Anything that draws the eye upward, like an interesting neckline, a scarf, or even a statement necklace, will detract for your hips.

I like a slightly longer sweater, but nothing that clings to your rear. This is a good example of a sweater that both draws the eye up toward the ruffles and isn't too fitted:

Ruffle trimmed cotton cardigan with banded high waist in dark grey by Venus. Great shoulder design for a pear-shaped figure.

I also like the color-block cardigan on the left (below), especially with the darker color on the bottom. (Sorry, I could not separate the two images.)

Here are a few from Macy's:
