Whatever the current season might be, every woman must know what the best clothing for her silhouette is. Although in autumn – winter the shapes of our bodies seem to go unnoticed, it is always adequate to know what coats correspond to each feminine figure, so coming next you will know some of the models that fit each silhouette, being this the stellar garment of the coming months, and that will mark a beautiful appropriate look.
For small and thin figures, extremely long coats should be avoided, because they will only make their legs look shorter. The stylist Carolina Montenegro assures that for petit women, third quarter coats will be their best choice. “The coat can be one-layered, and not very long, at about the beginning of the legs.”
On the other hand, the specialist Claudia Illanes explains that if you have a proportionately small figure, when too many layers are added, shortness becomes more notorious, so what’s ideal is to look for a coat tight at the waist, with a round neckline, avoiding big buttons and wide pockets.
For women with a pear-shaped body, or better known for having wide hips, they’ll have to use models that direct the gaze in the upper part. “Coats with shoulder pads, big necks or with hair, middle-sized buttons and closed all the way up will balance the body”.
In the case of women whose upper torso is wider than their lower one, the rule is inverse than what applies to pear-shaped women. Instead of drawing attention towards the upper part, their need urges them to focalize the looks towards the lower part. Coats with wide skirts, wide pockets and semi-long cuts are perfect for this coming Autumn – Winter season.
If you have a proportional figure with your shoulders, waist and hips, we are dealing with a straight silhouette. For this case, experts say that the best thing is to use fitted coats, with cuts that create new curves in your appearance. “A coat with a belt or a trench coat are good choices, although a trapezius shaped one can also be used.”
For women with extra weight, dark colors should be used, and avoid the use of stamped coats. Regarding the length, you can choose one that reaches the half of the upper leg, and with a thin fabric neck. Layers should also be omitted for this kind of silhouette. The best thing will always be choosing what is known as a clean coat: no skits, with minimum details and in neutral colors.
When women are tall and thin, there are no limits at the time of wearing coats. Their bodies allow for a wide variety of styles of coats, which can become a great advantage, because this implies that their appearance won’t be affected. Montenegro adds that the ‘oversized’ styles, which are trendy during the end of the year, are allowed thanks to the height of this kind of women.
