![]() If you have a curved face shape, look for softer V shapes rather than sharp ones. This is also known as a wrap neckline and is a version of a V shape that is often deeper. If you have a more curved face shape (round, oval, oblong) then putting a cami under your top to soften the V neck is a great way of making it more flattering for your face. A wider V shape is great to draw the eye upwards and outwards which also can help narrow a thicker torso ( H shape and O shape).įace shapes that find a V neckline is ideal are the diamond and heart face shapes that have a naturally pointed jaw shape. Shorter Vs work for those with higher first balance points and longer necks, whilst deeper Vs are great for shorter necks. If you want to balance hips (A shape, 8 Shape, X Shape) then go for wide V necklines. If you have wide shoulders ( V shape or even I shape) then go for narrower, deeper V shapes. ![]() You’ll find some flatter you more than others. There are a variety of different V necklines – narrow Vs, wide Vs, short Vs and deep Vs. The scoop neck also works well when you have a shorter neck as the open space creates visual elongation. It’s also great if you have a larger bust as it will visually diminish it and make it less apparent. This is a great shape for the curved face woman, oval shape, round shape, and oblong shape faces all find this one of their best necklines. It can work for many face shapes and is ideal for oval, round, oblong and pear shaped faces. Thicker fabric and lower drape are good for a small busted woman, whilst a finer fabric and shorter drape is good for a large busted woman. Depending on the fabric and amount of drape, it can work for both large and small busted women. This is a particularly flattering neckline if your jaw is softer or you don’t have a defined jaw or chin as the softness of the neckline doesn’t compete with these features. As it’s a higher neckline it is also good for the smaller busted woman. Avoid the boat neck if you are a V shape or have a very square shoulder line that you want to make look softer. As it draws the eyes wider and creates a horizontal line higher up on the body, it’s great for A shapes, 8 Shapes and X shapes who want to balance their hips and shoulders. This flatter shaped neckline (also known as a bateau neckline) is best on those who have a more square jaw or chin (such as square and rectangle face shapes) as it harmonises with the flatter planes of these jawlines. It’s good for those with a smaller bust or face as it balances these features. Because it is still a high neckline, it will emphasise your bust and make it appear larger. ![]() Like the crew neck, it suits a more curved jawline that is found on the round, oval and oblong face shapes. Sometimes also called a jewel neck, this is a lower version of the crew neckline, it sits on or below the 2nd balance point and is much easier to wear if you don’t have a long neck. It’s good for broader shoulders as it draws the eye inwards and up to your face. It makes your bust look larger, so if you have a large bust and don’t wish to further emphasise it, then stay away from the crew neck and go for a lower neckline. A crew neckline is best when you have a curved jawline ( round, oval or oblong face shapes) and also a long neck ( here is how to find out if you have a long or short neck), as it sits higher than the 2nd balance point and so is neck shortening. It’s on many tees, yet doesn’t flatter some body shapes so well, nor some face shapes either. This can be a tricky neckline as it’s very high and rounded in shape.
