Based on the classic bust–waist–hip ratio method. Results are guidance, not judgement — every body is unique.
The five classic shapes
Shape is determined by how bust, waist and hip measurements compare with each other.
Hourglass
Bust and hips roughly equal, with a distinctly narrower waist (waist at least 9" smaller than bust).
Pear (triangle)
Hips noticeably wider than bust — the classic bottom-heavy silhouette.
Apple (round)
Waist nearly as wide as bust or hips, with weight concentrated around the middle.
Rectangle
Bust, waist and hips are all similar; a balanced, athletic line.
Inverted triangle
Bust or shoulders clearly wider than hips — a powerful top-heavy frame.
How to measure yourself
For accurate results, measure over light clothing with a flexible tape, keeping it level and snug — not tight.
- • Bust — measure at the fullest part of the chest, arms relaxed at your sides.
- • Waist — measure at the natural waist, the narrowest point above the navel.
- • Hips — measure at the fullest part of the hips and buttocks.
