Fashion tips for body shapes: Pear shape

Pear shaped model
A pear shaped beauty is one who possesses
  • a wider torso or bottom
  • a smaller bust
  • a narrower shoulder
  • a well defined waistline.
A pear shaped figure should work towards highlighting her assets (her neat waistline) and balancing her top and bottom when dressing. 

TOPS
Tops should be fitted and not baggy and should end at the tops of your hips to emphasize your well defined waists. longer tops which end at your bum draw attention to your wide bum, Eye catching tops, plunging necklines draw attention away from your wide torso.


















BOTTOMS
 that covers and balances the ‘bootylicious’ body.  Find pants or jeans that are:
  • darker in color
  • boot cut/ flare shaped
  • mid-rise or high rise instead of low cut, pants should not settle above the waist line.

Fashion tips for body shapes




People come in different shapes and sizes, each possessing different attributes, flaws and assets. Dressing according to your body shape and type cannot be over emphasized. A lot of authors have talked about a lot of body shapes, but basically we have 4 body shapes, the others are usually a combination or an offshoot of the four. The 4 main body shapes are;
  • Pear shape
  • Apple shape
  • Hour glass and
  • Rectangular/ tube shape.  
PEAR SHAPE
A pear shaped beauty normally has a wider torso, a well defined waist line, a smaller bust and narrower shoulder.
In dressing, a pear shaped woman should work towards balancing out the curvy bottom and this can be achieved by wearing tops with embellished collars, drawing attention to your top part with a plunging neckline or a chunky jewelry.
