Can you categorise yourself according to Trinny and Susannah's shapes??

I can not. I have done their on line thing and I still don't know.

I am small, not thin, not fat, hardly any boobs, tiny bit of a tummy (but it's not a problem) I have ok thighs, not big not thin and good shaped lower legs. Not much of a waist, but not straight up and down either.
My bum is bigger than I'd like and squarer than I'd like

My shoulders are narrowish and my wrists and ankles are tiny but I'm not one of those petite hardly there at all people either.

What does that sound like? NONE of T&S's shapes that's for sure.

Is it obvious to everybody else? Am I being a bit thick not being able to figure it out?

Did it not come up with an answer for you? I did it the other day and apparently I'm a vase...

MascaraOHara · 21/05/2008 16:49

what are you talking about? is there a link?

AMumInScotland · 21/05/2008 16:49

The one I used (Littlewoods site) asked lots of questions then said what I was, so I didn't have to work anything out myself...

I agree, I could be one of about 4 different choices I reckon.

toastedteacake · 21/05/2008 16:55

Here is a link to the Littlewoods body shape calculator According to that I am a vase...

cardy · 21/05/2008 16:56

I'm a column according to that...not sure it's right though.

Ledodgy · 21/05/2008 17:11

I'm a vase according to that too.

allgonebellyup · 21/05/2008 17:16

I am a cello, ironic, since I play one - is it like the theory that dogs and their owners end up looking alike?

It also might imply I have a long neck, but unfortunately, my neck is the bastard love child of sandi toksvig and jeanette Kranky.

Personally, I would define my shape more as a "blancmange"

GrapefruitMoon · 21/05/2008 18:05

I can't either.

Tall and fairly slim. Waist narrow relative to hips but small norks. Broad shoulders.

CarGirl · 21/05/2008 18:08

I thought I was column but when I looked at the apple shaped recommendations and don'ts they are much more appropriate than the column ones.

Do I am definately an aneorexic (sp?) apple, because I am petite & v short(have size 0 hipster jeans) but def apple shaped.

MascaraOHara · 21/05/2008 18:10

I am a column. I would say it's fairly accurate and I already tend to dress in line with their recommendations anyway.

ElizabethBeresford · 21/05/2008 18:52

I think now I am a column too even though I'm not tall. That's what threw me.

I can't. I have big thighs but am a size 10 with small tits and no waist.

PortAndLemon · 21/05/2008 19:14

I am an hourglass, albeit an hourglass with a lot of sand in it...

You sound like a short column to me. Or possibly a brick.

magicstatue · 22/05/2008 14:39

I can't seem to find my shape on this site either - I have quite big hips, small norks and a waist but I do have a tummy too, which seems contradict the advice that it gives me (apparently I'm a pear - just one that looks 4 months pregnant!)
