Hi all, I am an inverted triangle (an upside down triangle) with a 38 inch bust....a 28 inch waist and 35 inch hips. Am I the only odd shaped woman out there? Anyone else similar to my shape???

    Nope, I'm an inverted triangle. I don't have measurements, but regardless of what they say, I have very large arms (sigh, so much arm fat!!) and a large chest cavity, as well as fatter upper abs and less fat lower abs and hips. I definitely consider myself disproportionate, though not obscenely so. Don't worry, there are plenty of upside down triangles out there along with ya, I know many of them myself!

    I'm shaped like a kumquat. I posted for support, and nothing.

    This thread isn't a very good follow up for the dirty girls unite & bad apple threads... ;-)

    But, since you asked, I feel like a rectangle. lol
    Most likely a triangle.

    Wouldn't an inverted triangle have hips not much different then waist, your's are 7" larger, your numbers sound more like hourglass.

    No...I was told by the Hourglass group that in order to have an Hourglass figure you need to have a large bust and large hips. My hips are smaller then most

    I have looked at size charts and my top is a size 10...my waist is a size 6 to 8 and my hips are a size 4 so no, I am not an hourglass shape.
