As you may be able to see from my measurements, (and pictures soon enough) I am not quite hourglass - much more of a pear due to the weight I gained years ago going mainly to my hips. I believe I used to have an hourglass shape to my body and people have certainly commented that it is the shape that seems to be reappearing.
So I am inspired both by women of the past and present, and I thought I'd share a few with you.
All 'past' pictures thanks to Prelude's Hourglass Figure List.
Who?
Of the past:
Sophia Loren
She has the best natural hourglass figure in my opinion. She is just completely beautiful and very classic.
Rita Hayworth
Marylin Monroe
I couldn't post about hourglasses and not include Marylin!
Brigitte Bardot
And Hourglasses of the Present Day:
Scarlett Johansson
My favourite hourglass :)
Kelly Brook
Although teeny, she has a body to die for.
Christina Hendricks
Made famous for appearing in the hit series 'Mad Men', this girl has some cracking curves. I find her very inspirational shape-wise!
Halle Berry
(Sorry for the terrible photo of Halle Berry - I couldn't find any that weren't press shots!)
Who is your favourite hourglass?
