The scoop neck is the least flattering neckline IMO: Discuss

I believe this to be true, especially for those more amply endowed, and the IM TSV inspired this thread

I actually find a scoop neckline (not too low) to be among the most flattering on me with a v-neck second best.  I really hate a crew neckline.  I find it to be very unflattering and I can't wear a turtle or mock neck either.

@Andreatoo.  I have to agree that a scoop neck is not flattering, especially if one has a round face.

I think this is too broad of a statement; it depends on many factors. It may not be your preference, but I find them flattering on many people (myself included).

It depends on the person.  Personally, I like a scoop neck.  It's very flattering on me.

 

Also, a scoop neck cotton t-shirt is a good layering piece in winter.  I can wear one under another top and no one knows it's there but me.

Scoops are very flattering on me, as well. I am not ample, though.

 

Everything @haddon9 & @tototwo said.

Hahahaha!   "Ample" would be the last word someone would use to describe me!

I am going with a crew neck as the least flattering. My favorite is a v neck.

I do best with a scoop or V neck because of my face shape.

I love a scooped neckline, and Susan Graver is the best at this. I have 3 blouses that I'm hanging onto, that should be gone, because they are so pretty on.
