English term

mounded shoulders

English to French Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
Hi, I'm looking to translate the phrase "jackets with mounded shoulders" in the context of a fashion show. If it can help, reference is made to tailoring/suits elsewhere in the file.
However I cannot find any reference to what "mounded" can mean in this field. All I can guess for now is that is it could be reinforced, accentuated or prominent shoulders.

Any help/idea appreciated.

agree Chopkins : j'hésite entre votre réponse (qui est plus à la mode) et celle à Marielle (plus traditionnelle). Il faut plus de contexte...

agree Chopkins : c'est ce que je pensais au début mais en attendant plus de détails (si possible), la suggestion de FX me semble plus cohérente.
