A Guide To Finding Your Body Shape

Finding your body shape will enable you to get to know what looks flattering on your figure. When it comes to getting to know your body, you don’t just guess and trust your intuition, but rather look for precise answers. Our team has selected 5 most common body types and created an easy guide to help you understand your body shape.

Everyone has different body type and figure, size and shape, but it is extremely important to remember that everyBODY is beautiful! To decide whether you have an Hourglass, Apple, Pear, Rectangle or Inverted Triangle body shape, you will need to pay attention to 4 measurements: Shoulders, Bust, Waist and Hips.

Hourglass

If you have a wide-narrow-wide body ration, which means that you waist is narrower than your bust and hips, while your hips and bust have similar measurements, then you have an Hourglass body shape. Alternative name for this figure is Triangles Opposing, which visually creates an Hourglass form.
