The following are a few characteristics of an inverted triangle shape: 

-Wide shoulders 

-Big bust 

-Undefined waist

Here are some tips 

Soften shoulders & add volume at the hips: 

-Avoid wide neckline so it doesn't expand the appearance of  shoulders 

-Look for clean and uncluttered bodice designs (avoid pleating or patterns)

-Look for waist details so that will add volume to your lower body 

-Avoid tight silhouettes that emphasize your original body shape 

Necklines

V-neck: V-necklines are slim and long and reduce the length of your upper body visually 

Halter: even though halter necklines don't give you that deep and scooped look; however, it still has the effect of elongating your upper body

Asymmetric: the helps you break up your bust area vertically, therefore elongates your body shape. 

Scoop: same as the effect of a V neckline

Sleeves 

-Wide straps: better than thin or spaghetti straps as thinner straps will make your shoulder wider

-Dolman: the loose and wide sleeves creates a balanced proportion of your upper and lower body 

-Tapered long sleeves: this will not add any volume to your upper body  

-Drop shoulder: designs with cuts and slits will definitely make your shoulders slimmer
