Discover through skeletal diagnosis
A bone structure diagnosis is a method of finding the fashion that suits you best by analyzing your natural bone structure (lines), style, and other characteristics and classifying them into three major bone structure types.
The results of the bone structure diagnosis are classified into three types: " straight bone structure type ," " wave bone structure type ," and " natural bone structure type ."
Since you can find out which materials and designs suit each bone structure type, even fashion novices can find the fashion style and items that suit them.
In addition, skeletal type is not affected by fluctuations in weight or age, so the same diagnostic results can be used no matter how old you are.
Even if you buy clothes with the latest trends in mind, or copy a stylish outfit you see in a magazine, it doesn't necessarily mean that it will suit you if your bone structure or body type is different from that of the model.
Learn about the characteristics of each skeletal type and see which one applies to you!
By the way, if you are going to check it, prepare a full-length mirror and do the diagnosis together with a family member or friend, you will get a more accurate result.
■ Three bone types
Straight bone type
■ Characteristics of straight bone structure type
- I feel more thickness and center of gravity in my upper body than in my lower body.
- The hands have a smooth overall appearance
- The bust has volume and a sense of definition.
- Rounded hips and high waist
- It's easy to build muscle
- When you gain weight, fat comes from your stomach
The straight body type is considered to have a center of gravity at the top, and is characterized by a short neck and a thick décolleté area, which gives the upper body a voluminous appearance.
My hands are relatively small but thick, the backs of my hands and knuckles are smooth and the bony protrusions are small, so overall they are not very noticeable.
The bust and hips are voluminous and well-defined, and because they are positioned high, they have the distinctive feature of appearing three-dimensional when viewed from the side.
For this reason, they are also said to have a glamorous foreign body type, and many of them exude femininity and sexiness that other types cannot match!
People with a straight skeletal type are said to be able to build muscle easily with just a little bit of strength training.
In particular, it tends to help develop abdominal muscles, giving you a beautiful waistline and a toned, well-defined body.
However, you should be careful because when you gain weight, fat tends to come from your stomach.
This is due to a specific cause of the straight bone type, where the center of gravity is biased upward.
When you gain weight, fat starts to accumulate in the following order: stomach ⇨ outer upper arms ⇨ face, which gives you an "apple-shaped" appearance.
The fashions that suit people with a straight body type are " simple outfits using crisp shirts " and " elegant outfits that focus on high-quality materials such as wool and leather ."
If it's too tight, it will emphasize your body lines and make you look sexy, and if it's oversized, it will make you look fat, so the key is to choose a size that fits you perfectly.
Skeleton wave type
■ Characteristics of the wave-shaped skeleton
- The upper body is slender and the center of gravity is in the lower body.
- Average-sized hands compared to other bone types
- Even if my bust is large, it looks small
- Wide pelvis and flat hip line
- It seems hard to build muscle
- When you gain weight, fat accumulates in the lower body, mainly in the thighs.
The wave-shaped skeleton type is considered to be a lower-center-of-gravity type, and in contrast to the straight-shaped skeleton type, it has a slender upper body, a long, slender neck, and prominent collarbones, making it appear thin when viewed from the side.
Their hands tend to be average-sized compared to other body types, with less pronounced wrist bones and knuckles.
Because the upper body is slender, the bust may appear small.
This is because the center of gravity is lower, which is unique to the wave-type skeleton, and the bust position is low, which naturally widens the verge line, which is the circumference of the lower part of the bust.
As the verge line widens, the flesh tends to sag, making the bust cup appear smaller than it actually is.
The pelvis is wide and the hip line is flat.
Because the hip bones in the front and the protruding bones on the sides are prominent, it tends to give the body a square shape.
People with a wave-type skeleton tend to have difficulty building muscle.
Many people think that "people with a wave-type skeleton find it difficult to build muscle," but this is a mistake. Anyone can increase their muscle mass with a proper diet and muscle training.
The reason it is said to be difficult to build muscle is because the skin tends to be thin.
People with a wave skeletal type may actually have more muscle mass, but because the skin on their upper body is thin, they appear to have less muscle.
The fashion that suits people with a wave-shaped frame is " outfits that use soft, soft materials "♡
Wearing materials that have a furry or warm feel, such as velvet, suede, or fur, will highlight your natural femininity.
