title: Shoulder slope
|
|

|
|
|
|
The **shoulder slope** measurement is an indicator for the amount with which your shoulder slopes downward, measured in degrees.
|
|
|
|
To measure your shoulder slope, you need to determine the angle at which your shoulder line slopes downward.
|
|
|
|
A good way to measure your shoulder slope is to take
|
|
a selfie and rotate it until your shoulder line is horizontal.
|
|
|
|
The number of degrees you had to rotate is your shoulder slope.
|
|
|
|
:::note
|
|
|
|
Almost all people have a slightly different shoulder slope on both sides.
|
|
That's because your dominant arm is more pronounced.
|
|
|
|
Unless the different is huge, best not to worry about it.
|
|
It won't show up for casual garments, and for formal wear, it's better to add
|
|
asymmetric shoulder padding, rather than create an asymmetric pattern.
