Your Shape: Diamond

What to Wear:

  • Cowl, scoop, v-neck, and styles exposing the neck
  • Sleeves 3/4, 5/8 and bracelet-length
  • Details designed to draw the attention to your shoulders and face – earrings, necklaces etc
  • Monochromatic looks. Un-tucked tops. Flat-front pants
  • Princess seams, dropped waist, blouson styled tops
  • 'Peak' empire waist. High slits. Straight, tiered, tulip and trumpet skirts



What not to Wear:

  • Turtlenecks or styles that cover-up neckline
  • Designs with horizontal stripes, heavy pleating, ruffles, or extra details at the midsection
  • Super-clingy and very fitted styles. Full-length sleeves
  • Pants with front pleats. Wide leg and baggy styles

About the Diamond shape:

You have a fabulous frame! Your face, neck, and bust are proportionate to each other and your balanced thighs, shapely legs, and amazing arms accent your voluptuous assets. The greatest concern you have is your midsection and the challenges you face are extra weight around the mid-section area, which sometimes include the "love handles". Often, this means you don't have a defined waistline. Another challenge is finding a balance between your broad hips and generous thighs while enhancing the flatness of your bottom and elongating your slender lower legs.
And with all the amazing styles available to complement your figure, you'll be happy to be called the diamond of all shapes!
