WHAT WOULD A PEAR DARE TO WEAR?

The A-Line dress is perfect for a pear shaped body. An A-line dress will start from the neck or tight fitting bodice & end up in a flaring skirt. Once you know what your body shape is (hourglass, rectangle, apple, pear, inverted triangle), choosing an outfit becomes so much easier.

Characteristics of the pear:

• The hips are wider than the shoulder

• Fat tends to accumulated on the hips and buttocks

• You tend to have an elongated waist and the legs tend to be shorter in comparison to the rest of your body

• You have a defined waist

Understanding your body shape will make you feel better & you will look good as you now know what style outfit to choose.

Your aim when choosing your next outfit will be to achieve a flattering look that accentuates your body shape strengths.

They are your shoulders, bust line area & defined waist.

A great tip to remember is downplay your hips in order to accentuate your shoulders & draw more attention to your upper body. You can also achieve this by choosing bright colors on your top half with darker colors on your bottom half.

Choose a top to emphasize the waist with several necklines like a boatneck & bardot styles. A flattering V-line top will elongate your upper torso. Shoulder pads are perfect because they align your shoulders to the waistline plus they are a trend, right now.

I recommend that your tops and jackets end either above or below the widest point of your hips and bottom. When choosing a coat for winter, go knee length.

Oh… & ladies, don’t forget to wear that good bra to accentuate your stronger areas of your upper body, if you know what I mean?
