body type?
Okay so I'm 5'8 and 120 pounds... i'm a 32b - 25 inch waist - and 37 inch hips... i have longish legs.. prob like a 33 inseam.. I was trying to figure out what my body type is. I was thinking pear because my hips are bigger than my bust, but I was reading the description for pear and it said small shoulders (and mine are fairly large) and excess fat around the hips, butt, and thighs, which i don't have (i have fairly large bone structure which is why my hip measurement is kinda big). I don't think my breasts are big enough to be an hourglass though. So what am I?
I was also kinda curious if 37 is way too big of a hip measurement to be a model? I'm not at all interested in it but i've been told by some people that i could model and I feel like i'm a bit larger than models mainly because of my hips.

You are more than likely a pear shaped body type. Remember its just a generalizing everyone into two different categories which are apple and pear shapes. A pear shape is a person who carries most of their weight around their hips waist and thighs. So if that is where most of your weight is than most likely you fit into that category also.
How that helps and as for as being to big for a model with you hip measurement it just depends on the type of modeling you want to do. At your height and weight you shouldn't really have too many problems.

I think you are a pear. You might not be exactly the same, but not many people fit the exact description. For example, I'm an hourglass, but I don't have broad shoulders like hourglasses are supposed to.
As for 37 being too big a measurement, I'm not sure, it might be. Try searching 'required measuremenst for models'.
It's different for different types of models though - catalogue models, catwalk models, editorial models, glamour models etc.
