VIDEO: What to Wear If You Have Narrow Shoulders

 

Last week, I tackled BROAD SHOULDERS, CLICK HERE to watch.

This week it is… NARROW SHOULDERS.

***

If you have narrow shoulders, the key is… create volume!

You can do this by wearing certain necklines, and/or shoulder-building, design details.

NOTE: if your shoulders are narrow, sleeve lengths will generally be an issue. Your sleeves will run long.

BEST NECKLINES:

Off-shoulder or Bardot

One-Shoulder

Portrait

Wide V-Neck

Bateaux or Boat Neck

Cold Shoulder

FLATTERING SHOULDER DETAILS:

Puff Sleeve

Shoulder Pads

Shoulder Embellishments

Epaulets

Origami Sleeve

Flutter or Ruffle Sleeve

Pleated Shoulder

    Hi Erin.. I did measure my shoulders, and they are 17 1/2 “.. So, I guess I do have narrow shoulders. My sister was WRONG, all those years ago! lol Anyway, just wanted to thank you for the video.. It is VERY helpful…….. Oh,and, I really hope your husband is doing better.. Thinking of you and your family, and sending prayers. Jill xxoo

    I don’t think I have narrow shoulders, but I need to measure to make sure. I KNOW I have wide hips.They run in my maternal side of the family, and I definitely inherited it! lol My Mom had very narrow shoulders and wide hips, but, my older sister,(who has narrow shoulders and narrow hips), always told me I looked like a football player ,bc of my broad shoulders! (She was so nice, back then! ..ha ha ) Thanks for al the great suggestions, for broad and for narrow shoulders. When I find out which I have, I will be set! 🙂 I am also wondering about what is the best way to dress, if you have a full bust line (I am 39 ” and wear 36D bra) and wide hips… (41 “).?? My waist is around 31 -32”.. I guess, basically, an hour glass figure.? Thanks so much, Erin! Bye for now…luvs ya Jill xxoo
