It's not You, it's Your Pants That Don't Suit Your Shape

[@TarynsTime]

As a 5"1" hourglass that can no longer wear heels due to arthritis, if I wear flared pants they look sloppy on me now. I've gone back to the tired and true Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda petite jeans. The fit is always right always right all over.

I am shy of 5'1" and have an inverted triangle body type. Strong shoulders, bigger bust, and short waist. It is very hard to find pants, or just about anything that looks flattering on me. You've helped me determine the right styles to search for. Thanks 😏

Thank you for covering pears 1st! 😂 But also reminding us that you must say no to tapered, creased and skinny jeans/trousers. Only wide legs for me ❤

[@chloebelle4923]

*SO helpful* ! I am petite and apple shaped just like you. So glad I found your channel!

I'm a pear shape & I look great in wide-leg pants.

Thank you, Chi, for sharing your skills and insights on this topic. I learned something important today: I am petite and curvy, and I feel very blessed with the proportional distribution of my shoulders and hips. You're right that certain styles may look great on others but not necessarily on me. I truly appreciate this video.❤

Description Box was super helpful, thank you so very much!

As an inverted triangle, It’s hard for any pants to make your butt look perky. I don’t have a big butt but it’s still a little bubble butt lol. Kind of.

[@americafirst9144]

They make special jeans and Shapewear that help with that.

Great video! Thank you very much for the excellent tips!

Hi Chi. I've been following you for a while, but this is my first time commenting. Thank you for all of the information. I can tell you did your research. I'm an hourglass shape and everything you've said about hourglass I've found to be true.

Thank you ❤

Hi Chi love your pick for apple ..really pretty 🙏💛🥰🍰☕️💵

[@danamatsukawa4762]

Good video! My problem is finding pants that are large enough in the waist and not too big in the hips. I have a 3 inch difference between the two. I would call myself an apple, but I look awful when I try to wear a pleated trouser. I look like a tree stump. lol

I am 5’3”, 120 lb always thought that I am a pear shape, since the fat locates on my tummy and my thighs when I put on weight. I have small breast, however my shoulders are aligned with my bottom part in terms of width. And I have defined waist. So which category I am belong to by your opinion?

[@zazamafra2145]

Hi @ Chi Li❤

[@pazyrivera8298]

I wish I can define If my torso is longer or short. How can I tell? Do I measure it and measure the length of my torso to hip?

[@chloebelle4923]

Try this - Stand up straight, place one hand below your bust, and place your other hand below the first. If your belly button is directly below your second hand, your body is proportionate. If your belly button is below your second hand, but there's some space, you have a long torso. If your belly button is below your hands, you have a short torso.

I found out because when sheath dresses were popular one year, I couldn't wear any of them because the waist of the dress always hit me too low. I'm longer from the waist to hip (the rise), however, meaning that pants often fit me wrong even in the correct size for my measurements. I need swimsuits that are extra long in the body because my rise is so long. So it may not be as simple as just knowing if you have a short torso or not.

👍👍😊thanks

[@fairymystonight1783]

Even if I’m short (4’10) + inverted triangle, I can still wear wide leg pants?

[@ohThaTairra]

hii🎉 5'1 and love your content

[@Morslatke]

As an hourglass, I actually like flared pants the most! I find that straight leg pants can be too baggy on me in an unflattering way. Flares that fit in the hip and thigh are great and very versatile.

[@grat2010]

Same for me!
