Pear Shape Figure
We are not one size fits all. A pear shape woman is similar to curvy shape, with one difference.
Generally, pear shaped women are smaller on the top and have fuller thighs & a larger behind.
But, ‘generally’ doesn’t fit all. You may be a pear shape but still have a different look than other pear shaped women.
Option 1: Modest Swim Suits for Pear Shaped Women
One pieces can still look good even with very modest taste. If you have a curvy shape, try to:

Petite Figure
If you have a petite figure, you are not one size fits all. There are many differences in this body shape. Use this guide to suit yourself. Petite figures usually are shorter in stature and are proportionate. If you are curvier but are still petite in height, check out the curvy shape page. If you are a thinner petite woman, the triangle tops and the thinner bottoms compliment your shape. In general here are suggestions that will suit you best:
- Stay away from higher waisted options as they will make you look sorter
- Wear suits higher on your hips
- Wear triangle tops that take the focus off your neck (with a closed neckline it can make you look shorter)
- Halter tops and fun embellishments are a fun addition
