Ever wonder what your perfect dress would be for that ‘I feel amazing look’?  Not all dresses go with all body types, and let’s face it we are not all stick thin models. Real women need real options. You should always look at the dress individually first and really think about your body type and how it would fit you.  There are so many different body types out there so it really depends on yours.  So here are three guidelines for 3 different sizes, but remember to tweak them based on your individual look.

Versace Crystal Strap Silk Jersey Halter Dress

For the female who goes to the gym everyday:

Why not wear something that shows off all that hard work?! You’ve got, show it. Wear a piece that fits your body, maybe with an open back or a deep V in the front depending on your bust size, A bigger bust, a smaller V, a smaller bust, a deeper V, you do not want your goodies accidentally falling out when you are dancing the night away.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Suzi Chin Maggy Boutique Organza & Taffeta Dress

 
For the female who only goes to the gym a few times:
Wear something that you are comfortable in. You can still wear form fitting dresses, and you should. Depending on how your exact body type is, you should pick something that is fitted rather than not. If it is not fitted then it might make you look larger than you actually are. Be careful in choosing your dress that it is longer than it is wide, this will help elongate your look giving a more slimming appearance. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Suzi Chin Maggy Boutique Dupioni Silk Party Dress

 
 
For the full figured female:

You have got curves and don't be afraid to show them! Everyone has a problem area that they focus on, not necessarily something that others see, but rather something that you focus on. As a rule whatever you pick, you should feel comfortable in. It doesn’t matter is Tory Burch herself made the dress for you; if you are not comfortable it will show. Pick something that accentuates your attributes, and that flows away from the body and has movement. This will allow you feel comfortable and look fabulous at the same time.
