For this shape, it is good to wear something that can draw attention to the upper part of the body. Wide necklines should be a choice, such as a boat, scoop, square or halter which give widen effect to shoulders.
It is recommended to wear an under-wire or molded bras and semi-fitted, tailored tops because pear shape looks great with any shirts that are not too loose or too tight.
Details on top will show off your upper and take all eyes up to it, and belt accessories will help define the waistline and slimmer the look.
Puffy sleeves and tops that hug the shoulders or ones with wide-set straps will help to visually widen the chest and shoulders.
In choosing a jacket or blazer, short is the better. In this case, short meaning those which fall slightly above or at waist level.
For the bottom, mid-rise to lower rise style would be excellent for disguising the size of the hips and bottoms. Wide-legged pants and deep dark colors are suggested for a sleek slimmer look.
Pear shape should wear pants with the same stitched color as the fabric’s color. Simple plain pocket at the back, better in large size, can give smaller effect to the bottom part.
Straight leg jeans that fall from the hips make the leg-line of the pear shape appear longer, and boot-cut jeans can offset that extra width around the hips.
For the skirt, the best material to conceal the area around hips and thighs is flowing fabrics in a straight a-line style.
A slightly flared skirt or even ball gown style is also ideal because it flatters the waistline and shows up the bust as well as hiding the larger hips.
Play with light color at top and dark color at the bottom can help balance the shape.
Pear shape should stay away from body-hugging tight skirts. This will only show every bump and curve.
Bold patterns, large checks, and light colors are not recommended for below the waist. In addition, pleated or gathered fabric at the waist is not suggested as this will accentuate the broader hips.
Do not wear jackets or blazer that finish at the widest part of the hips.
Back Pockets with too many details, embellishment or decoration should be avoided as well as bulky side pockets. This will only draw the eyes right to the problem area where the bottom part look rounder and the thighs look smaller.
Narrow skinny jeans with tapered legs will only enhance the wideness of your hips, thighs, and seat, so as the stretch fabrics or baggy.
The tighter the jeans, the more it will accentuate the curves, and in this case, that is not at desirable effect. Stretch jeans will make the bottom half look heavier.
High-waisted shapeless pants and skirt also make the bottom part look larger.
Silhouette: A-line, Ball Gown
Neckline: Halter, Strapless, V-Neck, Off-the-Shoulder, Scoop
Strapless corset-style combine with an A-line skirt looks great for a pear shape. Another style would be halter and ball gown. Decorations (including jewelry) in the top can add volume to the bust.
Also, consider an Off-the-Should or scoop with an A-line. You'll find that these styles can draw attention to your upper half and bring balance.
This bride should avoid any type of body-hugging gown, full skirts, or cuts that make the upper body appear even smaller or the lower body larger.
Sleek shoes with a thinner heel will work better visually rather than clunky footwear.
Bad to wear:
Silhouette: Sheath, Mermaid, Empire
Neckline: V-Neck
Avoid styles that contour to the shape of pear bodies such as Sheath and Mermaid. V-neck tends to draw attention towards the chest and hips.
A long lined tankini in a lighter, brighter shade or bold print can be an alternative. This can be worn as a swim top, or as a halter top that can be worn anywhere.
Add some padding or a demi-bra style (with underwire) to make the bust appears larger.
Another great item is the suit with a bubble skirt or shorts.
The bubble skirt has a low waist that helps show off the waist as the best features while camouflaging the hips and thighs.
