The variability of female nature is an endless topic for thought. An entire philosophical movement can be built on the whims and caprices of lovely ladies alone. It is not surprising that the fashion created by them is so unpredictable and cruel. From year to year, girls with completely opposite proportions had the most beautiful female figures.
History remembers hundreds of reincarnations of lovely ladies. For example, in the 1900s it was fashionable to shrink the figure to an unimaginable 40 cm with rigid corsets! This led to fainting from any sudden stimuli.
Later, decade after decade, the fair sex either lost weight to the bones, then again showed graceful “tasty” forms. And all for the sake of men who, by and large, have always liked appetizing girls without obvious thinness (like anorexic Twiggy) and without extra pounds (like today's fast food lovers).
The famous writer JK Rowling looked at the root of the problem of nations, writing just a couple of lines:
“Is being fat really the worst thing that can happen to a person? Is “fat” really worse than “vindictive”, “envious”, “empty”, “vain”, “boring” or “cruel”? Not for me".
Indeed, much fewer people have begun to realize in our glorious 21st century that appearance is just a wrapper. However, this does not in any way prevent fashion from dictating terms again. So, what is, in our time, according to most, the most beautiful female figure in the world?
The most beautiful figures of stars
In any era, the standard of beauty was considered famous personalities. Nobody took into account ordinary girls, talking about what kind of figure is in fashion now. Everyone looked up to celebrities. For example, one of the owners of the sexiest and most perfect figure in the 40s and 50s was the beauty Betty Brosmer. This lady was famous model, which then appeared on all the covers of famous publications. After her, the charming Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield appeared to the world. But the fact remains that we look up to famous women who “forge” the fashion for figures with their own hands.
As soon as the caste of supermodels was formed, all the girls and women on the planet became simply obsessed with unhealthy “90-60-90” with high growth. Now these parameters are in fashion and natural beauty. Among the current stars, the owners of the most ideal figures in the world are:
Nicole Scherzinger
Nicole has become the standard for millions of young girls who strive to delight men. The 36-year-old beauty has enviable curves: 89-61-90 cm at height 165 cm And weight 52 kg. For the sake of such chiseled figure she eats only healthy food: vegetables, fruits, fish and not too fatty meat. The talented singer also devotes time to working out in the gym with a personal trainer three times a week. These activities include jogging, cardio warm-up, yoga and dancing. It is thanks to her work that Nicole seduces men with the most ideal figure in the world.
Judging by surveys that have been conducted more than once by famous world scientists, men do not care at all what numbers the tape measure showed on the hips, bust and waist of a beauty. The main thing is that the figure as a whole looks aesthetically pleasing and proportional. Thus, many respondents confirmed that a woman with round shapes is much more desirable than a thin top model. The whole point is, as psychologists say, that in men, on a subconscious level, wide hips And magnificent bust associated with fertility. That is, such a lady can easily endure healthy child. As a result of the research, it became clear what parameters make girls the owners of the most beautiful figures from the point of view of the opposite sex: waist – 75 cm, and hips – 100 cm. Regarding chest girth, the opinions of the respondents differed greatly, but size 3 is held in high esteem. At the same time, the most seductive men considered clothing size 46. Items of exactly this size were worn by the inimitable Marilyn Monroe.
Scarlett Johansson
The 30-year-old beauty from the USA rightfully deserves to be called the owner of one of the most beautiful figures. Scarlett's photos instantly scatter across the Internet before they even have time to load. To always maintain your ideal 94-63-95 cm in circumference of the chest, waist and hips, the girl eats a balanced diet. The actress and singer eats a lot of fruits and vegetables, but does not burden herself with a lot of exercise. The temptress relies only on cardio warm-up, squats, push-ups, jogging and simple walking. Star growth - 164 cm, and weight - 54 kg.
Jessica Alba
An enchanting, sizzling beauty, again from the USA, is the owner of the most beautiful female figure. But in order to grow 169 cm and weight 55 kg have parameters 90-62-91, the star performs an amazing amount physical exercise. The 34-year-old actress exercises 4 times a week, and in addition to this, she additionally does yoga, sweats on an exercise bike and a treadmill. Jessica does not eat bread at all, and always eats only half a portion.
