If you have a pear-shaped (a.k.a. triangle-shaped) body, you know that dress shopping can be a little tricky. Having a pear silhouette means your hips and thighs are wider than your shoulders and chest, which means your waistline is automatically snatched. And that’s fab! The issue is that a lot of dresses aren’t built for a pear shape, so finding something to flatter your lovely figure can become frustrating.
One style we love for a pear shape is a halter dress. There are two styles of halter, especially, that flatter in different ways. The kind with a high neckline can make your shoulders appear broader, balancing out your shape more thoroughly, while a halter dress with a V-neckline does a little bit of the same while also drawing attention to the waist. Want to see some examples? We’ve picked out 17 that we love!
