Pear shapes do not necessarily have longer torso and shorter legs. There are just as many pears who have shorter torsos and longer legs for their height (myself included, at 5'1"). Pear shape just means hips are wider than shoulders/top half. It is a completely independent variable from being short- or long-torsoed. If you're a petite pear with a short torso and relatively longer legs, many of these fashion tips can be flipped around. For instance, skinny jeans are MUCH better than wide-leg jeans (agree with dark wash is best, mind you), because having both longer legs and wider hips mean that most of your visual real estate is already on your bottom half, so you really don't want to be calling more attention by adding volume to the lower half. Also, longer tops that cover the hips and thighs are usually very unflattering on us, because they just make the whole body look as wide as the widest part. Instead, a top with a gently defined waist that skims the waist and hits just at the top of the hips is going to be much more flattering on us short-torsoed petite pears. A-line skirts are great but midi length is bad on us, go for knee-length or above the knee. Finally, horizontal necklines and off-shoulder tops should REALLY be avoided by us short-torsoed petite pears, because they create a horizontal cutoff on our already short torso, making our top half look even shorter. Instead, a v-neck, scoop neck, or any top with some detailing at the shoulder (ties, small puffed sleeves) will make the shoulders look wider and torso look taller, balancing us out. Jules Beth has a good video on her channel about this. Hope this helps anyone reading this who is struggling to adopt these tips because they have a short torso.

@Petite Poire I totally agree with you. I, too, am a petite pear with a short torso and longer legs, and everything you said is right. Right now I'm having trouble finding a plain black dress that isn't above the knee or mid calf. As a curvy pear, I can't wear sheaths or straight styles and as a petite, I need a petite size or the waist is too low. I want a cotton knit for summer if possible, too, but that seems to be asking for the moon on top of everything else.

@@edennis8578 yeah dresses are tricky if the proportion isn't quite right. Check Calvin Klein Petite -- they have them at Macy's and I find their dresses are a perfect fit on my 5'1" frame. Lots of a-line styles, too, since I also avoid clingy sheath dresses for the same reason as you.

Yup me too. I’m a pear- wider hips and narrow shoulders But I have very short torso and long legs. So despite being 5”2, regular pants fit me! 🤷🏽‍♀️ I have a very narrow waist- hence I mostly wear knee length fit and flare dresses or A line knee length skirts.

High rise if you have a long torso because it will balance and/or elongate your legs, typically to even out a pear shape, pants with a bootcut or flare are the best option.

It is harder! I'm a bottom-heavy hourglass who used to think I was a pear (but my shoulders are even with my hips, which makes me an hourglass). I can only wear Curvy Fit jeans and pants, which don't pull at my hips and thighs and fit my waist without gapping. Only a few manufacturers make Curvy Fit bottoms and there are never as many styles as the 'regular' cuts.

Thanks for the tips -- most are spot on for me! I am that small boned, slim curvy pear shape mentioned -- rarely wear petite length as I'm 5 '4; however, I CAN wear the bias cut items -- when they are not skin tight cut, they must have room to move for example size up one size and it actually looks fantastic on my body for decades. I watch and enjoy your videos because although I'm not actually petite/rarely wear petite size, I am small boned so all the proportion tips are perfect!

I am the same way, but the curvy pear is similar to the girl with a large chest in that it is really easy to be judged as unprofessional or “improper” if you wear tight things on the bottom mostly in professional or formal settings. This is a great guide for a pear shaped person to find the right styles of work clothes. Plus there is nothing wrong with trying to look more balanced in the figure to bring more emphasis and eyes to your face!

Absolutely spot on, thank you! Due to a medical condition, my thighs are extremely large and somehow my hips also became wider in recent years, although my upper body is skinny, athletic (sometimes one can even count my ribs or see every tiny muscle of my arms, shoulders, neck and upper chest. Tiny boobs, too :( ) And my legs are so unproportionally huge that I can't even put on any kind of trousers. My favorite is A-line skirts and dresses, this cut is godsent! Occasionally (mainly on stage) I can have a long, tight dress which flares out a little bit down from the hip. I don't know how is that called, like a bell shape.

