This guide to selecting off the shoulder tops goes into detail on how to wear the top for your body shape. You'll find information on the fabric and accessories to wear with your top to make it fashionable for you.
So, in this video, I'm going to take you through the off the shoulder top and how to choose one. So, the example that I have here demonstrates very clearly that it normally has a very broad shoulder detailing. So, anyone who is very broad across the shoulder wants to be wary of wearing a big off the shoulder top because it will make you appear bigger.
However, there is one way to get around that by wearing a vest top that has a thick strap underneath which will cut through the width of your shoulders and alleviate that, so a great way of wearing it. If you're particularly big in the bust, then I would be wary also of wearing an off the shoulder top because the expanse of fabric just going across the bust line can make you appear bigger there. If you're wanting to wear a bra underneath for support, then I would recommend also wearing it with a vest top.
Otherwise, opt for a strapless bra for that extra support but being able to show off the true design of the top in revealing all of your shoulders. If you're particularly long in the neck, you might also want to wrap a scarf around that just to cut and break the length of your neck when wearing such a top. Now, this particular example here is quite figure-hugging which is great if you've got a nice slim figure.
But if you are a little fuller, then I would say opting for a jersey style that's a bit baggier and looser, will be more flattering. But you can still cinch that in with a belt just to still keep and maintain that shape and rather than it making you appear bigger than you actually are. But yes, think about the other elements of the top, but chiefly be wary that this is going to broaden you at the top.
So that's the ultimate effect that an off the shoulder top will give. So, that's just a few little tips when selecting an off the shoulder top, which hopefully, you've found useful. If you'd like to learn more about what styles suit your body shape, then please do look at my other videos. .
