    Anyone ever heard of Valeria Lukyanova?

    She'd be pretty if it wasn't for the eyes. How has she managed to have totally dead eyes in every single picture? Creeeeepy.

    I'm 5'1, 36-25-36.6

    Though I've now entered the phase where I'm FINALLY losing inches on my hips and thighs. Hello standard jeans that actually fit at both hip and waist! I'm also now losing inches on my calves and may be able to fit into boots, yay!
    Mid-rise jeans are the best friends of hourglasses and pears! No need to fit the waist. :-)

    you'd think so but no :( If I want any fit at the back (i.e. that the waist doesn't stick out or bunch up under the belt) then I can't go for anything other than Levi's. Which are expensive, what with me trying to save up for a wedding... I think my problem is made worse by the fact that I'm so short; so what WOULD be a mid-rise for a normal-size person is like an inch off for me.

    Have you tried low-rise? They're TOO low for me, but if the mid-rise are too high, the low-rise might work. Old Navy jeans tend to look pretty good on my body.

    Midrise usually ends up being at my waist or even SLIGHTLY above, too, because I'm so darn short, but I still have way too much belly fat to wear low rise.

    @%#$*@^%%#!!!!!

    I will say though that I have the most luck with midrise with avoiding the dreaded gap in the back of my pants. Old Navy seems to be the BIGGEST offender in that area, the pair that I have has like a FIVE inch gap in the back, they are virtually unwearable LMAO. I've had a lot of luck with Lee jeans, though, of all things, and I want to try Levi's (I haven't worn a pair of Levi's in at least 25 years, I am scared they won't fit. Yes, I am weird. lol)

    lol, I know, right? You get the jeans on past the calves and thighs, you close the button and the damn back is sticking out so that if I don't wear a belt, they'll drop to my hipbones not only charmingly exposing the plumber-*kitten* but also lowering the crotch , the knees and the bottom hems. If I DO wear a belt though, the back will then bunch up. Though the weirdest I ever experienced was that the jeans stuck out at back AND front. While my thighs were barely fitting in the leg. I mean, ok, I don't have the world's smallest thighs but come on?

    She's not "real" though. The eyes are okay in this picture http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lVI5aw-vW0s/T695Wx5UnkI/AAAAAAAADjk/51uyNb0XEWM/s1600/Valeria+Lukyanova+7.jpg

    Bust: 40
    Waist at navel: 32 1/2
    Hips: 40
    For years before I was 44 / 34 / 44 I am hoping to reclaim my glass at some point possibly by getting 38/28/38 to begin with, hey I can dream :wink:
    Oh and I am 5ft 4.
  • Definitely hourglass...sometimes I feel blessed and other days I feel the curse of the curves!

    You're measuring your bust wrong to determine hourglass. You take the inches around the largest part of the bust, not bra size. I had to learn that the hard way! lol

    Well, she paid for the surgeries so I'd say everything is real. Rib removal doesn't seem that extreme compared to rhinoplasty and a boob job. She's pretty in the before picture, too.
  • i'm not sure tbh i'm 5'4 and my body measurements at the moment are 36- 25-37 but i want to become 34-21-34 i don't know how i'm going to accomplish such a small waist but i shall try i need to lose all my fat mass and gain lean muscle mass so i don't put the weight back on in my stomach.

    Ladies... I thought you measured your shoulders, natural waist, hips. That your shoulders and hips should be within an inch of each other, and your waist 8-15 inches smaller than hips and shoulders. Your bust doesn't have anything to do with it.

    I'm a high hip hourglass (or figure 8/spoon), so I carry my weight a bit different.
    But I'm 5'5 121lbs
    Bust: 34 (or 32C)
    Waist: 26 5/8
    Hips: 35 1/2

    Goal:
    Bust: Same
    Waist: 24-22
    Hips: 34-32

    I still have 8% body fat left to lose, so I'm pretty sure I can make it :D

  • I'm 5ft 7.5ish and 35-30-36 so....not sure if i'm hourglass as such?

    Bust:35
    Waist:25
    Hips:35

    I'm 5ft4
  • 5"10 currently 275lbs.

    I wouldn't know my shoulder measurements, so here are my old and new ones.
    Old
    Bust : 51"
    Waist: 47"
    Hips: 54.5"

    New
    Bust: 51"
    Waist: 42.5"
    Hips: 52.5"

    It's going slowly but I can't really see it. I miss my hourglass curves. :(

    I'm 5'6 and weigh about 212 lbs. My rough measurements are (I did them myself the best I could :-/ )

    Bust 44
    waist 35
    hips 47

    Not sure if that's quite hourglass though. I know when I'm actually at a good weight I have a pretty nice rack (says my husband who would love it if I got back down to 125/130 lbs.)

    Edited*

    Looked it up, I am but a few inches shy on my waist to be considered a true hourglass figure. However, I'm pretty darn close atm, and when I do lose the weight I am pretty sure I will be spot on again.

    "In a woman with a true hourglass figure, the measurements of hips and bust are essentially the same, and the waist measurement is equal to less than 75% of either the hip or bust measurement. The result is a very curvy figure which emphasizes broad hips and large breasts, two traits which have been prized historically in many cultures. In cultures where the hourglass figure is considered a beauty ideal, the narrow waist is considered a sign of femininity."

    I agree with you, because I see plenty of people with big boobies and hips who don't look very curvy or who look pear shaped, and likewise, I see people (including me) with smaller boobies but almost/matching hips to shoulders who look like .. a sillouhette of an hourglass, but some people don't agree.

    Oh well.

    Sorry your body is not in the 4 shapes we calculate.

    *fun happy sidenote - in fashion and in vintage it is the measurements of shoulders/hips - because bust has nothing to do with a face on silhouette.

    It's okay... I will stick to what I learned working at a lingerie boutique, sewing classes and modeling. Shoulders, natural waist, hips. I'm comfortable with my interpretation. The idea of an hourglass shape is going to be different amongst a lot of people.
  • I am kinda.

    I need to lose weight, so I can play the lead part in ballet.

    I hope I can lose weight in 6 months. And good luck with your goal. :)
