Square neck shirts cut a straight-across, angular opening that frames the décolletage geometrically. Modern, bold and architectural.
The strong horizontal line flatters by balancing, suiting most figures with its confident geometry. It highlights the collarbones strikingly. Angular faces may prefer its structure echoed.
Pair with geometric jewelry or go bare to let the shape speak. A square-neck top with high-waisted bottoms is modern classic. It suits fashion-forward wardrobes.
When buying by neckline, try the shirt on with the undergarments you will actually wear — neckline fit changes completely with the right bra. Check that the opening lies flat without gaping or pulling, and sit down in it if you will wear it to work. Consider your jewelry box: the necklines you own should work with the necklaces you love. A neckline that frames your face beautifully is worth more than any trend.
