What dress would look good with my body type?

Juanita T asked:


I’m short about 5’3ish, stocky build, not fat nor skinny. I’m relatively proportional with a full bust and full rear, but not too hippy. I’m pretty sure right at or above knee length is good for me, but the bust and rear issues can complicate things. I’m looking at this dress:

    DO NOT BUY THAT DRESS! trust me! fashion disaster if you do! get one of those dresses that are tight under the chest then kinda fling out. they’ll look good.

    although thats a pretty dress, the length of it might make you look more stumpy, since the shortness of it might not accentuate your legs as well. imo anywayz.

    Not sure that looks pretty snug if your worried about your bum and chest fitting in it.

    that dress isn’t that cute , it seems like it will make you look boxy , you might wanna try a short Halter Dress . to show off your curves .. good luck also you might not wanna buy a dress unless you can try it on

    probably not…try to find something else.

    if you want to go for something asian or oriental looking there are a bunch of dresses out there. you should find one that accents your curves not hides them, but at the same time go for the style of dress you like. I would also probably recommend higher heel maybe three inches or more to lengthen your legs and raise you up. because you are stocky try to avoid dresses that are this “box” shaped find something that curves out a little bit more, there are other good oriental dresses out there
