What is an hourglass figure?

Women with this body type have proportional shoulders and hips, as well as a distinct waist. It’s a highly attractive, proportioned, and feminine body shape. Because they enhance a very ladylike form, almost anything fitted around the waist and bosoms looks beautiful.

What are the measurements of an hourglass figure?

Have you taken your measurements in accordance with our instructions? Perfect! Now all you have to do is perform this maths to see if you have an hourglass figure.

One body type, diverse women

You don’t have to have a wasp waist to have a distinct waist. It’s all about the scale. To put it another way, you can have an hourglass figure while being tall, short, slender, or curvaceous. The ideal figure does not exist; what matters is that we recognise the unique aspects of our bodies and learn how to flaunt them in clothes that we like and relate with.

What’s the best way to dress for an hourglass figure?

Now let’s get down to business with some recommendations and tips for the greatest essential garments to compliment your hourglass body.

1. Tops

Trousers

Because they define your waist, high-waisted trousers are your best friends. Low-rise trousers should be avoided because they will accentuate your hips. Although you can get away with practically any form of pants, we recommend straight or boot cut styles.

2. Dresses

Fitted (but not too tight) gowns flatter your figure by emphasising your waist. Wrap dresses with a V-neck, soft designs, and simple colours, for example. Softer materials will look better than stiffer ones. Again, avoid any “spandex type” fabric that is excessively tight, as it will detract from the elegance of your shape. Also, boxy dresses that disguise your figure should be avoided.

3. Skirts

Choose high-waisted, fitted-at-the-hips skirts, such as pencil or tube skirts. Also, consider A-line skirts and skirts that flow from the hip.
