So if you're shoulders and hips are equidistant from your waist, you are hourglass. But if there's more distance between waist and hips, you're pear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-700170 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 14:32:02 +0000 Mo 700170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think Suz might have seen the 34.5 measurement first and not the 39. I know it confused me. You definitely have a defined waist. I share similar stats, except my hips are a tad smaller, and I'm an hourglass. Thought I was a pear for years, but my weight seems to be leaving my hips in favor of my waist since I turned 40 lol!<br /> If you can link to a pic somewhere it would help a bunch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-700140 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 14:10:00 +0000 karachitee195 700140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks ladies but how can i have rectangular tendencies when my waist is more than 10 inch smaller than my hips </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-700111 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 13:18:49 +0000 Suz 700111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It actually sounds like you are a small busted hourglass with possible rectangle tendencies - shoulders and hips about the same and a waist but not a sharply defined one. But pictures tell the real story. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-700040 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 10:59:25 +0000 April 700040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KC195 -- the measurement you want is the width of your shoulders, waist, and hips straight across the front, rather than using a measuring tape to go around. A picture is better (standing up straight in something form-fitting such as a cami and leggings), but measuring across can help as well. </p> <p>For example, I know that my shoulders are a full 30% wider than my hips going straight across the front, and my waist across the front is not very different from my hips -- hence, I'm an Inverted Triangle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-700029 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 10:28:22 +0000 Lyn D. 700029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let's see a pic, if you can?<br /> I would actually guess at pear with your measurements, because your chest area is not particularly wide? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-699999 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 07:59:33 +0000 Irene 699999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it's better if you post a photograph, because this is a matter of visuals. If you do not want to show your face, which is completely understandable, you can chop it off or paint it over.</p> <p>you do sound like an hourglass though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/am-i-hourglass-or-pear#post-699991 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 07:26:58 +0000 karachitee195 699991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i know u may have heard it all before but plz help...so heres the delimmea ladies....until 6 months a go i had a realyy bad posture...i mean slouchy shoulders and hunched back so when ever i looked in the mirror i always sawe a pear...(may be cause of the fact slouchy shoulder appear smaller) but then when i started correcting it i saw tht my shoulders were actually broad....and now em confused weather wm pear or apple...help ladies here are my measurements<br /> shoulders...39 inch<br /> bust....32c(34 inch at widest)<br /> waist...27 inch<br /> hip bone(from where the hip starts)....34.5 inch<br /> hip (at widest)........39 inch </p>
