Fall 2012 Fashion Trends for an Inverted Triangle Body Shape

September 19, 2012

Strong, athletic inverted triangles boast a broad chest and shoulders along with a tapered waist and hips. Red-hot skinny pants, fitted knits and simple shirts with standout collars will put you at the head of the pack when it comes to fall trends.

1The trend: Cozy knit-wits

The runway: Stella McCartney. When it comes to finding figure-flattering looks, color blocking is key. The patterns in this sporty sweater give the illusion of a narrower top, with the dark shades at the shoulders, pointing in to a lighter shade of gray. Black slacks dress it up. Game on!

QUIZ: Are You An Inverted Triangle?

2Your way:

A wide-necked sweater looks great on broad shoulders, and a kicky mini dress shows off those toned legs inverted triangle shapes are known for.

3Your way:

If you want to downplay your broad shoulders, try a soft V-neck sweater and skinny jeans. Chill in the air? Knot a fun printed scarf at your neck to draw attention in even more.

4Your way:

Your way: Bring balance to an inverted triangle body shape by keeping things simple on top with a same-color knit sweater set and a printed maxi skirt on bottom. The long cardigan brings the eye down to those great gams. No knit-picking here!

5The trend: Fifty shades of red

The runway: Tommy Hilfiger. Shapely legs? Show them off in hot-red leather pants in a darker shade so you’ll look trendy, not trashy. A classic, narrow-cut jacket calms things down—and slims your shoulders, too. Match made in inverted triangle heaven?

Your way: Red pants are uber-trendy this fall, and, when worn with something simple and neutral on top, they’re lovely on an inverted triangle body shape.

Want to make waves with a fun, bright red party dress this season? This boat-neck lace mini dress is sure to do the trick.

QUIZ: How Do You Feel About Your Body?

8Your way:

Watch your back, Anna Wintour. You’re bound to be the most stylish one at the office when you arrive in this gorgeous deep-red leather jacket and high-waisted skirt. Cubicle catwalk, anyone?

J.Crew Collection leather jacket, $695, and gray windowpane skirt, $425, J.Crew, Jcrew.com

9The trend: Hot under the collar

The runway: Preen. Whether you add a printed collar to a solid blouse or a solid color to a printed blouse, something interesting going on around your neck is a serious trend for fall.

10Your way:

A statement-print silk blouse is sweet and just a little sassy with a contrasting black peter pan collar.

COLUMN: What Message Are You Sending With Clothes?

11Your way:

This chic ensemble brings out an inverted triangle’s inner animalistic style. Black is, of course, slimming, and a crisp white collar commands attention away from your shoulders. Then, the animal-print mini flatters your slim hips and legs. Do you hear the call of the wild? Might as well answer it, now, huh?
