I like the dress and I think it will look great on you, however the proof will be in tryi g it on and seek now it works on your hip area. I love this style but do d it adds too much bulk to my hips but I am shorter and hippier than you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715248 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 23:55:09 +0000 Caro in Oz 715248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Worth a try for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715197 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 23:07:14 +0000 Transcona Shannon 715197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this has the potential to look really, really good you Mo. I think it's worth trying. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715191 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 23:01:41 +0000 Mo 715191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, thanks, you all have convinced me to give it a try. I can always return (and all too often do - sigh). I need a jersey dress in my closet anyway </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715180 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 22:47:31 +0000 rute 715180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i had one with a similar bottom and looked great on me (hourglass), the only thing I don't like are the spaguetti straps.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715175 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 22:43:57 +0000 catgirl 715175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this will look great but it's the kind of shape I like for my lack of hips. If you're self-conscious about that area (which you SHOULDN'T be!), that may be an issue... it's a lovely dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715165 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 22:37:14 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 715165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would look great on you. But then, I think pretty much everything works on you. You have a great shape and clothes love you. Try it and see how you feel in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715163 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 22:34:37 +0000 Anonymous 715163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The mannequin looks a lot more pear shaped than you are. And it's hips are more X than 8. Things generally look much better on you than the models, so I think it it's worth a try. The draping should be really nice and the waist isn't super fitted, so that shouldn't be a problem. It seems to fit your style direction too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-715003 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 20:02:50 +0000 Diana 715003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually love this tulip skirt shape for my pear shaped body and it is surprisingly flattering. It does depend on where exactly the pockets hit though - the top of the pockets have to be at or above your widest point, otherwise they look like saddlebags. </p> <p>Personally, I could not pull off the top part of the dress but you have stronger shoulders than I do so I think you could! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-714971 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 19:44:46 +0000 texstyle 714971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, I think your shoulders and the lighter skin will help balance the top of this dress and like Scarlet said, you are in great shape and should be able to pull it off. If you love the dress I'd at least give it a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-714950 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 19:32:28 +0000 Mo 714950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scarlet thanks, but I think my 8 tendencies are more pronounced since that pic (2 months ago). Imagine another inch on the high hip - still fine for the pocket drape? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-714940 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 19:28:19 +0000 Scarlet 714940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could imagine this looking good. You are so fit and well proportioned, I would give it a shot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-dress-on-my-shape#post-714931 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 19:23:36 +0000 Mo 714931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A friend just Skyped me in this dress (in aqua) and it looked so great on her I went searching for my own. The thing is, she is very busty with near to no hips, I am pretty much the opposite. Then again, I seem to be getting thicker in the waist these days and a little less pear-like. Do you think this could work on my hourglass shape - or will the pockets be a disaster? </p>
