Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main body shapes?
The five main body shapes are: Hourglass (bust ≈ hips, small waist), Pear/Triangle (hips wider than bust), Apple/Round (waist ≈ bust and hips), Rectangle (all measurements similar), and Inverted Triangle (bust wider than hips).
How do I measure my bust, waist, and hips?
Bust: around the fullest part of the chest. Waist: at the natural waistline (narrowest point, usually above the belly button). Hips: around the widest part of the hip/buttock area. Measure with a soft tape, snug but not tight.
What is a healthy waist-to-hip ratio?
A WHR below 0.85 for women and below 0.90 for men is associated with lower health risks. Higher ratios may indicate increased risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, regardless of overall weight.
