My body type is a bit pear-shaped, meaning my waist is slim but my hips are quite pronounced. I have a tough time choosing pants because they are either loose at the waist or tight at the hips. What do you think I should prefer in my daily style? I'm especially open to affordable suggestions since I can't take everything to a tailor.
My body is the same as yours, I'm literally having a nightmare with pants. The last ones I tried were high-waisted, stretchy mom jeans, they were great. I used a belt because my waist is slim, it looked both flattering and stylish. You should give it a try.
I'm sorry, but it seems like you're being a bit selective. My brother also has a narrow waist and wide hips, but he cares about his comfort. So there's no obligation for everything to fit perfectly. The main thing is to feel comfortable, I think 😂
If the hip-waist difference is pronounced, you should opt for cuts that are compatible with what we call the 'pear body shape.' High-waisted pants paired with a light-colored top and dark-colored bottoms create balance for this body type. Instead of skinny jeans, it's more appropriate to choose straight or slightly baggy styles.
Let me add that I feel really uncomfortable, especially in leggings or very skinny pants. I also feel more comfortable in dresses that sit at the waist, but those are always classic styles, which makes them tough for everyday wear. I'd love to hear any more casual suggestions if you have them 😂
I don't think you need to worry that much because the perception of beauty is also changing. In the past, slim-waisted women were in fashion, but now the focus is on hips. Instead of hiding your hips, you should consider turning this into an advantage. People on the street are already used to everything.
