[FASHION] How to wear spring jackets for your body shape


Fame Flynet Naomie Harris, Into Film Awards, March 2015

It might not feel like it but spring is on its way and it's time to ditch your heavy winter coat and swap it for something a little more light-weight.
Bond actress Naomie Harris stepped out this week for the Into Film Awards in a stunning mint green coat over her printed Peter Pilotto dress and metallic Christian Louboutin heels.
Not only was the wide-collared jacket super flattering on the star but it also shielded her from the rain. Practical and stylish!
Having felt inspired, we've scoured the high street for some of the hottest spring jackets this season and show you how you can make them work for your body shape.

Pear shape

If you have heavy hips, a fitted biker jacket is ideal for you. Wearing a colour on your top half will work as a distraction, and the structured, tailored style will help to put you in proportion.

Boyish

Don’t shy away from decorative details like frills, zippers and prints on jackets, you can really pull them off. They’ll help to add curves, which is great if you are small-busted and need a little oomph.

Curvy

A belted mac is a saviour for most figures, but especially curvaceous ones. The looser styles this season won’t cling, while the belt will nip you in at the waist. Team with a striped top for a nod to Parisian chic.