Monica Bellucci
Stunning and unique actress with perfect body. The 50-year-old beauty is so busy that she simply cannot afford to waste time at the gym. Her rhythm of life is best weapon against excess weight. If a star needs to lose weight before filming, only then does she begin to eat a diet (fish, vegetables, lean meat). The actress's height is 176 cm, and weight - 65 kg. Bellucci is the mother of two daughters, but her curves never cease to excite men: 92-65-97 cm.
Halle Berry
The magnificent beauty from the USA has been exciting men all over the world for several decades. They say that Holly does not age, and judging by her parameters, this is true. With growth 177 cm, she only weighs 55 kg, and the circumference of the bust, waist and hips - 90-59-91 cm. The star needs to watch her calories not only to maintain her status as the owner of the sexiest figure in the world, but also because the celebrity suffers from diabetes. At 46 years old, Holly looks divine.
Not everyone has the ideal figure, and fashion is constantly changing. Thin people are popular today, plump ones are popular tomorrow. The main thing is to remain good, sincere and kind person. Don't forget this when you look at yourself in the mirror.

About how girls look for the most beautiful figures
Diet
Maria Korzhenevskaya:“I just follow the Kremlin rules.” And don’t say that this idea is somehow outdated. I won’t believe it, because good or ideal never gets old. Anyone who wants to argue with me, I’m waiting for you in the comments.”
Hoop
Efrosinya Lenskaya:“Twist the hoop and run at least five circles every morning. Yes…. Also drink coffee and tea without added sugar. It helps, honestly. This is how I save my figure from excess weight.”
Focus on nutrition
Marina Malinovskaya:“Pasta and ketchup are the enemies of any female figure. In a personal example, I “overate” ketchup. The figure “flaunted” an excess of kilograms. I was terribly furious, but at first I didn’t understand where all the extra stuff was coming from. It seemed as if I had smeared myself with hormonal ointment. Ointments of this type often cause problems with figures.”
Constitution
Olga Bondorovets:“I don’t complain about my figure, because I’m just not getting better. The Constitution is like this. Many friends never cease to feel envy about this. I’m not offended, but it’s unpleasant when people envy.”
Banned figure
Polina Medvedeva:“My husband forbids me to go on diets. He says that he will not allow me to harm my body. Of course, it's easy for him to say! Men don't look after their figures. They will never refuse beer and fish. Even if you show them how many kilocalories there are in these “delights”. I wouldn't want to be born a man. It's boring to be a man."
Stair marathons
Arina Zapolskaya:“I live on the nineteenth floor. Every day I walk both up and down. Can you imagine how much excess weight I lose in a week? My figure lives and breathes beauty. And I don’t want to give up this beauty.”
Vegetarian
Elena Erokhina: “I eat only fruits and vegetables, drink only water and juices without sugar. Scary diet, isn't it? But I’m not afraid of her: I was afraid. But I bought a gorgeous dress. And it doesn’t feel too tight for me, it’s like it was tailor-made for me. That's why I have such respect for diets. Are there those who like to change the size of their figure? We have something to discuss!”
Windy
Svetlana Molchan:“What nonsense? Everyone is obsessed with figures and diets! Love yourself! You don't need to change yourself radically. There is no need for any adjustments if you are loved. Anorexia is not a solution or a way to become more beautiful.”
Mode decision
Natalya Metelskaya:“I don’t eat after six. My figure never ceases to please me. And the outfits are easy to find by size. I'm so happy that I can control myself. By the way, sometimes I forget to eat. The boss likes to overwhelm me with tasks. And I am grateful to him for this “stuff.” And I live without alcohol. It also has mega-calorie content! I’m not just talking about beer.”
Divorce is great for losing weight
Anastasia Bortnichuk:“I didn’t even need any diet. I just divorced my husband. You can’t imagine how much weight I lost from this divorce process. Soon I will begin to glow like an X-ray photograph... It’s better to save your family than a beautiful figure.”
