The Hourglass and the Top Hourglass are very similar, however a gown will look different on each type. The Top Hourglass is going to focus on a larger bust measurement where the standard hourglass is a more equal bust to hip ratio.
The Spoon and Pear are also similar shapes. The main difference lies in the transition between the waist and hip. A pear with have a gentle slope, like a hill, where a spoon is more like a cliff.

Now that you know your shape, you can begin looking into what cuts and styles will flatter your frame. And remember, no dress is going to be 100% perfect off the shelf. Fabrics will shrink and warp in the wash, and gowns should be tailored to fit. Always bring your gown to a Certified Wedding Gown Specialist and a Professional Seamstress for all your Dry Cleaning and Alterations needs.
