Style Guide - The Pear body shape

Looking stylish is all about knowing how to dress your figure. So we’ve been working on our guide to body shapes and how to look your best.

Over the next few days we’re going to be talking about different body shapes and what pieces in the new collections are perfect to complement your individual figure. So look out for new updates coming soon.
The Pear body shapeIf you are bigger around the hips, bottom or thighs than you are up top then, like the majority of women, you are a Pear. Focus on adding more shape and structure above the waist.Bring out your best :The Hayley skirt is perfect for pear shapes; the bow detail emphasises your waist and it glides over the hips, if you love dresses try the polly dress. The Rebecca skirt is another great option.
Balance out your hips by trying our new wide leg trouser or the perennial favourite the bootcut.
Go for wide lapels and structured shoulders, our Nicola Jacket with its gorgeous shoulder detail and flattering longer length along with the Anna jacket which has contemporary wider lapels are ideal.