Opinion of a plump woman
Polina Zelenova:“Girls, don’t look up to models! They have their own diets and nutritionists. And you, due to your incompetence, can do this to your figure... You will curse any weight loss for the rest of your life. Hospitals and pills are not a great future. Or have you not realized this yet?
No drugs
Kristina Romanovskaya:“Do whatever you want, just don’t take diet pills! They are very harmful, girls. These pills are slow poison. Take care and protect yourself, dears! Men will like you anyway. My sister almost died from diet pills. Don't take risks like she did. Take care of the nerves of your loved ones if you have completely stopped thinking about yourself.”
Physical exercise
Many women are very critical of their figure and dream of ideal model parameters. As it turned out, in vain. Model thinness is often associated with many diseases, and most men don’t like it. Now let’s figure out what parameters you need to strive for so that your appearance can be called ideal.
Tara Lynn is the owner of curvy figures, but this does not prevent her from being one of the most sought-after models in the world. She attracts the gaze of men, and it is impossible to stop looking at her. What's the secret?
In fact, there is no secret. Men really like Tara's figure, or any similar figure, because the woman has a toned beautiful skin, feels confident and knows his worth. This is what makes her successful, not her skinny body.
Female body types
The best figure is not only the ratio of body fat and body weight. There are many congenital female characteristics. Women's figures are not the same, so they need to be assessed based on their individual characteristics.
For example, the “triangle” type - this figure resembles a pear, but many men find it attractive. It is very strange that most women with this type consider themselves fat. The advantages of such a figure include an elegant, light top, but there are also disadvantages - a heavy bottom. If you don’t watch your figure and don’t go to the gym, then full legs will stand out strongly against the background of narrow shoulders. But with proper care, those with a triangle figure approach the ideal parameters, attracting men.
The hourglass figure is the envy of many women, since those with such shapes were given the ideal figure from birth. Women have the same size shoulders and hips, and the waist is harmoniously distinguished by its miniature volume. If a woman with such a figure starts playing sports, all parts of her body will lose weight at the same time.
The “rectangle” figure is not the most perfect option female figure, but it also has its merits. Such young ladies have a proportional body. Disadvantages include the lack of a waist and, in the case of systematic overeating, the deposition of fat on the abdomen. But if you exercise regularly, you can bring your rectangular figure to ideal condition. The main thing is to focus on training the abdominal muscles.
The “inverted triangle” figure gives its owners a lot of problems, since there is a noticeable difference between wide shoulders and narrow hips. This figure is more typical of men, but women also have it. The advantages of this type are great. In addition, you will not gain weight in your thighs, even if you do not eat right. Disadvantages include a lack of femininity, but this can be easily corrected with the help of other aspects of appearance.
The best body type
Any figure can be made beautiful, but representatives of the stronger sex were still able to highlight their ideal. In their opinion, the title of the most beautiful type The figures are divided between the hourglass figure and the triangle figure. Both of these figures are distinguished by femininity, elegance, and sexuality.
It is worth noting that even the most beautiful curves can be ruined if you don’t watch your diet and don’t go to the gym. It is extremely rare to find figures who, from birth, remain attractive without due effort.
Even if your figure is not the most beautiful type, this is not a reason to be upset. In fact, everything can be corrected with the help of sports and proper nutrition. Consult a trainer to advise you on exercises that will help you burn fat in problem areas and build muscles where you need them.
Remember also about your choice of clothing. Your body type, even if you don't like it, can be made perfect by simply choosing the right outfit.
Not a single figure, even the most ideal one, will attract the gaze of others if you do not follow appearance hair and facial skin. Therefore, you need to be beautiful as a whole, and not just focus on your figure.
Remember to be confident. Surely you have an overweight friend who is constantly running away from the attention of annoying gentlemen. She just knows her worth, she is confident in her beauty and knows that she deserves all the best.
Instead of output
Thus, best figure- this is not a photograph on the cover of a magazine. Your body can also become perfect if you put in the appropriate effort. Yes, sometimes you are too lazy to go to the gym, sometimes you want to eat a forbidden product, especially at night. But admit that it is much more pleasant to know that you are the most beautiful, feminine and attractive.
Greetings, beauties! We are all so different and each has its own special beauty. Let's look at today what types and varieties of figures there are in women and girls. IN Lately I like to watch people and analyze their physique, and then come up with ideas for what I should dress them in.
Apparently, an unfulfilled desire from childhood still whispers within me - to become a stylist or clothing designer. And now I want to talk about the types and types of figures of women and girls, show in pictures and photos how to identify them and talk about the various classifications of types.
As a result, you will perceive your body in a new way and draw important conclusions for yourself in terms of health and creating a wardrobe.
This can be achieved with original draperies, flounces, and ruffles. Use expressive accessories, shoes, handbags that give your image greater femininity.
Among the stars and prominent celebrities, there are also representatives with a rectangular body type. For example, here are these examples of photos of rectangular women.
Body type inverted triangle or "V- or T-shaped"or "carrot or strawberry"
A feature of this type of female figure is the following paradox: this figure could be ideal (thin waist, narrow hips, slender long legs, small breasts), but if not for such disproportionate broad shoulders. Because of this, a woman begins to look quite massive, like a man.
This is the type of figure that most female athletes have; this is the most athletic type among all the others. If there is excess fat, it is deposited mainly in the upper part: in the areas of the neck, shoulders and arms. The waist volume is almost the same as the hip volume, the OT/OB ratio is more than 0.7.
Women with this type, in order to get closer to the desired parameters, need to balance the lower and upper body. To achieve this goal, strength exercises are needed so that the load is maximum, but the number of approaches should be small.
In the photo below you can see ladies with an inverted triangle body type. Agree that they are also nothing worse than women With hourglass, you just need to present yourself favorably (click on the photo to enlarge).
Women with a V-shaped figure need to visually narrow their shoulders and widen their bottoms when choosing their wardrobe. In addition, they have a very cool trump card - these are slender legs that need to be emphasized. This can be achieved with skirts and trousers of unusual colors and patterns. Such clothes with a beautiful print will look very original. This maneuver will take the eye away from the massive shoulders.
The top should not be voluminous; avoid additional shoulders and puff sleeves. Try to choose dark colors for the top and bright colors for the bottom and then you will get a visually very harmonious silhouette and image. You can see celebrities with a carrot body type in the photo below.
Female figure type apple or “O-shaped” or “circle or oval or diamond”
A characteristic feature of this type of figure is the absence of a waist. This type combines an aristocratic posture, slender legs, hips, arms and shoulders, but there is no waist at all. Such women are naturally very prone to being overweight. Their excess fat is deposited in the back and abdomen. Therefore, for women with this type of figure necessary exercises should be aimed primarily at the abdominal area.
Quite recently, I wrote another article dedicated to the figure, but in it I talked about the body types that are used in fitness in order to choose the right training and nutrition. Read the article.
The emphasis in clothing should be on the legs and décolleté. It was this type of figure that the great Rubens valued very much. Typically, such women are short, with slender legs and massive chest. As you gain weight, fat is distributed evenly throughout your body. The belly protrudes forward.
When creating a wardrobe for representatives with an apple figure, you need to try to lengthen the silhouette, since these women often have short stature. This can be achieved with long V-neck sweaters, blouses and shirts with high collar. Ideal length The length of the skirt is just below the knee or to mid-calf. You should not use bright prints; it is better to use neutral and calm colors. You can use vertical lines in clothing; they will visually lengthen the silhouette.
However, in any case, ladies with need to avoid tight clothing, short skirts and horizontal lines, it is better to choose multi-layered models, and you should also avoid belts and waistbands. Special meaning in the image you need to pay attention beautiful makeup and hairstyle. Below you can see stars and celebrities with an apple body type.
Metabolic types of female figures
If you thought that typing female forms stops only at the ratios or parameters of body parts, then you are mistaken. There is another classification of women's silhouettes - according to metabolic types. As I already said, we are all different, partly because we are dominated by the work of one or another endocrine gland, which affects metabolism.
There are four main metabolic types of female figures:
- Thyroid or thyroid
- Adrenal or adrenal
- Ovarian or ovarian
- Pituitary or lymphatic
Lymphatic
In these ladies, the predominant gland is the pituitary gland, located in the skull. With a pituitary constitution, there is a sluggish, slow metabolism, the body retains fluid well and accumulates fat. Typically, such women tend to be overweight since childhood. Fat fiber is distributed evenly. The description of this type easily echoes the apple-shaped shapes that I talked about just above.
By nature, such women are cheerful and sociable, artistic and cheerful. However, they do not really like to exercise, which further aggravates their obesity. Instead of sports, such girls and women can be advised to dance fiery dances - salsa, oriental, flamenco.
Thyroid
The name speaks for itself. In such beauties, the functioning of the thyroid gland predominates. As a rule, these are people with normal weight or even with an asthenic body type, i.e., thin build. This somatic type has something in common with a rectangular figure, so the same clothes as in the photo above suit them. Women look boyish, with no big breasts, narrow shoulders and long limbs.
By nature, people with thyroid somatic type are quick-tempered, get tired quickly, and often suffer from bouts of apathy. It is especially difficult for them during times of stress, both mental and physical, because thyroid very sensitive in this regard. The metabolism is quite fast, but with age, if an asthenic person systematically overeats and does not exercise, then this type of figure may gain weight.
Ovarian
This is the most feminine option. The work of the ovaries and female hormones predominate. Reminiscent of pear and hourglass body types. It is also called gynecoid or gynoid body type. The distribution of adipose tissue is greatest on the thighs and buttocks.
Such women are distinguished by perseverance and endurance. They say about such people: “They will stop a galloping horse...”. Often not present proper nutrition, namely the lack of breakfast. Women of this type, as a rule, do not have problems conceiving and bearing children.
Adrenal
Representatives of this type are very similar to men in terms of figure. Such shapes are also called the android body type. Women have male body proportions: broad shoulders, narrow hips almost level with the waist. Reminds me of an inverted triangle shape. The dominant gland is the adrenal gland, which produces androgens in women.
They have an athletic figure and strong muscles. Very efficient, they say what they need less sleep than other somatic types. They have a cheerful disposition, are sociable and friendly. They are often leaders. They are willing to play sports and are generally physically active in life.
Determining body type by wrist
In medicine, especially in obstetrics, body structure is determined by the size of the wrist. The size indicates the thickness of the bones of the owner of this part of the body. There are three morphotypes or constitutions of women:
- Asthenic
- Normosthenic
- Hypersthenic
In sports you may come across slightly different names: ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph, respectively. Wrist circumference is the Solovyov index. In the first type it is less than 15, in the second it is 15-17, and in a hypersthenic or endomorph it is more than 17.
New silhouettes of female figures
It turns out that the female figure has undergone changes over the last century and scientists had to introduce a couple more new vegetables into the usual classification of “apple, pear, carrot, etc.” Now, when women gather in groups, you can see the whole garden plot. It's even getting funny...
So what does your body type look like? "butternut squash"? Such a woman resembles an hourglass, but due to the fact that over the past decades women's waists have become wider, then with equal volumes of shoulders and hips, the waist still falls slightly short of the clock. An hourglass has a difference between the waist and hips of more than 25 cm, and a nutmeg pumpkin is somewhere around only 20-25 cm. It turns out that Kim Kardashian, beloved by many, is only a pitiful semblance of an hourglass - the nutmeg pumpkin))
Have you ever seen a figure "eggplant"? In fact, this is the same pear, but without a pronounced waist.
The interesting thing is that "broccoli" similar to carrots, but with more curvaceous breasts. This transformation of carrots into broccoli is probably due to plastic surgeons.

And in the next article we will look at what clothes are right for you. and receive only the most delicious articles to your E-mail. And now short video about how to choose a dress for the most common body types.
That's all for me! With warmth and care, Ravila.
Why does the same dress look different on you and your friend, even if the weight and height are the same? It turns out that you just different types female figures. The specific body type will depend on the development/structure of various body tissues (muscle, fat, bone), which is largely determined by genetics, although it can be corrected through physical exercise and diet.
All women are beautiful and individual. Each body has its own pros and cons. Therefore, in order to train more effectively, choose the right outfits and look more attractive, you need to know your body type. How to define it? Today we will find out.
