The characteristics of a pear body shape are small bust, long waist, flat stomach, saddlebags and heavy  legs.

The goal is to minimize the hips and thighs, whilst creating the illusion of curves above the waistline.

For the pear shape body avoid wearing bias cut skirts, pencil skirts, skinny jeans and ankle straps.

Instead opt for long A-line skirts, strapless dress with full skirt, delicate chiffon shirt with puffed sleeves, shoulder enhancing shrugs/boleros and chunky heels.

Celebrities who have the pear body shape are Katie Holmes and Sandra Bullock.
