Choosing Necklines That Flatter Your Body

Dressing for your body type and knowing which styles flatter you can significantly boost your confidence and simplify shopping and getting dressed. When you understand what works for you and what doesn’t, you eliminate the guesswork. Understanding which necklines suit you best is particularly beneficial, and one of the best ways to decide is by observing how different necklines look on various body types and bust sizes. Instead of just talking about how to wear each neckline or browsing online and only seeing different styles on slender models, being able to visually see how a neckline looks on your body type can help you determine if you like it.

Here’s a breakdown of some common necklines and how they appear on women of different sizes to help you identify which ones to add to your wardrobe!
