Comparing silhouettes without rushing into body labels
| I need to choose clothes for a seated discussion on stage. We will be seated for almost the entire conversation. My full length mirror gives me only part of the picture. I have been reading about color and body type analysis while trying to understand how different style systems describe proportion. I would like to use the vocabulary to compare outfits without treating a category as a rule for every situation. The jacket hem looks different when I sit down. Comfort also matters because I need to concentrate on speaking. I can take a few seated photos before deciding. I would keep the camera position consistent for the comparison. The event photographs may show us from the side as well as the front, so I want to consider both views before making a decision. Which proportions would you compare first for this setting? |