Also, since your body is slim, try adding volume with a soft design.
Flared skirts and voluminous tulle materials can also cover your pelvis and lower body, which can be a bit of a concern.
The article below introduces recommended skirt outfits for each season and age group, so if you want to become even slightly more stylish and find the perfect outfit to suit you, be sure to read on!
Natural bone structure type
■ Characteristics of natural bone structure type
- There is no imbalance in the center of gravity, and the overall feel is solid and bony.
- Your hands tend to look large for your height
- Busts tend to be average in size
- The collarbone is large and prominent, and the joints and muscles of the hands are prominent.
- May appear muscular or overweight
- When you gain weight, you gain fat all over your body
Unlike the straight and wavy bone types, the natural bone type is characterized by a body with no bias in the center of gravity.
They tend to have strong joints, bones, and muscles, and have a stylish physique.
Because of its presence, it is said to be a body type that is common among models.
Hands tend to appear large in relation to height, and the knuckles and wrist bones tend to appear relatively large and prominent, as do other joints and collarbones in the neck.
Compared to the straight and wavy bone types, the bust position and softness tend to be intermediate, and the size is average.
If you have a natural bone structure, gaining weight can make your overall body look larger.
Also, when you gain weight, it doesn't happen in specific parts, but rather the fat starts to accumulate evenly all over your body.
It is difficult to gain fat in the buttocks or chest, but this can make you look cylindrical, so you need to be careful not to gain too much weight.
The fashion that suits such a natural type of body type is " coordinates using stiff and sturdy materials such as cotton, denim, and corduroy "♪
Since your body frame is generally strong, it's a good idea to choose a size that allows you to relax your shoulders, such as an oversized or loose fit!
Be careful, as a silhouette that is too tight can make you look bulky, and items that are too short can make the clothes look small, which can create an overall imbalance.
Find out through a personal color diagnosis
A personal color diagnosis is a method that analyzes the natural color of your hair, eyes, skin, etc. to determine the colors that suit you best.
This is a recommended diagnostic method for those who don't know what clothes suit them best!
In personal color diagnosis, people are broadly classified into four types, based on " yellow base " which has healthy skin with a yellowish tint, and " blue base " which has an attractive pinkish transparency.
Recently, there are diagnostic tests that are subdivided into 16 types, so if you want to find a color that suits you best, it's a good idea to have a professional check you.
However, unlike bone structure diagnosis, personal color diagnosis is said to be subject to change with age, so you will need to undergo the diagnosis several times every few years.
When doing a self-check, it is important to do it without makeup and looking in the mirror .
Getting the opinion of a third party, such as a friend or family member, can help you get more accurate results.
Here are the four main types:
■ Four personal colors
- Spring type (yellow-based spring type)
- Summer type (cool summer type)
- Autumn type (yellow-based autumn type)
- Winter type (cool winter type)
Spring type (yellow-based spring type)
■ Features of the spring type
- Hair: Light brown color
- Eyes: Light brown
- Skin: Creamy skin with a yellowish tint, reddish skin, and a healthy complexion
- Lips: Pink
Spring types have attractive, yellowish, light skin.
Their eyes are light brown, and they often give off a cute and friendly impression.
It also gives the lips and cheeks a healthy glow, making you appear younger.
For those of you who are spring types, we recommend fashion that uses bright yellowish colors!
Wearing pastel or colorful colors will instantly brighten up your pretty face.
Small patterns such as small floral patterns and polka dot patterns are especially recommended.
Let's bring out a cute and fresh image!
On the other hand, it is best to avoid wearing dull or dark colors as they will make you look unhealthy.
Summer type (cool summer type)
■ Characteristics of the summer type
- Hair: Soft black or rose-reddish brown
- Eyes: Dark brown with low contrast to the whites of the eyes
- Skin: bluish pink beige
- Lips: bluish pink
The summer type is characterized by translucent pink-beige skin.
Her eyes are dark brown, and the contrast with the whites of her eyes is weak, giving her a gentle look.
Also, summer types tend to have a calm and clean impression, so bright tones, pale bluish tones, and pastel colors are a great match!
If you choose a low-contrast outfit, you'll have a more elegant look.
On the other hand, be careful with outfits that are too bright or have a strong contrast, as they may overpower the overall color of your face.
