Would love your thoughts.

From this photo I think I look hourglass and yet I'm very flat chested with a flat rear end. I have broad shoulders with a prominent collarbone, a short body with a long line and legs. I'm not straight up and down, though I do have long limbs. Through the bust and torso I'm pretty square and I carry weight on my midsection. Fit and flare and wrap dresses look awful on me, bottoms never stay up and tend to slide, and belts make me look cylindrical.

Like many others the numbers don't seem to add up for me and different calculators label me different body types. While I don't want to get too hung up on it I definitely find the uncertainty frustrating as my conflicting features lead to conflicting advice eg. Short body, wear low rise bottoms/ carry weight on mid section, avoid low rise.
