The body types here also apply to plus sizes .  Take a look at yourself in the mirror see what body type you fall under and buy your dress accordingly!  Dress shopping CAN be fun girls, doesn’t matter what size you are!!

STRAIGHT: Banded waist and wrap style dresses help to define the waistline.  Look for graphic that will help fill out a straight shape.

CURVY: Dress with a define waistline will help accentuate sexy curves.

APPLE SHAPE:  Empire waist and babydoll dresses help to camouflage the mid-section.

PEAR SHAPE: The empire waist also benefits those with a pear shape.  Make sure to look for the empire waist with a flare skirt, to help accentuate your waist.

PETITE: Solid prints and small prints will make the most of your height. Remember to pair heels with short dresses and skirts to lengthen your legs.
