Body Types vs Lingerie

Contributor: Cherrylane Cherrylane 12/15/2011

Been trying on a lot lingerie lately and noticing how different things fit my particular body type and was wondering what styles of lingerie people feel most flatters their body type.

Just pick the poll most relavant to your shape and pick the style you usually find most flattering

Note, this isn't necessarily what you find most appealing or "ideally" prefer.

Hourglass figures are usually said to be those where the bust and hip measurements are of equal size or within an inch of each other and the waist is more than 9 inches smaller than the bust or hip measurement.

What styles of lingerie are most flattering to an hourglass figure?

i feel like pretty much everything would look good on an hourglass figure, but i think bra/panty sets look the best.

I am hour glass, and plus size with large breasts and ass. Def corsets, anything with garters, and I really love low cut/empire waist chemises

A baby-doll I think makes your body look more flowy and smooth though corsets give you the BAMM!! Yeah I got curves and I can work them!!

You'd be surprised, but exaggerated hourglass shapes (like mine) mean that almost NOTHING fits, especially in the cup size section. I'm at 36 DDD >_<.

How I wish I was blessed with an hourglass. Oh well. I think a Corset looks amazing on those figures.

I wish I had at least DD's, I have wide hips and my tummy is sorta big, so if my tits were bigger, I think it would kinda help. lol

I've got a bit of an hourglass, not dramatic, but my bust and hips are about the same and on the curvy side of average, and my natural waist is noticeably smaller. And even though I'm like most women and don't love my body, I'm not far off from the body I want. I already have the shape "type", I love hourglasses. Just need to tone up here and there. But I think most styles look really sexy on an hourglass.

I'm an exaggerated, "soft" hourglass. Almost nothing fits correctly because It's hard to fit my bra size in mass produced lingerie. But I do like waist cinchers and cupless corsets, so I can wear a bra that fits.

im actually a hourglass figure, even tho i have a large belly on me, im 275 pounds (working on my diet) with my size breasts and hips, it's hard to find lingeri that fit me, so corsets are not in for me, but i think they are sexy on a hourglass figure, ill stick with the babydolls and teddies!

i love corsets and bustiers but being bigger means not all of them fit correctly so it takes a lot of looking to find ones that are flattering

Hourglass best describes my figure, but I also got a bit of a stomach on me. I prefer corset and babydolls that cover my stomach and hips.

I've got an hourglass. Bra and panties look fine to me, as well as corsets. I like babydolls; I like how they look. However, I also prefer opaques, not see-through clothing. So, I feel babydolls do not work on me, because I just look like I'm swimming in fabric. I like my waist to be seen, but in a babydoll, it just isn't, and I don't feel attractive as a result.

At most, I think corsets are more flattering to the hourglass shapes. But personally, I prefer wearing babydolls or chemises because they are more comfortable and the fabric is usually more breathable.
