Body Visualizer

Numbers on a scale or a tape measure are hard to picture. This body visualizer turns your height, weight and measurements into a body you can turn around in 3D, and shows your BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, waist-to-height ratio and body shape as you go.

If you searched for "what does my body look like" or "what does my weight look like at my height", start with height and weight, then add your bust or chest, waist and hip. Type your numbers, watch the body change, and spin it to see the front, side and back.

It shows proportion, not a photograph. Two people with the same numbers can still look different, because a tool like this cannot know about muscle, posture or bone structure. Treat it as a clear visual reference.

The body is built from horizontal slices. At the shoulders, bust, waist, high hip and hip, each slice is an ellipse whose circumference matches the number you typed. The width and depth of each ellipse come from that circumference and typical front-to-back proportions, and the slices are joined into one smooth surface. The rings on the body show where your tape measurements sit.

Your height sets how tall the body is, and the ruler beside it is drawn to real scale, so a taller person really is taller in the frame and a shorter one is smaller. Weight works through your BMI: a higher BMI makes the arms, legs and neck fuller as well as the torso, and a lower one makes them slimmer. If you add your inseam, the legs and torso share that height in your proportions, so a longer inseam means longer legs and a shorter torso. Neck, upper arm and thigh are optional and change those parts of the drawing. Whatever you leave out uses typical proportions for your height and weight.

Auto-balance keeps your proportions when height or weight changes: the other measurements are rescaled with them. Turn it off to change one value at a time. The Women, Men and Neutral models differ in shoulders, chest, waist, hips, legs, neck and head, and Neutral sits halfway between the two. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is scanned.

The 3D view uses WebGL, which modern phones, tablets and computers support. If your device or browser does not, the visualizer switches to a 2D outline on its own.

1. Choose a model and unitsPick Women, Men or Neutral, and inches and pounds or centimetres and kilograms. Switching units converts what you have already entered.
2. Enter height and weightType them or drag the sliders. The weight range follows your height, from BMI 16 to BMI 60, and the BMI appears at once.
3. Add your measurementsBust or chest, waist and hip. Open More measurements for high hip, shoulders, neck, upper arm, thigh and inseam.
4. Or start from a shapeTap a shape under Try a shape to set a typical pattern at your hip size, then adjust it.
5. Turn the bodyDrag it, use the Rotate slider, or tap Front, ¾, Side and Back. Spin keeps it turning slowly, and the arrow keys turn it a step at a time. The 2D button gives you a flat outline.
6. CompareChoose Compare to see two bodies side by side, or Overlay to lay Body B over Body A. Use Edit A and Edit B to change each one, Copy A→B to start B from A, and Swap to flip them.
7. Read the analysisThe cards beside the body (under it on a phone) show your BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, waist-to-height ratio, an estimated body fat percentage and your shape, and the Full breakdown below explains each one.
8. Change the lookTurn the measurement rings and the height ruler on or off, and pick a body colour.
9. Save or shareCopy a link that reopens your numbers, or download an image.

Not sure where the tape goes? The body measurements guide shows every measuring point.

In Women mode the visualizer uses height, weight, bust, waist, high hip and hip, and names your shape from the same rules as our calculators: hourglass, top hourglass, bottom hourglass, spoon, pear, inverted triangle, apple or rectangle. The high hip is what separates a spoon from a pear, so add it if you can. Shoulders are optional and only change the drawing, not the shape name.

For a full result with styling ideas, use the female body shape calculator.

Switch to Men and enter your chest, waist and hip. Add your shoulders, measured all the way around, for the most reliable result, because male builds are decided by the gap between shoulders and hip. The visualizer shows a male body and names one of five builds: inverted triangle, trapezoid, rectangle, triangle or oval.

For fit and style advice by build, use the male body shape calculator.

The Neutral model

Neutral sits halfway between the women and men bodies. Use it when neither fits, or to compare two people of different sexes in the same scene, since each body in Compare has its own model.

Compare draws two bodies side by side at the same scale and angle, so differences in height and weight show. Overlay lays Body B over Body A as a translucent outline so every difference stands out. Both add a table of changes below the tool.

• Height and weight comparison: set each body's model, height and weight, and see how two people compare.
• Before and after: tap Copy A→B, change B, and see the difference.
• Measurement change: try a waist that is 2 in smaller, or a hip 1 in larger, and watch the ratios move.

A plus sign in the table means Body B is larger than Body A at that point. Goal bodies are references, not targets, and no shape or size is better than another. The visualizer does not draw bodies below BMI 16. If you are thinking about changing your weight, talk to a doctor or registered dietitian first.

Tap any of these under Try a shape, or set Body B to one in Compare mode. This is what sets each one apart in the silhouette itself.

• Hourglass body shape: bust and hip curves land almost on the same line, with the waist pulling sharply inward between them.
• Pear body shape: the hip curve reaches out past the shoulder and bust lines while the upper body stays narrow and straight.
• Spoon body shape: like a pear at first glance, but with a visible ledge just under the waist where the high hip widens.
• Inverted triangle body shape: shoulder and bust lines are the widest point, narrowing steadily to the hip.
• Rectangle body shape: shoulder, bust and hip lines sit close together with only a slight waist taper.
• Apple body shape: the waist line comes out as wide as, or wider than, the bust and hip, so the fullest point sits in the middle.

• The figure is illustrative. Each slice of the torso has the circumference you entered, so the proportions between your bust, waist and hip are true to your numbers. Depth, arms, legs and head use typical proportions unless you add measurements.
• BMI is a screening measure. It should be read with other factors and cannot separate muscle from fat.
• Body fat is an estimate. It uses the U.S. Navy circumference method, which needs height, waist and neck (and hip for women). If you leave neck blank, a typical neck for your size is used. Individual results can be off by several percentage points, so use it to watch trends rather than as a measurement.
• Adults only. BMI categories apply to adults 20 and older. Children and teens need age and sex specific percentiles, and pregnancy changes the picture too.
• Not medical advice. If a number worries you, ask a health professional.
