Frequently Asked Questions
For the best results, use a soft measuring tape. Measure your **bust** at the fullest part, your **waist** at the narrowest point (usually just above the belly button), and your **hips** at the widest part around your buttocks. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight.
The most common classifications are **Hourglass** (curvy, balanced bust/hips), **Pear/Triangle** (hips wider than bust), **Inverted Triangle** (bust wider than hips), **Rectangle** (straight, athletic build), and **Apple** (rounder midsection).
Yes. Weight gain, weight loss, pregnancy, and hormonal changes (like menopause) can alter fat distribution, effectively changing your body shape over time. For example, many women shift towards an Apple shape post-menopause.
This specific calculator uses the standard fashion industry algorithms which are primarily designed for female body proportions. Men typically fall into categories like Rhomboid, Inverted Triangle, or Rectangle, but the waist/hip ratios used here are optimized for women's styling.
The 'Rectangle' shape (or straight shape) simply means your bust, waist, and hip measurements are mathematically similar (within about 5-10% of each other). You can still be curvy or plus-sized and have a Rectangle shape if your proportions are balanced without a drastic waist differentiation.
WHR is calculated by dividing your waist measurement by your hip measurement. It is a key indicator not just for body shape, but for health. A WHR over 0.85 in women is sometimes associated with higher health risks, regardless of body shape.
The goal is usually to create visual balance. If you are a Pear, add volume to your top half. If you are an Inverted Triangle, add volume to your hips. If you are a Rectangle, use belts to create the illusion of a waist. If you are an Hourglass, accentuate your natural waist.
No. As long as you use the same unit for all measurements (all inches or all cm), the calculator works perfectly, as it relies on ratios rather than absolute values.
