pear figure
In women with a pear figure, the upper body is slimmer than the lower body. In this case, the hips, buttocks and your waist are slightly fuller. A do with this figure type is to draw attention mainly to the upper body. For example, give preference to A-line dresses, a wide V-neck, bright colors and fun prints. Don’ts with this figure type are wearing tight pants and mini skirts.
hourglass figure
You have probably seen the hourglass figure before. Characteristic of this figure are the narrow waist and beautiful curves. The hourglass figure is a symmetrical figure, with the shoulders and hips of the same width. It is recommended with this figure type to accentuate your waist.

Clothing that you should avoid is shapeless clothing and clothing items that are too short.
Straight figure
As the name implies, this figure type is characterized by the straight figure. Narrow shoulders and hips and relatively small breasts and buttocks: that is part of this type. For this figure type, prefer fun prints, tailored clothing items, sleeveless tops, loose-fitting clothes or ruffles, puff sleeves or shoulder pads. Very tight dresses or skirts or garments with vertical stripes are don’ts for this type of figure.
