How to make your pear shape look fabulous

We can't all be lucky enough to have an hour glass figure. Most of us have curves but usually not where we want them. If you're bottom heavy or pear shaped, you'll probably wish you could just move some of your body upwards. Unfortunately, this is not possible unless you want to go under the surgeons knife. So we're helpless then? No, not at all. The clothes you wear and how you wear then can have an amazing effect on how your body looks. The right outfit can almost eliminate your bottom heavy appearance. Follow these simple rules and you we guarantee you'll be surprised at the difference...

If you're bottom heavy or pear shaped...

  • wear boot cut or flared bottom trousers. They will help add width to your ankle area and therefore reduce the apparent size of your middle area.
  • always try to wear dark colours around your hips and lighter colours further up. Remember dark colours are slimming and light colours have the reverse effect.
  • an A-line skirt will emphasize your curves without making you look huge.
  • three quarter length coats and tops will effectively cover your problem area without making you look like you are trying to hide something
  • conversely, avoid short jackets and tops that end at your bum. This will draw the eye to your large middle section
  • do not wear trousers with a wide leg. These will just make you look huge from the waist down to your feet
  • remember heels are your best friend. Not only do these add a few inches to your legs but they will make your hips and bottom look smaller.
  • make the most of what you've got upstairs. If you're not blessed with heaving breasts, wear a padded bra or wonderbra. This isn't to make you look sexy (although it can do if you want) but to help balance you're larger middle area and draw attention away from it.
  • in the same vein, accessorize with necklaces and broaches to draw the eyes to your upper body rather than your less favourable areas.
