Most styling advice uses vague categories ("pear shapes should wear A-line skirts"). This tool uses your actual measurements to recommend a hem length in centimeters, a neckline shape, and where to add visual weight — derived from ratios, not labels.
Use a soft tape measure. For best results, ask someone to help, or measure over light clothing.
Fill in at least your height, bust, waist, and hip to see your body shape, hem length recommendations, and more.

Divide your waist by your hip. Below 0.75 is classically associated with hourglass proportions. 0.75–0.85 is the typical "rectangle/pear" range. Above 0.85 often indicates apple-shaped weight distribution. WHR is the single most informative number for clothing recommendations.
Shoulder width divided by hip. Above 1.05 = broader shoulders than hips (inverted triangle). Below 0.95 = wider hips than shoulders (pear/triangle). Around 1.0 = balanced (hourglass or rectangle). This number drives neckline and epaulet recommendations.
Roughly: (inseam × 1.05) ÷ height × 100 = % of your height that is legs. Average is around 45–48%. Above 50% = long legs (can carry most hemlines). Below 45% = shorter legs relative to torso (high-waisted bottoms and shorter hemlines will visually lengthen).
Midi hem = where a mid-calf skirt hits to balance your proportions. Pant inseam = the inner-leg length of pants that will fall correctly. Neckline width = how wide a neckline opening should sit for visual balance. Waist emphasis = vertical position on your torso where belts/waistbands should land.
Within 1 cm (or 0.5 inch) is plenty. The recommendations use ratios, so small absolute errors don't matter as long as they're consistent across measurements. The most important measurement to get right is probably your height — it's used as a denominator for several ratios.
Stand straight against a wall. Have someone mark the outer edge of each shoulder bone (the bump at the tip of your shoulder). Measure between the marks. If alone, you can use a well-fitting jacket as a proxy — measure across the back at the shoulder seam from one side to the other.
Because the numbers come from your ratios, not from fixed tables. A person with a long torso gets a different midi length than a person with a long leg. The output is personalized to your specific body, which is the entire point.
Border cases happen — most people are not 100% one shape. The tool picks the closest fit, but you can read the recommendations as a starting point and pick which feels truer to your mirror. Most "border" cases are between hourglass and rectangle, or between pear and apple.
The tool is neutral about body goals. It produces recommendations based on your actual measurements — there's no assumption that "longer legs" is a goal, only that the math holds. If you want recommendations that go against your proportions (e.g., low-rise pants for someone with short legs), the output will still inform you of the trade-off.
Recommendations are derived from classical proportion rules (the "rule of thirds," golden ratio approximations, hem-length conventions from fashion schools) applied to your specific ratios. The math is rule-based, not learned from a dataset.
Best use case: you've found a clothing item you like but want a sanity check on whether the proportions work for your frame. Worst use case: using these numbers to gate-keep yourself from clothes you actually love.

Body proportion recommendations are aesthetic guidelines based on classical proportion theory. They are not medical, ergonomic, or body-positivity advice.
Individual body shapes vary widely. Personal comfort, accessibility needs, cultural dress, and self-expression should take precedence over any algorithmic recommendation. The numbers here are starting points, not verdicts.
If you have specific fitting concerns (e.g., prosthetics, sensory issues, post-surgical changes), consult a tailor or adaptive clothing specialist.
