				<description>&#060;p&#062;Is that you in the red dress (your avatar)? I can't find the other pics you posted, but take one more measurement: around your shoulders. If they are larger than your hip measurement, I have a feeling that you might be a statuesque inverted triangle. (That's what I am, so I can kinda spot one across the room, lol!)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I found this website looking for body-type info and it cleared so much up for me. I have similar proportions to you, and thought maybe I was a pear, because my bust was smaller than my hips, or maybe an hourglass, because my waist is somewhat smaller than my bust and hips with a little definition, or maybe I was an apple, because I struggle with dressing a tummy that is a little puffy. When I read about the triangle, I measured my shoulders for the first time, and it all became clear. Looking at the red dress picture, the shoulders look wider than the hips to me. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Hope this helps, and welcome!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I agree, it's hard to tell without a photo. For instance, are your shoulders in line with your hips, bigger or smaller? Do you have a tummy? Does your waist indent noticeably or are you more straight through the midsection with full hips/thighs?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;is there any way you can post a picture of yourself to a photobucket account and post the link here?  The pic would need to be full length, straight on, arms to your side, and wearing fitted clothes... as swimsuit or workout wear is always a great idea.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;it is just usually not possible to judge body type without a picture.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'm 5ft11&#034; tall and I weigh 174lbs. My measurements are bust 38,waist 31 and hips 42.I'd say I'm quite big boned hence I weigh a lot compared to how I look and I'm a US size 6/8. I'd like to know whether I'm hourglass or pear-shaped.
&#060;/p&#062;
