I always thought I was an apple, really, but found a calculator you put actual measurements into and it came up with that.

So carrot shaped, essentially.

Anyone else shaped like that?

Can you link to the calculator?

I don't seem to be any of the traditional shapes Confused

brighthair · 24/04/2012 19:08

I am some kind of bizarre hourglass/top heavy/ apple hybrid Grin

tak1ngchances · 24/04/2012 19:09

I am an hourglass. I bet we are all using different calculators. OP can you link to yours?

LaVitaBellissima · 24/04/2012 19:17

Me, I think Confused

MrsLettuce · 24/04/2012 19:24

Oh, I was right for once! Yes, me too.

GoblersKnob · 24/04/2012 19:25

I am a rectangle, always thought I was an apple.

Am strangely pleased with this information even though I obviously look exactly the same.

helloitsme · 24/04/2012 19:30

I don't believe it! My body shape type is...wait for it....unavailable! What the heck is that? It says a small percentage of women just don't fit in, and it seems I am one....

brighthair · 24/04/2012 19:30

Had to use another one as it wouldn't work on my phone. Hourglass according to measurements

DuffyMoon · 24/04/2012 19:34

i'm a fucking spoon Hmm Shock

ouryve · 24/04/2012 19:35

I'm straight.

Now there's a revelation. :o

Most of the clothing suggestions they gave make me look like a sack of spuds tied in the middle.

goodtimesarecoming · 24/04/2012 19:36

I am also a spoon!!!

mirpuppet · 24/04/2012 19:37

I'm a pear -- always a pear.

AuntieMaggie · 24/04/2012 19:37

I'm a pear according to that one, but I really don't need to enhance my 40f bust!

If they'd made up more flattering words for this shit, I'm sure we'd all feel a whole lot better. I'm a sort of hourglass-spoony hybrid, thanks to my highish waist. Just the idea of looking like a frigging spoon does nothing for my morale.

waltermittymissus · 24/04/2012 19:40

I'm fat shaped! No calculator necessary ;)

FoofyShmooffer · 24/04/2012 19:41

I am a spoon.

Not sure why I'm not happy about that.

CMOTDibbler · 24/04/2012 19:42

I'm a spoon too. Fat gut, no bust.

WyrdMother · 24/04/2012 19:43

I'm a carrot! 3 sizes bigger on my top half.

Shopping for bottoms easy.

Shopping for tops nightmare.

Ben10NeverAgain · 24/04/2012 19:48

I'm a pear as expected. Fat arse, no boobs!

BonnieBumble · 24/04/2012 19:48

I always thought I was an apple but I'm a rectangle.

ebbandflow · 24/04/2012 19:53

I am a pear-as per usual, the fact my hips are 6" wider than my bust might have something to do with it.
