What would be good patterns for tops for a pear-shaped person.

Definitely try Sewaholic Patterns who draft for narrow-shoulders, long/regular bust length, Pears, IIRC.

Check out the reviews on PR and the Pearables forum for members with similar shapes as yours.

There are also a few pins of tops for pear-shaped patterns at the Pearables Pinterest Board

I will be adding more as I find them in the Pattern Reviews

I just posted my review of the free Plantain tee and noted the changes I made for my hippy self. It's a very nice top.
