When i wear dresses I get compliments left and right. I think that anyone can look great in a dress. Saying that less curvy women don't look as good in dresses is inconsiderate and rude.

When it seems that no types of pants and jeans fit, it can be hard not to start to believe that there is something wrong with myself But as soon as the right dress is put on, and I get compliments like "stunning", and "WOW"; it makes every worry seem to fly out the window!

Making a broad statement that straighter figured women never look as good as curvy women in a dress is a little too harsh for me. As well as saying skinny women always look better in jeans since skinny girls can look bad in jeans if the cut doesn't fit to their butt, is loose in the waist or has empty space poking out on the sides cause their hips don't fill it out. (yes, i speak from experience. i hate jeans shopping) I think the model on the right looks great in that dress, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't also look great on a curvy girl as well. A short dress is a great way for a straight, tall girl to show off long legs. Analyzing how a dress looks on someone shouldn't totally focus on bust and butt, it should recognize the other assets that are also shown off in a dress like legs, neck, shoulders, arms... I think that is the beauty of dresses, they look different on every body type but still look good because they show off ALL the features that make us feminine.

It took me forever to embrace the dress, but now that I have, there's no going back. I've got a small waist and some serious junk in the trunk, and nothing makes the most out of my curvy proportions like a classic sheath. Now that it's summer, I hope to abandon pants altogether for skirts and dresses - clothes that were *made* for women! Abandoning pants sounds risqué, but you guys know what I mean. ;) Here here!

I have learned to embrase my hourglass shape and this post is giving light to my path.... I do have a problem though.... I have a 36 C bust and I do have problem finding dresses or blouses that give enough coverage to it. I usually feel that I am showing too much. Any help please!! Thanks Angie.

This was a timely post for me. I just finished shopping mercilessly for a dress for a wedding, ended up with a sheath for my rectangle body by process of elimination. Now I know why...Cameron Diaz and I have the same shape...what a pity! LOL Now I feel so much better! This comes back to the post on Style--feeling and looking good in clothes for YOUR body!
