V NECK & THE TRAPEZOID NECKLINE

By -
The V neckline is formed by two diagonal lines from the shoulders that meet on the chest creating a V shape. The depth of the V can vary, ranging from demure styles to plunging. The surplice version of this neckline (known as a portrait neckline which will be expatiated on subsequently) is an alternative. The V may also be truncated by a small bottom edge, forming a trapezoid.

Also, because of its name "Jewel", most jewel neckline clothes are already embellished at the neckline giving it a jeweled look. A jewel neck is a plain, basic neckline that is rounded and reaches just above the collarbone. The jewel neck was named after its ability to showcase a piece of jewelery such as a  pendant  or brooch against the fabric, so that the eye is drawn upward to the jewelery and the face. Jewel necks are featured on a wide variety of both men’s and women’s garments, including T-shirts, sweaters, and dresses.
