Website Review – My Shape
Posted by hennasplace on Tuesday, October 23, 2007
I like to read magazine as with others who read them discover new products, services and get ideas. I came across a little tidbit in the July 2007 issue of O Magazine about a website called My Shape (www.myshape.com). The concept of My Shape is finding clothes that fit your body type that flatters you. My Shape devised seven body types to determine what clothes flatters your figure best. You can enter your body measurements, the site calculates and determines what body type works for you. I copied the body types so you can get an idea:
Women with softened, straight figures and fairly straight shoulderlines. They have rounded bottoms and the difference between their waist and hip measurements is 7 inches or more.
Broad-shouldered women with proportionally narrow hips and less defined waistlines.
Women with curvy front and side profiles as well as softened shoulderlines, whose waist measurements are at least 10 inches smaller than their balanced bust and hip measurements.
Women whose shoulders and hips are generally in line with each other and whose waist measurements are within 6 inches of their hip measurements. Often with flat bottoms in profile.
Women whose hips are broader than their busts and shoulders.
Women with busts larger than their hips and whose bottoms tend to be flat rather than rounded.
Women with rounded profiles whose waist measurements are proportionally larger than their more balanced bust and hip measurements. They’re often short-waisted and long-legged.
My Shape has a personal shopper that chooses clothes for your body type so you can shop online (there are some very nice items), and the clothes are appropriate for all ages. You can either shop online or get an idea to make the clothes if you are very particular about what you wear. various body types. I suggest that you give My Shape a visit and see if it helps you flatter your shape.

Be aware that they do not do exchanges as they state in their policy. Instead you need to wait for a credit, reorder the item, request any promotional pricing again and request the use of any credits that have been issued. I will not shop with them again as their written policy is a lie and they only tell you that afterwards. My experience has been long, frustrating and will not be repeated.
