The ‘wisdom tooth’ figure is the bizarre body shape Kim Kardashian, Holly Hagan and Blac Chyna are going ‘dental’ for
FORGET apples, pears and hourglasses, there's a bonkers new body shape that's taking social media by storm - and it strangely resembles a wisdom tooth.
The 'dental' new look - that Kim Kardashian, Blac Chyna and the cast of Geordie Shore are coveting - is characterised by a very large bottom and spindly legs.
But while this look can (somewhat) be achieved with some uber-flattering Instagram angles, there's only so far tilting your pelvis back and sticking your boobs out will get you.
In fact, personal trainer Ben West of revealed that these stars have gone to great lengths and will work out on a daily basis to achieve the shapely look.
The fitness guru told Fabulous Digital that doing exercises such as squats, lunges, hip thrusts, deadlifts will help shape the glutes and thighs if performed on a regular basis.
Meanwhile, core exercises such as planks, leg raises, pallid holds and Russian twists will sculpt the midsection to achieve that curvaceous wisdom tooth shape.
According to Ben, this new phenomenon is a more extreme version of the hourglass figure - which boasts a slimmer waist and larger hips.
Ben added: "For [people with an hourglass shape], it's more achievable to develop this kind of figure. But this wouldn't be the case for everyone.
"In addition to body type, there are other factors to consider such as the type of training they do, the diet they follow and the surgery they have."
And bearing in mind the prevalence of editing apps such as Photolift which can slim down your shape in seconds, Ben added: "It is important for us to consider that social media is not always a true representation of what somebody looks like in real life."
Along with some serious training, celebs have also mastered the art of the "wisdom tooth" pose - something body language expert Judi James says is "a look full of contradictions."
Judi told Fabulous Digital: "Overall the body shape created is similar to the hourglass figure of the 19th Century when women constricted their waists and padded their hips, bums and breasts to create an idea that was sexual to the point where the women could barely move or breathe."
Need we remind you of THAT scene in Pirates Of The Caribbean where Keira Knightley passed out and fell off the side of a ship?
However, Judi says that today's iteration of the the hourglass is all about looking "strong and aggressive" rather than subservient and weak.
Commenting on the "exaggerated bum, hips and thigh gap", Judi added: "What we have is a compliant, submissive, over-pleasing self-limiting body shape that advertises sexuality in its most basic, almost animal way but with poses struck, facial expressions pulled and muscle displays that signal power and control."
