Muscle Tee – How to use?
There aren’t many secrets, nor are there any rules to adhere to the new Muscle Tee trend. In fact, as previously stated, each person has an individual style. Therefore, the idea is to wear the t-shirt with clothes and accessories that are part of your wardrobe.
However, this does not mean that everything matches the piece, of course there are some options that help the look to be harmonious, such as sneakers, pantaloon jeans and high heels. Furthermore, try mixing the blouse with vibrant colors and trendy prints.
Tips – biotypes
By having more elongated ends, the muscle tee increases the shoulder region, therefore, the piece is not recommended for people with the inverted triangle biotype (wide shoulders and flat hips).
But, if you still want to invest in the piece, you can adapt it so that the fit is lighter and doesn’t mark your shoulders so much. Our tip is to mix the t-shirt with a more voluminous bottom, such as pleated skirts.