I'm a curvy pear with medium height, my legs look kinda...elephant's in wide jeans. Mabe bananas would look better, you can accent your ankle and make it look slimmer, especially with light-coloured shoes. Or a bootcut with high-waist paired with heels.

I am pear-shaped and just about finished with my first ever bodycon dress, constructed and sewn out of a whimsy. Now I know that I should add not long sleeves, but an off-shoulder decor... a revelation! Btw, the inventor of the bias cut was Madeleine Vionnet in 1930s France, she made draped dresses popular in western fashion. After the boyish, youthful body type popular in the 1920s and the following straight chemise dresses, women were finally allowed to have a waist again, and the wider hips fashion followed - after the shortages of WW II - in the 1950s with Diors New Look. Fashion history is a fun quarantine entertainment indeed. :)

As someone who has a slim pear shaped figure and 5'3” some of these tips do not pertain to me. First off, my legs are in perfect balance with my torso. I can never buy petite pants because they are just too short for me, often ending at my ankles. Slim pants look infinitely better on me because there is much less material to bulk up my lower half (material thickness is very important in creating balance, but you didn't mention this). Because I am not overweight, white pants look very becoming on me. Flared skirts only work if they are not too flared. You showed a green dress with a lot of flare which swamped you. Too much material creates more volume, only creating more of a pear shape!!! A slight a-line is the best option. You showed pleated skirts. Pleated skirts that start the pleats at the waistline add bulk to everyone. The best pleated skirts have flat material around the stomach area and pleats that begin on the lower part of the hips. For pear shapes I say avoid all wide legged pants, otherwise you look ridiculously out of proportion. Boot leg or straight pants are the widest I would ever recommend. And always consider the thickness of the material. Heavy materials like winter wool and thick denim automatically add more width. These materials work better above the waistline. Short skirts may or may not work on a person (regardless of shape type). As a slim pear shaped person I have nice legs with normal thighs so short skirts suit me-naturally, I'm not talking about micro minis.

🤔🤔 disagree w some points here. Torso has nothing to do w pear shape. Pear bodies have wider hips than shoulders. That’s it.

The "draw attention to your face instead of your hips" comment made me laugh, because I'm now at an age, where I'd rather have people look at my hips than my face haha. But yeah, for younger women, this can be a great tip!

I have a question for my fellow pear shaped ladies out there: it is normal for us to have full thighs even if we are slim? I remember, at the age of 16 I was literally bullied by my mother for having such fleshy upper legs which made me feel so insecure about my figure that it came to the point of me starving myself later. Now my weight is healthy and I would like to gain a little bit more, yet I know that most likely my thighs will become full again although I won't be overweight or will I? Are big thighs a sigh of being overweight?

Unfortunately it is a body feature pear shapes are stuck with. So a combination of diet and exercise is needed to keep them toned up and looking less flabby.

Curvy Pear here . My torso is a little shorter , it’s minor . I don’t follow guidelines for long torso , wouldn’t work for Me . I break some styling rules for pear shaped . I do wear pencil shape . I like being more Beyoncé at times . I focus on neckline . Not having slim legs , don’t like midis . It all depends on my weight .

Great tips! And you can also workout to slim/tone your hips, butt & thighs and widen your upper body by developing your arms, shoulders and back muscles with weightlifting to help balance everything out. It takes consistent hard work, eating healthy and dedication. To me it's worth it, it made me look like I have more of an hourglass shape than pear. And she's right about getting ab muscles, I got a 6 pack but I've been a total gym addict for many years.

I always wondered why my curves on my sides seemed higher up. Anyone else a good weight and your thighs jiggle like jello? I fluctuate between 110 pounds to 120, and I always felt like I look overweight because of my thick thighs. I feel like I look like a stump or something. 😭

"Avoid Short Shorts." Me: Puberty vetoed that option for me when my thighs touched. Even when losing weight and now they no longer touch, that inner cushion will just cause them to ride up. The shoulder thing was new to me so I might try that. But as a pear with a butt, I'm keeping my pencil skirt; just need a little petroleum jelly.

A lot of good tips here. I personally disagree with the bias cut. I absolutely love the way the bias cut looks on my pear shape. Then again, the dress I tried on was was a high boat neck with quarter sleeves so that probably balanced me out a lot.
