The pear-shaped body type has large hips, thick thighs and a full rear.It is easy to find clothes that will flatter your pear-shaped body if you know what shapes and styles to look for.
Step 1: Top choices are bright colors and prints.
The main goal of dressing a pear figure is to draw attention to the torso and away from the hips and thighs.Outfit your upper body with big prints and bold colors.These make your shoulders and chest seem a bit bigger than they are.
Step 2: Look for a neckline that's right.
For a pear-shaped figure, certain necklines are better as they emphasize the bust.Wide necklines widen your shoulders.The bust is drawn attention to by the necklines, making it look larger.It is possible to make your shoulders and bust look wider by wearing sleeveless tops and dresses.
Step 3: Pay close attention to the fit.
There are pros and cons to tight and loose.Look for tops that are tight around the waist.To provide substance for the shoulders, loose tops should be worn a bit long.The fit of your shirts should aim to highlight your waist and shoulders, something that can be accomplished with the right combination of tight and loose.
Step 4: Put your tops in a layer.
Evens out your body's proportions by bulking up with layers.The illusion of added size is created by using layers of tank tops, blouse, and cardigans.If you use multiple layers that take away the smallness of your waist, use a thin belt to cinch them in and give yourself that hourglass figure again.
Step 5: There are embellished tops.
There are shirts that have adornment near the neck.There is a load of shirts near your neck.They draw the eye upwards and away from your bottom half the same way.It is possible to wear a scarf to the same effect.
Step 6: Wide sleeves are a good choice for tops.
It is not always easy to find wide-sleeved shirts, but keep an eye out for bell and kimono sleeves.Wide sleeves add volume to your arms, and as a result, your hips and rear look more balanced and proportioned.If nothing else, try to wear shirts with rolled sleeves that add volume to your arms, but don't make a bold fashion statement.
Step 7: The shirts you choose should be the right length.
The widest part of your hips should be covered by tops that extend just below your hipbone.Since these will only make the widest part of your legs look wider, avoid hemlines that reach down to your thighs.Crop tops should be avoided because they are too close to your hips to be flattering.
Step 8: The right undergarments should be worn.
Your entire upper body can be changed if you wear the right undergarments.A push-up bra is a good choice.This will add volume to a small bust.It is possible to wear a natural style under both casual and dress clothes.
Step 9: Go with dark colors.
The eye skims over dark colors to get a slimming effect.Wear dark washes and avoid medium and light wash jeans.There are a variety of pants and skirts in shades of black, gray, navy, brown, and olive green.These will match nearly any shirt you have in your closet.
Step 10: Get the right shape of pants.
Similar to your tops, you want to create proportional sizes in your legs and the rest of your body.To create a bottom half with full volume all the way down, choose pants that are straight leg or flared at the bottom.The size of your hips/rear, as well as pants and jeans that are equal width or slightly wider in the calf and ankle area, will draw attention away from your midsection.The least flattering style for a pear-shaped body is cigarette-style pants.
Step 11: Pick a few flattering skirts.
The skirts that hit the knee or ankle are perfect for pear-shaped ladies.Short skirts force the eye to linger on the widest part of your body, rather than draw it to the end point.You should look for skirts that start just above your hips, and are not shorter than the knee.Avoid tight-fitting skirts and look for those with ruffles or beading along the bottom hem to draw attention to your curvy bottom half.Balance out your hips may be helped by placing these details at the knee or lower.If you want to wear a tight fitting or short skirt, wear one with vertical stripes or a dark color.This will help you lose weight.
Step 12: Don't mention details at the hip or back.
Although jeans with cute beaded and embroidered pockets may seem like a good idea, they can draw the eye to your least flattering location.Don't wear pants or belts that are embellished with buttons, gemstones, sequins, or bold embroidered near your hips or rear.
Step 13: Try a few dresses.
If you want to accomplish both your tasks at the same time, dresses are a great way to do it.Avoid dresses that are tight and stick to your hips, and look for dresses with A-line or tulip-skirts.If a dress is banded around the waist and you cover up your shoulders it will get you bonus points.
Step 14: There are a few statement necklaces.
A necklace that hangs low draws the eye to your upper half.Your entire body looks better proportioned because of the extra detail on your bust.A collar-style necklace that adds width to your neck and shoulders is a bonus for highlighting your upper body.
Step 15: Look for a pair of earrings that are bold.
Keeping in mind that you should wear only one statement piece of jewelry at once, putting on some flashy earrings is a great way to draw the eye further up the body and away from your hips.For the best effect, choose chandelier style or dangly earrings.
Step 16: Throw on a scarf
Extra detail at the neck makes it difficult for onlookers to focus on your full lower half.If you want to see what looks best for you, try a variety of scarves tied in different ways.When wearing a circle scarf, the lack of tail ends prevents the eye from travelling downwards as quickly.
Step 17: Don't wear the wrong shoes.
The appearance of the rest of your body can be changed by your shoes.If you want your legs to look more proportional, look for shoes that have a pointed toe.Adding height and sculpting the muscles in your legs with high heels makes them look more flattering.If you are up for the challenge, wearing bold and colorful shoes can do the same thing as a big necklace; it draws the eyes away from the unflattering regions of your body and adds interest to a smaller area.
