I’m relatively small chested (though not too small), with a small waist and extremely large hips for my size (I’m 5′5 and 110 lbs). I look like a pear, lol. What kinds of clothing would look good on me? I have difficulties finding real cute clothes.
Just so everyone knows, I’m not ashamed of my hips. I really do love them and feel that they give me character. I just want to be able to wear clothes that don’t draw too much attention to them and that are comfortable (but cute) to wear.

    wide and sturdy hips make you ideal for childbearing …lol
    i think girls look cute in sweatpants and sweatshirts; but that’s just me

    ahhh i wish i had your body. i have a slim waist and a big chest for my age and a curve the runs along my stomach but stops at my hips because quiet frankly i dont have an so when i wear tight pants it looks like i have a muffin top LOL. haha its okay though. But the best type of clothing for you would be high waisted flare/straight jeans! Pencil skirts….herve dresses…i will find some pics for you.

    I’m the exact same way
    and I think dresses make me look smaller

    but most guys like girls with hips, I always get compliments when I wear jeans and bikinis…

    I wouldnt try to hide it, I’d show it off….real women have curves :))

    Color is essential.

    As we all know, black makes you look thinner, white makes you look fatter.

    For your body shape, I suggest darker hues for your pants/skirt, and brighter hues for your shirt/blouse.

    And don’t forget — guys LOVE large hips. So don’t let your eyes deceive you when you look in the mirror. Get a honest opinion from a guy friend about your butt size and take it to heart (and for heaven’s sake, put your emotions in the closet when you hear the answer!).

    High waisted pants for sure . Definitely don’t wear hipster. Good luck

    Im 5′3 and pretty slim but like you i have big hips.So what i usually do is wear high heels or platforms(which is pretty in now)and yes those wide legged pants you see all over the runway?that also works but preferably in a dark colour.I wouldn’t advice pencil skirt because thats something most girls can’t carry off.And yeah flowy dresses..

    High waisted pencil skirts or jeans look fabulous on girls with little waists and big hips. After all, they came out in a time period where clothing was made for your body type. Also, A-Line skirts minimise big hips.

    A-line dresses or shift dresses are good for big hips. Tunic top (top that are long to cover hips) also minimize hips tummy.
