It certainly does for me depending on where I am weight-wise. When I'm at my ideal weight, my shoulders and hips are equal, with a 8-10" smaller waist so I would think I'm some kind of hourglass. But with an extra 20 lbs (current situation), it's all on my lower body which definately throws the proportions off. My opinion is that we all have a certain frame shape, then our weight accumulation pattern which is seperate. My mom for example has a pear-shaped frame, with very narrow shoulders, but she gains on her waist. JMHO. I also disagree that shape never changes.

I'm in great Cello Shape for my age. (would love my smaller waist back) So,I don't agree that shapes don't change.
