Hello Michelle,

Thank you for reaching out with such a great question! I understand how tricky it can be to balance broader shoulders while creating a feminine silhouette. The good news is, with the right clothing choices, you can easily downplay the shoulder area and draw attention to other parts of your figure. Here are a few tips to help:

V-Necks and Scoop Necks – Tops and dresses with V-necks or scoop necklines are perfect for visually narrowing your shoulders. These necklines draw the eye downward, elongating your torso and creating a softer, more feminine look.

Sleeve Choices – Avoid shoulder pads or puff sleeves, which can add volume to your upper body. Instead, opt for cap sleeves, dolman sleeves, or off-the-shoulder styles. These designs soften the shoulder area without drawing attention to it.

Fit and Flare – A well-fitted waist can shift focus away from your shoulders. Dresses or tops that cinch at the waist and flare out at the hips help create a curvier, more balanced silhouette.

Darker Colors on Top – Wearing darker colors or solid shades on your upper body and lighter or brighter colors on your lower body can help balance proportions. This will naturally draw attention away from your shoulders.

A-Line and Flowy Bottoms – Pairing your tops with A-line skirts or wide-leg pants adds volume to your lower half, balancing out broader shoulders.

Experimenting with these styles can make a huge difference! Remember, it’s all about finding what works best for you and makes you feel confident and feminine. I hope these tips help you feel amazing in any outfit!

All the best,

Katie