Warm and beige colors can wash out the color of your face and make you look pale, so try to wear them on bottoms or bags that are away from your face.
For summer types, we recommend delicate lace and high-quality chiffon materials.
Use it proactively whether on or off duty to create a mature look.
Autumn type (yellow-based autumn type)
■ Characteristics of the Autumn type
- Hair: Deep dark brown
- Eyes: deep greenish brown
- Skin: Matte ochre
- Lips: Orange beige
The biggest appeal of the Autumn type is its healthy, matte ochre skin tone.
The matte, fine-grained skin gives off a mature look and a sexiness that no other type can match.
Many of them have an exotic impression and their greenish-brown eyes are striking.
Autumn types like this tend to look good in fashion with a deep yellow tint!
The calm earth colors give off a mature and intelligent vibe.
On the other hand, pastel and bluish colors make your face look dull, so try to incorporate them into items such as bags that are farther away from your face.
Be careful with bright colors as they can make your face look harsh.
If you want to add an accent, try using an oriental safari or animal print to highlight your charm and stand out from the crowd.
You can look cool even in dark-toned fashion, and stand out from the crowd at girls' nights or lunches with friends.
Winter type (cool winter type)
■ Winter type
- Hair: Blue or transparent colors such as violet, lavender, and greige
- Eyes: Black with a strong contrast to the whites of the eyes
- Skin: Pure pink or ochre
- Lips: Rose
Winter types tend to have a strong, imposing presence.
Skin tones range from pure white pink to healthy ochre.
Their eyes are black, creating a clear contrast with the whites of their eyes, so black is said to be the only color that suits them.
People like this winter type are very good at fashion with a trendy or cool style!
Adding contrast with monochrome or high-contrast outfits will create an even more stylish look.
However, be careful as dull or pale, dull colors can make your complexion look pale.
Warm and orange colors may not suit your face, so it is safer to choose cool colors with a bluish tint .
Large and striking patterns also look great, so be bold and try them out to make an impact!
Find out by face type diagnosis
Face type diagnosis is a method of classifying your face into eight types based on factors such as facial contours, balance of facial features, and three-dimensionality.
You will be able to understand the impression of your face and the fashion style that suits you, and you will be able to find outfits that will make you look even more attractive.
Face type diagnosis is classified into two types: " adult face " with long faces and " child face " with short faces, and each of these is further classified into four types.
By combining it with a bone structure diagnosis and personal color diagnosis, you can find a fashion that suits you best.

She is often mistaken for someone younger than her age, and has an innocent and friendly air about her.
In addition, the face has few bumps and is round and flat, giving it a very feminine impression.
One of the points is that her cuteness does not fade even as she ages.
For those cute types, we recommend coordinating with soft, rounded silhouettes to match your curvaceous appearance.
Try incorporating a flared skirt or a chiffon blouse into your outfit.
However, be careful as boyish outfits such as a T-shirt and jeans can make you look even younger.
If you want to put together a casual look, adding just one feminine item will make it look natural for adult women.
Active cute type
■ Characteristics of the Active Cute type
- Characteristics: Lively and friendly
- Facial generation: Child-like
- Face shape: Curvy and round overall

As the name suggests, many people with this type of personality are seen as active and outdoorsy, and they are also known for easily making a good impression on both men and women.
Also, being seen as friendly is also attractive, so delicate lace tops and elegant gathered skirts are her forte.
On the other hand, mature oriental patterns and cool monochrome outfits can make your face look dull, so stick to accessories that are placed away from your face.

Fashion that accentuates delicate lines with tight ribbed knits and skinny pants also highlights femininity and is great!
However, feminine types, who have an appealing feminine impression, may end up looking mismatched if they coordinate with a mannish jacket or boyish denim.
If you want to look cool, try pairing it with a lace top and heels to add a feminine touch to a masculine piece.

For such cool types, simple outfits such as dress shirts and V-neck tops can be combined with sophisticated materials to create a cool look.

Keeping the area around your face especially simple will help you achieve a balanced look.

If you're a soft and elegant type, you'll look good in both elegant flared skirts and crisp pants.
High-quality materials and a firm texture create a luxurious look without being overly decorative.
If you add too many accessories, it will look overdone, so try to keep it simple.

