I don’t quite get the question.

I wear all that I want, but I suppose the limitation of my body type (inverted triangle) is I cannot wear anything with straps smaller than 2” without feeling slightly self-conscious that is looks weird on my broad shoulders (my eye sees the proportions are off and then I feel very awkward all day).

Therefore, spaghetti strap, slinky sort of loose billowy and yet hanging on by a few little string strap dresses are out for me but I do have an envy of women who wear them.

I also HAVE to wear a bra because I don’t feel comfortable otherwise, but hate it when the straps show, so I can’t do anything that is backless or intricately strappy that requires a strapless bra.

Lupita Nyong’o looks FABULOUS in this dress but I could never wear it, I’d feel so self conscious without straps.

(Also, strapless bras seem quite uncomfortable and shift, I have yet to find a wireless one with soft cups that hugs my torso instead).

Lastly, strapless things are out. Must have thick straps. See above.

Although I must note that lately I’ve been experimenting with one-shoulder strap items and it is a nice compromise. I could handle that if I could find a bra option that doesn’t annoy me.
