I agree with rectangle / slim hourglass and long-waisted (i.e., long torso, which I think makes the hourglass visually more rectangular).</p> <p>I am convinced I'd be healthier if I had a smaller waist proportionally. I am misshapen! Lol. So sad. Lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839996 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 19:06:48 +0000 Suz 839996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Forum member Janet posted a thread about that subject (grass always greener) recently. Pears want to be ITs, ITs want to be pears, tall want to be shorter, short want to be tall....</p> <p>your shoulders and hips balance and you do have a noticeable waist, so while you are slim (and may still want to create curves) you definitely have hourglass tendencies. </p> <p>I understand about wrap dresses. They don't do me any favours, either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839973 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 18:51:06 +0000 melissa 839973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for replys. you have been SO helpful. I have thought that i might be a hourglass but i dont have the curves that i think a hourglass should have. </p> <p>they have a generous bust and can wear wrap dresses. The look terrible on me. </p> <p>i always wanted to be more curvy. I am always trying to create curves. otherwise i look like a stick! </p> <p>Man, how is it that we always want to be something that we aren't? Do any of you ladies feel that way? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839887 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 17:30:53 +0000 dizzys 839887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am thinking hourglass with IT tendencies..... Defined waste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839829 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 16:49:58 +0000 Suz 839829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our measurements are very similar -- except you are a whole lot taller than me!! So YOU are a very slim rectangle/ hourglass! (I am the slightly less slim version). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839788 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 16:21:10 +0000 Angie 839788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome and look forward to seeing your pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839757 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 15:50:24 +0000 amiable 839757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like a tall slim hourglass to me - you have a very definite defined waist!<br /> And welcome - this is a terrific group! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-member-body-type#post-839712 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 14:59:25 +0000 Beth Ann 839712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greetings, Melissa!
