Here are top-to-toe styling ideas for each of the five main men’s body shapes and the reasons behind them:

Rectangle Shape:

Top:

• Structured Jackets: Add definition to the shoulders and chest, creating a more pronounced silhouette.
• V-Neck Sweaters: Draw attention upwards, enhancing the appearance of the chest.
• Button-Up Shirts: Opt for fitted styles to highlight the torso.

Bottom:

• Slim-Fit Trousers: Create the illusion of a more defined waist and add some curves to the lower body.
• Straight-Leg Jeans: Maintain the balanced proportions without overwhelming the silhouette.

Footwear:

• Chukka Boots: Provide a subtle lift and add a touch of sophistication to the overall look.

Why:
For a Rectangle shape, the aim is to create the illusion of a more defined waist and add dimension to the upper body. Structured jackets and fitted tops achieve this, while slim-fit trousers and straight-leg jeans add some curves to the lower body.

Here are the most suitable color combinations to flatter each body shape:

Rectangle Shape:

• Top: Lighter colors like pastels and softer tones help add dimension to the chest and shoulders.
• Bottom: Darker shades create contrast and add depth to the lower body.

Example Combination:

• Light Blue Shirt (Top)
• Charcoal Gray Trousers (Bottom)
