine you can see and understand how to hide sloping shoulders. Photos show the use of yokes, special cutouts and collars.
So, in knitwear for "shoulder extension" coquettes are used, distinguished by light shades and a convex pattern. An excellent option would be wide cutouts "square" or "boat", complemented by sleeves with an assembly at the okat, wings or lanterns. The silhouette of the figure is visibly balanced. But this is only for thin women. Lush ladies should not get carried away with assemblies in the shoulder area. They have enough set-in sleeves in combination with a wide neckline. You can also combine materials by color. Light or with a contrasting pattern - at the top of the product. Dark solid color material at the bottom.
The volume of the shoulders is well increased and widecollars. In summer clothes - frill collars, in winter - fur collars. These also include removable accessories and boas. In a word, looking fashionable and harmonious is not so difficult.
Even swimwear
Even on the beach, you can "expand" sloping shoulders a little. Photos of women from the rest are always available in sufficient quantities. So, ladies with sloping shoulders should have special models of swimsuits in which the necessary details are clearly visible. For example, at the top, the straps should be as wide as possible. The combination of fabrics in color - as in other elements of the wardrobe. That is, a light and colored top, a plain and dark bottom.
An excellent option is to use a tankini. This swimsuit consists of shorts and a top with wide straps. This significantly increases the chances of success in the visual expansion of the shoulders.
