Your Body. Your Shape. Your Style.
I get a lot of questions along the lines of what Trinny and Susannah body shape am I, usually accompanied by some measurements. Telling from a bunch of measurements is not particularly easy. But, there are a few easy steps that will help you categorise your body shape. And the best person qualified to name [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Brick is described as broad shoulders, no waist, average tummy, flat bum, chunky thighs and chunky calves. Basically a Brick is straight up and down, but, unlike a Column which is also straight up and down, you’re likely to be stockier. A Column is tall and slender with no discernable waist, [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Vase is described as big tits, gently curving longer waist, hips equal tits and slim thighs and legs. A vase is basically a taller, sleeker hourglass. There’s still the big curves going on at hip and breasts but the waist is long and only gently curves where in an Hourglass or [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Apple is described as average tits, tummy bigger than tits, quite flat bum and ok legs. If you’re an apple the best way to describe you is round. Your tummy is your widest part and pretty much dictates what you can and can’t wear. As is always the case highlight the [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Cello is described as big boobs, short waist, big hips, big bottom, big thighs and slim lower legs. Basically, a cello is big, but unlike a Brick or an Apple or Skittle everything is basically proportionate with a definite waist though quite short. In the past you may have considered yourself [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Cornet is described as broad shoulders, small boobs, no waist, slim hips and long slim legs. The Cornet is athletic, slender, sometimes to the point of shapelessness, but always willowy. The taller Cornets end up as models as your almost boyish frame is prized by designers to show off their clothes. [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Skittle is described as average tits, slim waist, ok tummy, big thighs, chunky calves. I’ve got to say I’ve had great difficulty working out the difference between a skittle and a pear. The differences are subtle but definitely quite distinctive in terms of dressing. Both a Pear and Skittle have a [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Hourglass is described as big tits, small waist, short waist, big hips and generous thighs. An hourglass, in Trinny and Susannah’s array of shapes, is curvy and has a tiny waist. Of course so does the Vase but the difference between a Vase and an Hourglass is the waist. Both have [...]
Trinny and Susannah’s the Column is described as shoulder width the same as hip width, slight waist and longer legs. The Column is the racehorse of the group, all gangly long limbs and careless elegance. You do have curves, but sometime they just seem to disappear and you end up looking like a, um, column. [...]
The Bell is described a small shoulders, small tits, small waist, short waist, big thighs and big bottom. The Bell, along with the Pear and the Skittle is from the family of those bigger on the bottom. The Bell shares similar proportions on the bottom half as the Skittle with a short waist, wide hips, [...]
