Which coat will be most flattering on your body type?


Finding the right size is important, and most coats can be tailored or altered a bit. You can usually have the hem shortened, the sleeves shortened or let down a bit and have shaping darts tailored to you figure as well. But finding outerware that is flattering is about more than just size; you'll want to start with a shape that works well with your figure.


1. If you would like your coat to help you look taller, try a length that is no longer than an inch above your knee.


2. If you need a little help creating curves, try a belted coat. It will create a feminine shape


3. If your worried about looking top heavy, go with a single breasted coat or jacket.


4. If your worried about looking bottom heavy, go for an A-Line shape.


5. If you have broad shoulders or large breasts, look for a V-neck


Now buy that coat you've been eyeing!!!
