Do I have an hourglass or pear shape body type?

Do I have an hourglass or pear shape body type?  I’m uncomfortable wearing a bodycon dress cuz of my big butt.

An hourglass figure is near perfect. Shoulders and hips are around the same size with a defined waist that is 25% smaller than shoulders, hips, and bust measurements.

A pear shape or triangle body type has wider hips than their shoulders. If your hips are 1 3/4 inches larger than your shoulders you have this body type.

Since you don’t feel confident wearing a bodycon dress and you describe yourself having a big butt you probably have more of a pear or triangle body type. Look for dresses with wide necklines and off the shoulders to balance your hips. Empire dresses, halter, and strapless styles are flattering on pear or triangle body types too.
