About Body Type Calculator
We built a free, simple tool that helps you understand your body proportions, choose clothes that fit, and track changes over time. Three measurements, a clear result, and no sign-up.
Simple by design
Bust, waist, and hips. That is all the calculator needs.
Our Mission
To make body shape and sizing easy to understand, so you can shop, dress, and plan with confidence.
Clothing sizes change from brand to brand, and a size label says very little about how a garment will fit your proportions. Body Type Calculator looks at how your bust, waist, and hips relate to one another, and turns those numbers into a clear, easy-to-read result.
We want that result to be useful, not judgmental. Body shape describes proportions. It does not describe attractiveness, fitness, or health, and every shape has its own strengths and styling options.
What We Do
The calculator turns a few tape measurements into a result you can use right away.
You measure
Take your bust or chest, waist, and hip measurements with a soft tape.
You enter them
Type them in or use the sliders. Inches and centimetres both work, for women and men.
You see your shape
Get your closest body shape, key ratios, and a drawing that updates as you change the numbers.
You use the result
Read the advantages, disadvantages, and styling ideas for your shape, then copy a link or download a PDF.
What We Stand For
A few simple principles guide how the tool and the guides are written.
Free for everyone
The calculator and the guides are free to use. You do not need an account.
Privacy first
Everything is calculated in your browser, and your measurements are not sent anywhere.
Proportions, not judgment
Shapes are patterns that help explain fit. There is no best body type, and we do not rank them.
Honest about limits
Different tools use different cut-offs, so we show the rules behind each result and say when it is only a guide.

Clear language, visible rules, and a reminder that a shape is only a starting point.
Our guides explain body shapes in plain language and use commonly cited rules of thumb, such as how close the bust and hips are, and how much smaller the waist is. We show these thresholds so you can see how a result is reached.
Because there is no single official formula, borderline measurements can give different results on different tools. If your numbers fall between two shapes, that is normal, and you can use the styling ideas from both.
Each guide shows a "Last updated" date, and we revisit pages when something needs correcting or improving.
Important

Is the calculator really free?
Yes. You can use the calculator and read the guides without paying or creating an account.
Do you save my measurements?
No. Everything is calculated in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. If you use the "Copy link" button, your numbers are added to the link, so they are visible to anyone you share it with.
Is this medical advice?
No. Body shape describes proportions only. It cannot show your health or your individual risks. A healthcare professional can tell you more about your own health.
Who is the calculator for?
Anyone who wants to understand their proportions for clothing, styling, or tracking changes. It has a female mode and a male mode, and works in inches or centimetres.
