Fashion Tips for Pear Shaped Plus Sizes?

I'm asking this question for both my mother and myself!



My brother is getting married in May and my mother and I are both very bottom heavy pear shapes. I'm about a size 22/24 on the bottom and she is a 18/20 on the bottom.



My mother wants to wear and skirt and jacket combo but is unsure of what styles to go for to compliment her shape.

I will be 7 months pregnant and have NO idea what to wear to flatter my shape.



I know pear shapes should stick with V-neck lines and detailed necklines to balance our shoulders and draw the eye upwards; but are there any other things we should think about?



How long should my mum's jacket be?



Thanks in advance!

Here's the skinny on pear shaped. Oh, and when it comes to jackets for your mum, the emphasis on the smaller waist is more important that length and you might emphasize it with a lovely brooch or scarf or both.



Pear shaped women should choose both pants and skirts that feature flat fronts or are softly pleated as these kind of garments place emphasis on waist areas that are well defined and this is what you want. Hipster trousers are an excellent choice as these types of pants will do away with the problem of a gaping waist that is very common to women who have the pear shape. The most flattering styles for pear shaped women are A-line skirts and A-line wraps as these type of clothing call attention to a small waist while also slimming the hip area. Skirts that are short or tight are not recommended for pear shaped women as they will bring focus to the top portion of the thighs and will also divert attention to the area you do not want, which is below the waist.



Pear shaped women should avoid pants or skirts that are light in color and instead stick with the color black, as well as darker shades of browns and blues that will help to adequately absorb the light. Make an effort to accentuate the top half of your body by wearing tops that draw the eye upward such as fitted garments that have nice colors and patterns. As well choose tops with beautiful and very becoming necklines. Do not opt for baggy tops that fall well below the waist and hips but choose tops that at the top parts of the hip area so the waist will stand out.



Pear shaped women can do a lot with accessories. They should choose both scarves and jewellery that keep the attention away from their buttocks, hips and thighs and bring the attention upward. Two famous pear shaped women are English actress Kate Winslet and Emma Bunton (better known as Baby Spice, the youngest member of the band the Spice Girls).

your mom's jacket should come to the hips...not any lower.
