How Do I Select the Ideal Sleeve Length?

When choosing the sleeve length for your shirts and tops, you should consider the shape of your arms and body. For instance, a straight designed cap sleeve shirt will make your arms appear fuller and a sleeve that ends at your bust will make your arms appear longer. A 3/4th sleeve top for women can make your arms seem slimmer and your legs longer.

Different Types of Necklines

• Boat neck
• Crew neck
• Scoop neck
• Collar neck
• V-neck and deep v-neck/plunging neckline
• Keyhole neckline
• Surplice neckline
• Sweetheart neckline
• High neck/turtle neck
• Halter neck

How Do I Select the Right Neckline for My Body Type?

Your facial shape along with the length of your neck can help you choose a more flattering top. Having broad or narrow shoulders, the size of your chest, torso and hips also plays a role in figuring out what goes well with your body type. Wearing shirts and tops with a v-neck helps to elongate round faces while a boat neck looks great on someone with a narrower face. A crew neck style will compliment someone with a short neck and individuals with broad shoulders will look even more flattering choosing a top with a wider neckline for balance.
