Which of these body measurements do you prefer. I'm trying to lose weight as I'm currently 35-27-38 (size 8) and I obviously can't change the actually proportions, so please could you pick one of the measurements below as your preference. I am a 25 year old woman of 5ft2 and 120lb Please bear in mind I have naturally wide hip bones, so there is no chance of going under 34 inch hips or I will literally just be bones, plus my boobs will be non existent.
Thank you.
1)34-26-37 (Size 6)
2)33-25-36 (Size 4)
3)32-24-35 (size 2)
4)31-23-34 (size 0)

PS Please can you only choose from the options as other measurements are not really very helpful as I can only work with what I have! Thanks again : )

From that list, personally I'd prefer 33-25-36.
But some psychologists say that the "ideal" bust-to-waist ratio for most men in most cultures is 1.5, which would imply (for you) that 31-23-34 is as close as you can get. But as you say, that makes you almost skin and bones.
So why not cheat a little? Drop to 34-26-37, and use a corset when you go out to lose an inch or two from the waist. It's a woman's right to wear whatever she likes to be sexy. (And YES, I think corsets are sexy!)

Wow, I'm feeling my age. When i was 18 my figure was 34-23-34 and that made me a size 10-12 what's happened to the measuring systems? No wonder I can't get clothes to fit!
Go for 4 love and do weights and resistance work on your upper body to improve the thrust of your bust.

I think some people from the uk are getting a little confused. Your a us size 8 but a uk size 12 now. At five 2 you would look great being 33-25-36 size 4 which is our size 8. Good luck with your weight loss but don't lose too much too soon and please don't take it too seriously or you might end up like victoria beckham a stick!

Geez Dee. Take a look at what you are doing. Size 8 is great with me. But you are obsessing over a couple of inches here & there. Just get out there & enjoy life while you can. Before you know it you'll be 55 & a size 18.

32-24-35 (size 2) is the perfect size for your height.

sweetie you sound slim enough! A size 8 is small in comparison to the average size in the UK which is 14-18.
Try just being fitter ie running and being toned I don't think you need to loose anymore weight!

I think at your height, a size 4 or 6 would look good. Don't get any smaller than that, though, or you'll look pre-pubescent rather than 25 years old.
