Apple

Waist similar to or larger than bust and hips. Empire-waist, wrap dresses, and V-necklines create balance.

Female Body Shape FAQs

Is this calculator only for women?
Yes — the categories and notes are female-specific. Men should use the Male Body Type Calculator.
Can female body shape change?
Yes. Weight change, hormonal shifts, pregnancy, and ageing can all alter measurements. Re-take and recalculate as needed.
What if I do not fit one shape neatly?
Many women sit on the boundary between two shapes. Notes from the adjacent shape will often also apply.
Does body shape affect health?
Body shape is a style and proportion guide. For health-related insights, see our WHR Calculator.
How should I measure if I am pregnant or postpartum?
Wait until your body settles before relying on the result. Measurements change rapidly during and after pregnancy.
Are my measurements stored anywhere?
No. The calculator runs entirely in your browser. Closing the tab clears all values.
