Frequently asked questions
Which silhouettes suit a pear body type?
Bring some attention upward with detail at the neckline or sleeves. A-line skirts and dresses skim over the hips instead of clinging. A pear shape is hips wider than bust and shoulders, and every DIYO garment is cut to your own measurements, so the proportions the sketch promises are the proportions you get.
Which fabrics work best for a pear body type?
Georgette and floral cotton in A-line skirts and dresses, so the fabric skims the hips. Put the print, colour or detail on the top half to draw the eye upward.
Do I need to pick a size?
No. DIYO does not use a size chart — every garment is stitched to your own measurements. After you approve a quote we send a link on WhatsApp to enter them, and the sizing guide at /guides/sizing shows how to take each one at home.
How do I use this guide in the DIYO designer?
Choose the outfit category this guide points you to, then a hand-drawn sketch in that category, then a fabric from the fabric guides. Preview the finished design — on a model or on your own photo — and request a quote on WhatsApp from the preview screen.
