If you have always wanted to have perfect curves like those of Helen Mirren and Kate Winslet then there is some good news for you. Researchers have able to calculate a formula for the perfect hourglass figure so that dreams of thousands can be fulfilled in an easy manner.
The formula was devised by scientists at the University of Manchester working with the supermarket chain Asda; bust size and ratios of the thigh-height and hip-waist are the crucial dimensions, as per the researchers.
From Timesofindia.indiatimes.com:
The hip-waist ratio is reached by dividing the circumference of the waist by that of the hips – with 0.7 being the optimum result – and scores of one to five are assigned for “body curve line” and “body symmetry” based on visual assessment.
The higher the total score, the more perfect the hourglass shape, said researchers. “The human curve has come to represent the healthiest and most fertile form, highlighting the most suitable breeding partner and has evolved to be universally attractive to males for that reason,” the Telegraph quoted Dr David Holmes, a senior psychology lecturer at the University of Manchester as saying.
“The perfect curve also impacts on other females creating mixed responses of both respect and jealousy,” he added. A survey conducted as part of the research found that 72 per cent of men are attracted to curvier women – citing a full bust, small waist and rounded bottom as the most attractive physical attributes.
On the other hand, 63 per cent of women would prefer to look like curvier celebrities such as Helen Mirren, Kate Winslet and Alesha Dixon than slimmer stars like Cheryl Cole.
This research was conduced for marking the launch of Asda’s new ‘Tummy Tamer’ dress and skirt, which are designed to hide and sculpt excess flab and help women achieve an hourglass shape.
