A strong shoulder line means your shoulders are not sloping or curved, I believe. I've got wide shoulders and the wisdom here is that it helps your clothes hang better on your body, like a clothes hanger. With a slim hourglass figure, you should have lots of fun dressing yourself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-538740 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 22:38:24 +0000 Caramel 538740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What does it mean that I have a "strong shoulder line"?

You are a slim hourglass with a strong shoulder line.

Sometimes it's hard to determine by measurements alone. I prefer eyeballing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-528125 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 19:51:23 +0000 Caramel 528125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Height: 5'7'' / 169.5 cm<br /> Shoulder (all the way around): 37.8 - 38 inches / 96-97 cm<br /> Shoulder (like this: <a href="http://www.transprism.com/images/measurements/shoulderWidth.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.transprism.com/imag.....rWidth.jpg</a> ): 16.4 inches / 42 cm </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527297 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 22:36:45 +0000 Meredith1953 527297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds pearish? However a pic is really the best way to get feedback. What are your shoulder measurements? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527290 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 22:32:41 +0000 Suz 527290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your measurements are similar to mine; I am a slender hourglass with rectangle tendencies. (My hips are a bit narrower and shoulders perhaps wider). </p> <p>You want to look at the shoulder/hip relationship vs. the bust/hip relationship to determine your shape. </p> <p>As Tina hints, height will also play a role. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527266 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 22:07:18 +0000 Tina 527266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your measurements are not that different from mine, I would say you are a slender hourglass with pear tendencies. SBM is right, it is an easy shape to shop clothes for.<br /> ETA: How tall are you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527134 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:16:12 +0000 Small But Mighty 527134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The drawing looks more like a slender hourglass to me -- a shape that should make it pretty easy to find a lot of flattering clothes. Good luck!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527098 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:52:29 +0000 Caramel 527098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'll try to take another photo later then (I don't have any tight pants though..but I'll try to figure something out). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527076 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:43:30 +0000 Travelgal Nicole 527076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, yes the shape drawn is much more hour glass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527073 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:41:34 +0000 Janet 527073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's hard to say without a photo -- shoulder width comes into the equation too. The shape you've drawn looks quite hourglassy to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527071 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:39:18 +0000 Caramel 527071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sketch with the shape is from a photo (of me) with tight clothes. I drew the shape and removed the colours to see the shape easier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527064 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:34:22 +0000 Travelgal Nicole 527064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say that is a pear because of the difference between bust and hips. Hard to say without a picture to see though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-a-pear-1#post-527057 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:31:09 +0000 Caramel 527057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you help me with my body type?</p> <p>Bust: 32 inches / 81 cm (I'm a 65C in EU - it's a 30B in US and a 30C in UK)<br /> Under the bust: 28.2 inches / 72 cm<br /> Waist: 24.7 inches / 63 cm<br /> Hips: 35.5 inches / 90 cm</p> <p>When I try the body type calculator ( <a href="http://www.calculator.net/body-type-calculator.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.calculator.net/body.....lator.html</a> ) it tells me that I'm a pear, spoon or bell.