The figure is the original physique that was given by your parents (“inheritance,” so to speak), because it is more predetermined by genetics than by lifestyle. Exercise and proper nutrition can only help you maintain your figure, while metabolism, fat distribution and muscle structure are extremely difficult to change without aggressive measures.
No ideal types shapes, but you can get closer to the ideal using various ways– sports and, again, proper nutrition. Although an important role is played correct selection clothes.
On a note! Ideas about the ideal female figure are constantly changing. So, in prehistoric times were considered very attractive big women. In ancient times, the standard of beauty was a slender and graceful woman with long legs and small breasts.
A medieval beauty is, first of all, a mother. Therefore, the ideal figure of that time included a rounded belly, a not very pronounced waist and hips - in a word, nothing feminine. It has continued for a long time, but in the twentieth century the idea of an ideal figure has changed dramatically. Women who had slim stomach and long slender legs. Then, in fact, the “90/60/90” stereotype appeared. But in reality, it is not so much the individual parameters that are important, but their proportion.
For this reason, they began to classify the typical characteristics of female figures. This classification is based precisely on the proportional ratio of shoulders, waist and hips. To be honest, it is not the only one (read more about other classifications further), but we will still start with the classics. Traditionally, female figures are compared either with vegetables/fruits, or with geometric shapes, or with letters of the Latin alphabet.
Why 90/60/90 is the standard perfect figure? How to determine your body type?
Based on the characteristics mentioned above, there are 5 main types of female figures:
- "apple";
- "hourglass";
- "triangle";
- "rectangle";
- "inverted triangle"
If you want to find out which type you belong to, you must prepare a measuring tape and take only 3 measurements.
- Hips. Determine the volume of your hips at their widest part, making sure that the measuring tape is parallel to the floor.
- Waist. Determine its volume by the narrowest part (slightly above the navel), while the stomach cannot be protruded or retracted.
- Breast. Determine the volume over a regular bra without a push-up, focusing on the most protruding point. Keep the tape parallel to the floor.
After this, you can begin to evaluate the results obtained.
- If the volume of your hips and chest is approximately the same, and your waist is 20-30 cm smaller, then you have an hourglass figure.
- If your legs are slender and your stomach, waist and chest stand out the most, then you have an “apple” shape (“circle”).
- If the volume of your hips and chest is approximately the same, and your waist does not stand out very much against their background, then you are a real “rectangle”.
- If your shoulders look wider than your hips and your chest is larger than your lower body, then you have a T-shaped figure (i.e., an “inverted triangle”).
- Finally, if your waist is visible and your chest volume is less than your hip volume, then you are a “pear” (“triangle”).
Now let’s take a closer look at the features of each type of female figure.
No. 1. “Hourglass” (other names: “guitar”, “figure X”, “figure eight”)
The classic body type, the notorious “90/60/90” - this is just about him. Such women are distinguished by equal volume of shoulders and hips, and a clearly defined waist. In a word, the parameters are proportional. Excess fat, if it appears, is distributed over the hips and chest, although this has its drawbacks. So, "guitars" with overweight may suffer from “ears” (also called “full hourglass”). However, even in this case, the woman does not lose her thin waist.
On a note! The X-shaped figure was considered an ideal during Antiquity. And if you belong to the group of “eights”, then we hasten to please you: the main thing in your case is not to violate harmonious proportions hips, waist and chest.
Wardrobe selection
The main task is to maintain the harmony of the bottom and top, emphasizing the curves. The good thing about an X-shaped figure is that almost any clothing will suit it., but in order to emphasize the curves of the body as beneficially as possible, we recommend giving preference to:
- fitted silhouettes;
- a belt at the waist as an additional accessory;
- coats, blouses and raincoats with belts and waistbands A home;
- high-waisted trousers/jeans;
- dresses and sweaters with a round or V-neck;
- pencil skirt.
Clothes that are not suitable for this body type:
- low-rise trousers/jeans;
- baggy outfits that hide the silhouette;
- blouses/dresses with low/high waist;
- straight cut outerwear.
Proper training
To maintain your figure, strength training should be interspersed with cardio training. You can resort to any type of cardiovascular activity (two half-hour sessions per week will be enough).
