Inverted Triangle:

Embrace your angular shape like Teri Hatcher with this 50’s-style dress from Jigsaw. The knotted style is not only bang on trend for this season, but it will also emphasise your waist to create a curvier look. The A line shape will also help to balance your shoulders and hips.

A narrower inverted triangle like Angelina Jolie should try a wrap dress like this polka dot style from La Dress. The A line skirt will create a balance between your upper and lower body, while the deep V neck will soften your angular top half. The wrap style will define your slim waist and give a curvaceous appearance.

The benefits of this dress definitely outweigh the costs and you shouldn't have to take out a cash advance to afford it.
