Layering to fit and flatter is all about enhancing your shape while staying stylish and cozy. For Hourglass shapes, focus on defining the waist with belts or tailored layers, avoiding oversized pieces that hide your curves. Apple shapes can elongate their silhouette with longline jackets and open-front layers, steering clear of cropped or bulky tops. Pear shapes should balance wider hips with bold patterns or structured tops, choosing A-line coats and avoiding heavy layers on the bottom. Inverted Triangle shapes benefit from lightweight layers on top and added volume on the lower half with flared bottoms or pleated skirts, skipping shoulder pads or bulky details. Lastly, Rectangle shapes can create curves with belted coats, textured fabrics, and cropped jackets paired with high-waisted bottoms, while avoiding boxy or overly tight looks. The right layers to create shape rather than bulk will add an ultra polished appeal to your ensembles.
