Show Off Your Curves

See yourself in this To look at most clothing stores, you’d never know that the average American is considerably overweight. Size-2 and even -0 clothes crowd store racks, draped on hangars almost as thin as the women flipping through them. Until now, the rest of us had to settle for flowing dresses under hip-hiding blazers when we wanted to dress up for a night.

Not anymore! This gorgeous satin “Marilyn” dress ($69.99, in various colors) comes in plus-sizes and shows off those curves to advantage. The halter-style top is flattering to any figure, with a plunging neckline that elongates the torso and narrows the waist, and the 3/4 length is flattering to most heights. Arms not in the best shape? No worry: the dress comes with a matching scarf, too. Use it as a shawl, or wear it Audrey Hepburn-style.

Get yours here.

    I really must buy that dress! Not that I have anywhere to wear it. But at that price, not even Frederick’s (which has some sexy plus-size stuff) can come close.

    Isn’t it gorgeous?! I ordered one for a cocktail party we’re going to soon. Can’t wait to wear it – I’ve got some strappy heels that are going to look fabulous with it.