On a note! The most famous representatives of the “eight” include Monica Bellucci, Marilyn Monroe, Jessica Simpson, Sophia Loren, Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, Kim Kardashian.
No. 2. “Rectangle” (other names: “square”, “banana”, “slender column”, H-shaped figure)
In “rectangles,” as noted earlier, the hips and chest are equal in volume, and the waist is either not expressed at all, or is expressed but weakly (for example, 70 cm with a chest volume of 94 cm). Obviously, this is a more sporty and athletic physique (compared to the same “figure eight”), in addition, it is possible to visually increase the insufficient curve of the waist. Emphasizing the features of the figure in this case is to maintain harmony of the hips and shoulders, visually narrowing the waist. This can be achieved by creating additional volume elsewhere.
When a woman with such a figure gains weight, her silhouette becomes rectangular or O-shaped. Fat is deposited on the abdomen, forming a kind of “life preserver”.
Wardrobe selection
Attention is focused on beautiful legs and waist, between the bottom and top parts the body remains in balance. The best “rectangles” are:
- capris or classic straight trousers;
- coat with a belt, fitted outerwear;
- spaghetti strap tops;
- jeans or tight-fitting trousers with a low/medium rise;
- outerwear (including jackets) with a straight shoulder line;
- A-line skirt;
- dresses with waistband A home or without straps.
At the same time, those with an H-shaped figure are advised to avoid:
- oversized or baggy clothes;
- pencil skirts;
- outfits that excessively reveal the midriff;
- leggings;
- dresses and outerwear straight styles;
- turtleneck;
- tops, T-shirts with a crew neck or sleeveless.
Proper training
To correct such a figure, cardio activity should be minimized, using mainly a stepper. You can create a waist with abdominal exercises and the use of a hula hoop. It is important that the training is intense but short. Each muscle group should receive its own load weekly.
On a note! Famous “rectangles” are: Milla Jovovich, Anna Kournikova, Nicole Kidman, Cameron Diaz, Keira Knightley.
No. 3. “Pear” (other names: “triangle”, “spoon”, “trapezoid”, A-shape)
It is rightfully considered the most feminine. Characterized by rounded curvy hips, somewhat larger in volume than the shoulders. The stomach is usually flat, and the waist is quite thin.
Often "Pear" women cannot boast of large breasts– they are often flat, but a plastic surgeon, as you know, easily solves such problems. Let us also note that with such a figure, it makes no sense to torment yourself with diets. The A-shaped figure is preserved both with excess weight and with model weight. Therefore, it is better to draw attention to beautiful hands, collarbones or neck, for which you just need to use suitable clothing.
Wardrobe selection
The main goal is to balance the hips by focusing on the upper body. For this you can use:
- trapeze coat, fitted outerwear;
- jeans/trousers that widen at the bottom;
- any fitted outfits with padded shoulders (jackets, blazers, etc.);
- dark straight-leg trousers/jeans;
- tops, blouses and T-shirts (sleeveless, with bare shoulders or wide neckline);
- pencil skirt or a-line skirt.
- long straight coats, baggy outfits;
- skirts/trousers with numerous weighting elements (lace, folds, ruffles);
- turtlenecks, blouses and turtleneck tops;
- full skirts (including flared ones), trousers with decorative elements on the belt/pockets;
- massive and bright belts on the hips;
- tight-fitting trousers (especially light-colored ones).
Proper training
To correct the lower part, you can perform squats (the pace should be moderate), lunges and leg extensions on the machine. Moreover, to achieve better results, squats can be combined in long series (10-15 repetitions).
On a note! Among the celebrities who have this figure are: Christina Aguilera, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Beyoncé.
No. 4. “Inverted triangle” (other names: T-shape, “carrot”, Y-shape)
Women with this body type have narrow hips and broad shoulders. Legs are often slimmer and longer than others. Various stylistic techniques can visually enlarge the hips, reduce the shoulders and emphasize the waist. The best option for this is a straight cut, maximum detail on the hips and minimum in the chest area.
