About

Standard body type calculators often fail because they oversimplify the female form into just four categories. This advanced tool uses a multi-variable algorithm to detect subtle architectural differences, such as the Spoon (shelf hips), Bell (gradual widening), or Column (uniform width). By analyzing high-hip vs. low-hip ratios and shoulder-to-bust differentials, we provide a percentage breakdown of your geometry.

This granular approach allows for accurate styling advice for "edge case" figures that don't fit standard molds. For example, a user might be 60% Hourglass but 40% Pear, meaning they need waist emphasis but also skirt shapes that accommodate a wider lower hip shelf.

Formulas

We employ a scoring system comparing differentials:

{
Spoon if (Hips - HighHip) > 2.0Bell if Thigh > Waist × 1.2

This ensures we capture mass distribution, not just skeletal width.

Frequently Asked Questions

The high hip is the measurement taken around your pelvic bone (iliac crest), usually about 2-3 inches below your navel. This is crucial for distinguishing between a standard "Pear" and a "Spoon" shape, which has a distinct shelf-like protrusion at the high hip.
Thigh measurements help identify "Bell" shapes, where weight is carried lower than the hips. Standard calculators miss this, often mislabeling Bell shapes as Pears, leading to ill-fitting pant recommendations.
