Are You a Rectangle Body Shape?


Rectangle shaped women are straight from top to bottom, and tend to like to use clothes to create curve in their figure.


If you have a Rectangle Body Shape you:

  • have shoulders and hips that are equal width 
  • waist is in line with shoulders and hips (little to no definition in your waist)
  • tend to be muscular
  • likely have an athletic looking figure
  • may feel like you would like a few more curves in your figure


Style Tips for the Rectangle Body Shape:

  • use clothing to create curves in your figure
  • menswear inspired clothing will tend look and feel great on your body
  • bring attention to straight hips with patterns, and details
  • look for styles that are cut straight, like your figure
  • angular clothing and accessories will be best on you


Clothing and Accessories that will be easiest for you to wear:

  • pants are you best friend, and usually feel easier to wear than skirts or dresses for you
  • if you also have a long torso, use belts to create a waist
  • shorts are a great way to show off your legs, without having to wear a skirt
  • rectangle shaped accessories will feel really good on you 
  • shoes with pointed or square toes will be most comfortable, rather than a round toe shoe


Look for an outfit that will flatter a rectangle figure coming at the end of the week!


If this shape doesn't sound like you, one of these other body shapes might feel more relatable: Circle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle, Hourglass, or Standard.