Wardrobe selection
The main goal is to balance the top and bottom, while you should not forget about the waist. The most suitable clothing for this:
- trapeze coat;
- A-line skirts with large pockets or pleats;
- blouses, tops and dresses with square or U-shaped necklines;
- large thigh straps;
- low-rise jeans/trousers;
- tops/dresses with frills below the waist.
At the same time, it is advisable to refuse:
- long skirts and pencil skirts;
- straight long coats;
- straight dark trousers;
- baggy outerwear;
- blouses and tops with a wide boat neckline;
- jackets and blouses with voluminous sleeves;
- voluminous bright jumpers/sweaters;
- dresses with false shoulders.
Note! Famous owners of a T-shaped figure are: Angelina Jolie, Katharine McPhee, Demi Moore.
No. 5. “Apple” (other names: O-shape, “oval”, “circle”, “rhombus”)
When compared with other types of female figures, this one is the most disproportionate, but it was precisely these women who were glorified in the paintings of Rubens. The most prominent part of the body of “apples” is the middle, i.e. the stomach and waist. The thighs and legs are relatively thin, as is the loin. If you gain excess weight, fat accumulates in this prominent part. Female body type "apple"
Wardrobe selection
The main task is to “stretch” the figure, emphasize the legs, neckline, and define the waist. For this it is preferable to use:
- plain outfits with vertical darts;
- trapeze coat, A-shaped outerwear;
- outfits with large elements below the hips;
- V-neck tops/blouses;
- dresses with A-line silhouettes;
- jeans/trousers with large pockets and flares.
At the same time, they are definitely not suitable for “apples”:
- tight skirts and pencils;
- baggy clothes;
- skinny jeans/trousers or low-rise;
- short tops, turtlenecks;
- outfits with frills, bright prints or decorative details on the stomach/shoulders.
Apple body type: putting it together basic wardrobe Proper training
To lose weight, regular cardio activity is required - for example, on a stepper or treadmill. The waist can be shaped using a hoop and abdominal exercises.
On a note! The most famous “apples”: Britney Spears, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jessica Jones.

Metabolic typification of female forms
As already noted, the classification presented above is not the only one. Below is another one - by metabolic types. Let's take a closer look at it.
Table. Metabolic body types.
| Name, photo | Short description |
|---|---|
 | The dominant gland in such women is the pituitary gland. Metabolism in this case is slow and sluggish, fat accumulates well, and fluid is also retained well. Such ladies tend to be overweight since childhood. The type has something in common with the previously described “apple”. |
 | The dominant gland is the thyroid. These women usually have normal weight, and often even have a thin build. This type has something in common with the “rectangle”. Women look “boyish”, have narrow shoulders, small breasts and sharp limbs. |
 | Most feminine type. The dominant activity is of female hormones and ovaries. Somewhat reminiscent of an “hourglass” and a “pear”. Fat tissue is distributed mainly on the buttocks and thighs. |
 | The figure of such women is very similar to a man’s – the shoulders are wide, the hips are narrow. Echoes the “inverted triangle”. The predominant gland is the adrenal gland, which produces androgens. |
How to determine your body type based on your wrist?
This is really possible - body type is determined by the wrist in medicine (especially in obstetrics). The size of the wrist indicates the thickness of the woman’s bones in that part of the body. In this regard, the type of figure can be:
- asthenic;
- hypersthenic;
- normosthenic.
Wrist circumference is an indicator also known as the Solovyov index. In the first case it is less than 15, in the second – over 17, and in the third – from 15 to 17, respectively.
About new types of female figures
Few people know, but recently the female figure has changed so much that scientists had to supplement the usual classification with several new “vegetables.” This is, first of all, "butternut squash". Something similar to an hourglass, but with more wide waist(over 25 cm - about 20-25 cm).
There is another figure "eggplant"– essentially the same “pear”, but the waist is not so pronounced. And finally "broccoli"– a figure type that resembles a “carrot”, but with more voluminous breasts. By the way, thanks plastic surgery any “carrot” can quickly turn into “broccoli”.

As a conclusion
As a result, we note that any female figure changes over time by no means better side. This is common knowledge. But Japanese scientists have found that age-related changes occur in a certain sequence. It looks something like this.
