Body Shape Masterclass Ep 8 | Styling a Pear-Shaped Body Over 40 (ft. My Mum!)

In this Body Shape Masterclass, Personal Stylist Melissa Murrell styles her mum — a petite, pear-shaped woman in her 70s. The focus is on creating a flattering, modern look that feels age-appropriate but never dated. From balancing proportions to choosing the right shapes, Melissa shares how to make everyday outfits feel fresh and confident, whatever your age.
