The science of male body shapes goes back a long way, yet they're not as widely known (or spoken about) as female body shapes.
Below we'll fill you lads in on the science of the male form by fitting the body into three different groups.
The Ectomorph - Rectangle
Matt Smith is an Ectomorph. He is tall and slim with narrow shoulders and thin legs.
AVOID
-Double breasted pieces.
-Large geometric prints that mimic the rectangular shape.
-Sleeveless pieces (unless they're used for layering).
YES TO
-Scarves and circular necklines to broaden the shoulders.
-Layering, eg shirts and fine knits can make the chest seem bigger.
-Prints and colouring blocking.
