dresses for your body type

We have a lot of dresses in store right now, but we thought you might benefit from a body-type breakdown to learn which ones will work for you!

Straight: A body conscious bottom helps accentuate or create curves. Try one (or both!) of these two dresses by Laundry, gold ($275) and red ($198).

Hourglass: Pencil skirts will show off those curves without divulging too much. Consider this Laundry black and white dress ($209) or the Ivy and Blu black and white color block dress ($174). An alternative is the Nicole miller white ruched skirt which can create beautiful curves and simulate a dress when a silk blouse is tucked in.

Pear: A-line skirts help balance out your top and bottom, creating a slimmer look head-to-toe, and the looser fit of the A-line helps minimize your hips. Try the BCBG Jenica dress ($192) which adds a little flare or this great black T-shirt dress by Wilt ($153).

Apple: A flouncy skirt with a higher waist creates the illusion of a waist and emphasizes those legs! Try the BCBG perforated dress ($214), the Milly white fit and flare ($445) or add some color with a Nicole Miller in a similar style ($418).

    All of the dresses in this post are sleeveless. Do you carry any that are not? Thanks.
