Figure 8 in the Styles

Plus Size Shopping

Body Types: Apple/Oval, Pear/Triangle, Full Hourglass/Cello, Figure 8, Strawberry/Inverted Triangle, Banana/H/Rectangle

Figure 8, also sometimes called a Spoon, is not a body shape included in the McJimsey style categories.  So what modifications would be necessary if the rest of your features indicate one of these dominant styles.  I am focusing mostly on the plus sized figure 8.

Figure 8 shape is carries weight at the high hip, just under the waist, and on the bottom.  I used to think it must be about the same as an hourglass, but it's not as round around the hips.
