How to make your shoulders appear narrower?

Well im transgender and from female hormones have a feminine shape now, however as my bone structure would never be able to change im noticing the only problem when im dressed is my shoulders are slightly wide. What clothing is the best for me to hide or make it appear smaller. And what fashion to avoid which would make it look worse. Im not good with fashion and really need some tips. Please dont leave rude comments if u are thinking about it.

1. The things to avoid are sleeveless vests or jumpers worn over form fitting tops. That combination accentuates the amount of shoulder that is projecting beyond the sleeve opening. V neck halter tops and tops that are a lot lighter than your pants or skirts will not flatter you. Avoid little puff sleeves or ruffles etc. at the shoulders, too. Good luck!! ; ) Btw, two older actresses that had wide shoulders are Mariel Hemingway and Linda Evans (Dynasty TV series). Check out what looked good on them with an internet search. You'll have to make adjustments for the styles of today but you might find some good "looks".

3. A good deal of shoulder width in a male anatomy is due to muscle. The longer you are on hormones, the more muscle you will lose in your upper body (up to a point.) Avoid doing resistance exercises with your arms, chest & shoulders. Cut down on your caloric intake to force your body to burn muscle (protein) for fuel. Avoid sleeveless or flutter sleeve tops. Avoid anything that fits too tight around the bust. If your shoulders are muscular, you should probably stay away from tank-tops and halters as well. Unfortunately for larger Transwomen, a lot of female fashions (especially spring and summer) have exposed shoulders. Anything A-line, or with a fitted waist and looser hem will help balance out the shoulders. Sometimes, 3/4 sleeves can help because they make the arms seem shorter, and thus the upper body seems smaller. In general, wear looser, slightly oversized tops to take emphasis away from your upper body. You want your hips to appear as wide as possible, so look for jeans that flatter your hips, and long skirts (if you wear them.)
