The rectangle body shape is quite common among men and can be seen in those who are tall-slender with a straight frame. Having this particular type means your shoulders, waist and hips are of the same width. There are a wide range of styling options that come out with rectangle shape. The key to dressing a rectangular body is to create the illusion of structure by adding bulk to the shoulders and creating a slight taper down to the waist. Try wearing horizontal stripes across the shoulders and chest to broaden your upper body.
You Can Start With These Styling Tips:-
- Choice of clothing matters as it creates the illusion of curves, such as pieces with a tapered waist like blazers or jeans.
- Avoid wearing clothes that are too tight or too loose and pair up well-fitted garments which better accentuate your natural shape.
- Structured blazers and jackets help to add width to your shoulders giving out a look of a narrower waist.
- If possible try men’s scarves to add size to your neck and shoulders, whether tied or draped.
- Add some color or prints across your shoulders and chest to broaden up the upper body portion.
- To add some bulk to your frame switch to layered looks such as a button-down shirt under a crew neck sweater.
- For accessories, one can go with well-fitted belts to define waist, some patterned ties, square pockets and pair of matching yet decent shoes.
