7 Clothing Items That Will Hide A Pear-Shaped Body
If you've been blessed with a pear-shaped body like Rihanna and Beyoncé, with wide hips and thighs and a small waist, you already know how to emphasise and show off your natural body shape. But, what about those days where you prefer to hide it?
There are a few clothing items that will downplay your body's pear shape and create a more proportionate look, read on to find out more!
#1 Off-shoulder tops
An off-shoulder top draws attention to your upper body to balance out a larger lower body. The horizontal line that the off-shoulder neckline creates also makes your hips seem smaller in contrast.
#2 Tops with details or horizontal stripes
Details like prints and frills create visual volume which balances out with a curvy bottom half and make your body seem less pear-shaped.
A top with horizontal stripes widens your upper body which will also create a more proportional look.
#3 A-line skirts & dresses
The A-line silhouette will accentuate your small waist to create proportion while the flared skirt can hide a wider lower body.
#4 Maxi cardigans
Paired with heels, a maxi cardigan can elongate your figure and make you seem taller while also hiding wide hips and thighs.
#5 Long blazer
Similarly, a long blazer will cover a bigger bum and hide a pear-shaped figure. A blazer also creates structure and definition on your shoulders for a more proportionate look.
#6 High-waisted jeans
Pair your printed top with a pair of dark-coloured high-waisted jeans to accentuate your waist and visually slim your lower body.
#7 Flared pants
Another flattering clothing item to match with a louder top is a pair of dark, flared pants. The flared hem balances out with a wider bum to achieve a well-balanced and distributed body shape.
Mix and match these 7 items to create different looks that will hide a pear-shaped body!
