For all intents and purposes, there are three basic body shapes used to talk about fashion. There's the pear shaped figure (upper body is smaller than lower half), athletic figure (straight, toned, square body), and apple shaped figure (upper body is larger than lower half). We all know our measurements change over a lifetime, but our basic shape is a product of bone structure that remains constant. | For all intents and purposes, there are three basic body shapes used to talk about fashion.

#Dress for a Pear Shaped Figure: The pear is the most common female body type. You can call yourself a pear if your upper body is noticeably smaller than your lower body. If you were to gain five pounds, four of them would go to your hips and thighs. You may have a long or slender neck, sloping or narrow shoulders, narrow back, small to medium bust, defined waist or full calves. You definitely have very curvy hips, thighs and seat. As a pear you should always emphasize your face, neck, bust, waist and arms. You want to bring the eye up and broaden the shoulder line, which can be done by wearing wide neck colorful tops. Your upper body is your best asset, so wear semi-fitted and tailored plus size tops. Necklines like cowl necks and square necklines will help broaden your shoulders. You want to maintain focus above the waist so use flowing comfortable bottoms to elongate your lower half. Straight skirts are your friend and Maxi dresses look amazing on pear shapes. | #Dress for a Pear Shaped Figure: The pear is the most common female body type.
