When selecting a top, go with a top that has a catchy color and/or nice detail. I also recommend selecting a top with breast pockets, big collars or a pattern. Horizontal stripes help to widen your upper body to bring it more into balance with your hips as do (subtle) shoulder pads.

Pear shapes tend to be bottom heavy. The best way to create the illusion of an hourglass shape (and more balanced silhouette) is by de-emphasizing your lower body. I recommend wearing pants that are not too tight or too bright in color. A well tailored boot cut is also perfect for the pear shaped woman. While it can be more difficult to find cropped pants that are flattering, straight cropped pants can work, especially when you combined with booties in the same color that lengthen the leg line.

A-line skirts are the pear shape’s best friend. To create a streamlined and flattering look, make sure the skirt is knee length and includes flat seaming on the front. Pencil skirts are also a worthwhile option; you just have to ensure that the fit is perfect. Make sure there is a streamlined look from top to bottom, that the skirt hits at knee length, and that there is virtually little to no tapering.

A-line dresses will always look absolutely perfect on a pear shape. Select dresses that draw attention to your upper body, have defined shoulders, and a deep v-neckline to really create the illusion of a hourglass figure. The goal here is visual interest on top with a great flare and fit on the bottom, or a belt that comes in the skinniest part of your body.

For the pear shape, jackets are a perfect way to draw attention to your upper body. We recommend wearing A-shaped knee length coats (such as a trench coat for spring). Jackets work quite well too if you select one that has lots of details on top (like shoulder details, buttons, etc.).

Be careful with high vamp shoes or shoes with ankle straps as they will shorten your legs especially when worn with skirts. Wear medium to chunky heals with a bit of height to further elongate the legs. I also recommend nude or neutral shoes that will show a bit more skin and blend in with a look (a more monochromatic bottom).