Find it from the silhouette line
Silhouette line refers to the silhouette, design, body shape, style, etc. when wearing clothes.
It is also used to express the silhouette of the hem of a jacket, slacks, or skirt.
By combining outfits while keeping your silhouette line in mind, you can create a more feminine and stylish silhouette.
Also, it can cover up areas you are concerned about and create a slimming effect , so be sure to remember this.
There are over 100 different types of silhouette lines, but here we will introduce six classic silhouette lines represented by letters of the alphabet.
■ Six silhouette lines
- A-line silhouette
- I-line silhouette
- H-line silhouette
- O-line silhouette
- Y-line silhouette
- X-line silhouette
A-line silhouette
An A-line silhouette is a silhouette characterized by a small, tight upper body that widens towards the lower body.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "A."
This is suitable for those who have a slender upper body but are concerned about the volume of their lower body.
It doesn't emphasize the contrast too much, so it creates a casually feminine look.
When wearing an A-line silhouette, it's best to choose something that fits snugly around the upper body and is as short as possible.
For the lower body, it is a good idea to choose items that widen from top to bottom, such as wide pants or flared skirts.
The key is to show off slender parts such as your ankles and wrists so as not to give the impression that you are "hiding your figure"!
I-line silhouette
An I-line silhouette is a well-defined silhouette that emphasizes vertical lines.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "I."
It has no overall volume or firmness, so it makes you look slimmer from top to bottom.
It gives an overall vertical impression and is expected to have the effect of making you look slimmer, so it is suitable for those who are concerned about their stomach area or who have a cylindrical body type with little volume in the chest or buttocks.
The I-line silhouette is said to be the "basic way to make yourself look slimmer," and its appeal is that it not only has a great slimming effect but is also suitable for any body type!
Taller people can expect to look more stylish and model-like, while shorter people can look taller with a vertical effect, and those who are concerned about their chubby figure can also look smart and cool.
When wearing an I-line silhouette, choose items that fit just right on the upper body and show off your slim figure on the lower body, such as skinny pants!
Also, a long cardigan that creates an I-line silhouette just by putting it on is also great.
Long cardigans can easily hide areas of concern, so if you're not sure what to wear, it's a good idea to give them a try!
H-line silhouette
The H-line silhouette is a silhouette that does not emphasize the shoulders, bust, waist, or hips, but subtly accentuates the waist shape with a belt or ribbon.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "H."
It covers your body shape without revealing too much of your body lines, so it is suitable for those who are concerned about being chubby or stocky.
When wearing an H-line silhouette, even if you're not good at fashion, it's best to start with a dress, which will make you look stylish just by wearing it.
Pair it with simple sandals for a sophisticated casual look, or add heels and accessories for a sophisticated elegance.
O-line silhouette
An O-line silhouette is a silhouette that is put together using fluffy, oversized or big silhouette items on both the top and bottom.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "O."
It is suitable for those who are concerned about body fat around the stomach and thighs, or those who are concerned about the volume of their chest.
When wearing an O-line silhouette, it is best to choose loose tapered pants that gradually become narrower from the thighs to the ankles.
It gives off a relaxed feel that is unique to the O-line silhouette, while stylishly covering your figure.
However, if you wear a baggy outfit all over your body, it will look unfashionable, so be careful not to overdo it!
Try to combine pieces so that they taper towards your feet, creating an egg-shaped silhouette that gives weight to the center of your body!
Y-line silhouette
The Y-line silhouette is the opposite of the A-line silhouette, as it gives volume to the upper body and keeps the lower body slim and slender.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "Y."
It is also sometimes called the " V-line silhouette ."
Suitable for those who are concerned about the volume of their upper body.
When wearing a Y-line silhouette, it's important to create a contrast between your upper and lower body!
The contrast between the upper and lower body creates a slimming effect.
Choose items with a boxy silhouette that has an overall angular silhouette and no waistline, or jackets or outerwear that are more voluminous than your lower body, and wear skinny pants or other slim bottoms for your lower body.
X-line silhouette
An X-line silhouette is a silhouette with wide shoulders, a cinched waist with a belt or ribbon, and a flared skirt.
As the name suggests, when viewed from the front, the silhouette resembles the letter "X."
By the way, for men, the "H-line silhouette" is sometimes called the "X-line silhouette," but the X-line silhouette is a silhouette unique to women.
For women, the name of the silhouette varies depending on whether the shoulders and skirt hem are flared.
It is suitable for those with broad shoulders that make them appear stocky, or for those with a glamorous figure with voluminous breasts and buttocks.
You can fully show off your feminine look and feel.
In addition, the contrast between the waist and the rest of the body will make your waist appear higher and improve your figure!
When wearing an X-line silhouette, try choosing a voluminous skirt with a full hemline and a short top!
If you're wearing a long top, tuck it in at the waist and tighten it with a belt or ribbon.
When wearing a dress to create an X-line silhouette, be sure to pay attention to the width of your shoulders and the shape of your waist.
It creates a beautiful, sharp X-line silhouette.
88 Discovered through diagnosis
The 88 diagnosis is a diagnosis that helps you find the fashion that suits you best by combining three diagnostic methods: " Personal Color Diagnosis ," " 22 Taste Image Diagnosis ," and " Wardrobe Diagnosis ."
Simply put, it is a diagnostic method that allows you to analyze what suits you based on each person's "appearance" and "inner self (temperament)."
It is said that by gaining a deeper understanding of your own appearance and inner self, you can pursue even more attractive fashion.
By combining the "4 types" from the personal color diagnosis with the "22 tastes" from the 22 taste image diagnosis, you can find the fashion style that suits you best.
The name "88 Diagnosis" comes from the fact that a total of " 88 different fashion styles " can be found through "4 types x 22 tastes."
The diagnosis procedure is as follows: Personal color diagnosis ⇨ 22 taste image diagnosis ⇨ Wardrobe diagnosis .
The first step, "Personal Color Diagnosis," will check the colors that suit you best.
Next, the "22 Taste Image Diagnosis" will help you check what kind of personality and atmosphere you have.
By checking your own deep psychological preferences, you can see the difference between "taste that suits you" and "taste that you like."
This allows you to consider the balance between what suits you and what you like.
Finally, the "Wardrobe Diagnosis" will help you find out which of your dozens of clothes look best on you based on the results of the personal color diagnosis and the 22 taste image diagnosis.
There may be times when you find that some clothes don't suit you as well as you imagined, such as the color not suiting you, or the shape or design not suiting you.
In this way, compared to other diagnostic tests that only find fashion that suits you based on your appearance, the 88 Diagnostic also analyzes your inner personality and preferences, so you can find a fashion style that better suits your character.
If you feel that the results of your bone structure diagnosis or personal color diagnosis are inconsistent with your actual preferences, you may want to use the 88 diagnosis to find clothes that suit you.
Find it on social media

Find fashion that highlights your body's charm points
When you don't know what kind of fashion suits you, one way to find out is to find fashion that brings out the best in your body.
Everyone has a different appearance, so it's best to emphasize your own charming points to gain more confidence.
For example, if you are slender, it would be a good idea to accentuate your slender figure by wearing a tight skirt or a V-neck top that emphasizes your vertical lines.
If you have long legs, you can accentuate them with short bottoms and heels.
By highlighting your charm points, you can bring out your charm even more.
However, if you overdo it, you may look vulgar or over-dressed, so try to incorporate fashion that brings out your charming points while keeping the overall balance in mind.
Find fashion that can cover your body weaknesses and complexes
While everyone has strengths, they also have weaknesses, weaknesses they want to hide, and complexes.
If your physical weaknesses or insecurities are exaggerated, no matter how good your fashion looks, you will lose confidence and feel down.
If you want to find a fashion that suits you, it's a good idea to wear clothes that cover parts of your body that you're concerned about.
For example, if you are concerned about the thickness of your lower body, wearing a flared skirt or loose pants will help you not notice it.
If you want to hide the thickness of your upper arms, a top with flared or puff sleeves will subtly cover them while still looking stylish.
However, when covering areas of concern, it is important to achieve a good sense of looseness and balance.
If you choose a top with a high neck because you are concerned about your chest area, it may actually emphasize its size.
If you have broad shoulders and wear puff sleeves or voluminous sleeves, you may end up looking even bulkier and end up with " Gundam-style shoulders ."
In such cases, you can make yourself look slender by accentuating your vertical lines with a V-neck collar or accessories.
