Best Jacket for Your Body Type

Jackets for hourglass body types

As an hourglass, you’re definitely not lacking in curves. So, how do you show off your voluptuous shape in a bulky jacket? Just like with clothing, you want to emphasize your waist — the smallest part of your body.

According to Rygorsky, an hourglass figure should look for a belted knee-length style. “It’s important to emphasize the waistline with an hourglass figure, otherwise your shape can get lost in a jacket,” she says. And if you already own a coat, but it didn’t come with a belt, don’t be afraid to add your own. Rygorsky says, “a wide belt looks especially good over a winter coat.”

Our jacket picks for you:

Karl Lagerfeld for Impulse Coat, Long Sleeve Tweed, $99: This belted tweed jacket will show off your small waist.

ASOS Fit and Flare Coat with Belt, $157.14: Not only is this ’70s-inspired coat super cute, but it also uses a wide belt to cinch the waist.
