- Pear Body Traits: Small shoulders. Your lower body is wider than your upper body — in other words, your hips are wider than your shoulders. Neat bust & waist. Your bottom is rounded and your thighs are curvy. Shapely calves.
- Your Best Assets: Shoulders, torso and flat stomach
- Your Fashion Goals: Emphasize your waist and arms, add volume to your shoulders and upper body and minimize your hips.
- Your Best Jeans: A mid-rise, balanced style will flatter your shape because it will elongate your legs. Ideally, you should search for pair of moderate skinnies. This streamlined fit creates a sleek look that will flatter your curvy zone. Be sure to stay away from super high-waisted jeans at all costs–they will shorten your legs and create a disproportioning effect.
Self Styling Tips
If your body is pear-shaped like Kim Kardashian's, then you want to minimize your lower half and focus attention upward.
- Emphasise a slim upper body.
- Create a wider shoulder line using sleeve detail or bare shoulders in a strapless or halter style to balance out the hips.
- DON'T wear clothing that draws attention to hips and thighs, such as cargo pants or print skirts.
- DO try a-line skirts that skims hips and thighs.
- DO keep hems of pants, skirts and dresses wide to balance the hips. Hem length should be on the knee or below calf.
- DO experiment with light coloured tops and dark coloured bottoms for contrast.
- DO look for boat neck tops, square and cowl necklines.
- DO wear strapless dresses to show off arms and even out proportions.
- DO try styles with ruffles on top.
- DO wear jackets that hit right above the waist.
- DO opt for pointy-toed shoes to elongate your legs.
