How to dress a fat pear.

2 replies

TheUnexpectedMorrisDancer · 08/09/2014 00:28

Just that really. I'm a fat pear shape, 18 on top and 20 in bottoms. I am tired of feeling old and fat and frumpy. There isn't much I can do about my age (just turned 38),I am currently losing weight ( down a dress size already), so the only issue I can tackle immediately is the frump!
Skinny jeans make me look like a parsnip, tops that cover my 38J boobs look like tents, and tops that gives me some resemblance of a waist cling to my hips!
The look I'm drawn to tends to be baggy wide legged jeans and slub t shirts with a cardy and converse. But I feel I'm getting a bit old for this, so how do I smarten this look up, while still being comfortable and practical.
Please help me!

Wear Dresses.

Pears look great in dresses.

Hi there- I'm the same, but hate dresses too!

I tend to wear wide leg trousers, but with fitted tops that have a bit of stretch (those without just look awful).

Will be interested to hear more ideas Smile
