Cowl Neck Tops
A: Here's a simple way to know what a particular look will do for you. Think of the ways you would describe the garment in question, and then think of the ways you would describe your own body (parts) in those same terms. If there is an overlap in the application of these terms, then you will likely enhance the effect of both aspects.
In other words, if you are plump and soft looking, and you wear a garment that has a soft full look, with a loose billowy collar or over-stuffed look, you are going to make yourself appear heavier still. By that same token, someone who is lean, tight and lithe who wears something form-fitting and slim-cut will look even slimmer and leaner than in something simply well-fitting and tailored.
So, a cowl-neck top is not really a good look for someone who is of a rounder visage or has a droopy appearance, or jowly-face (and especially not for someone who may have sagging areas such as under the chin and jaws).
Just remember that looking good and choosing the right fashions has most to do with keeping proportion and balance in mind. If you do this, you will most often make smart, flattering choices.
