I love that wrap dress. I'm a slim hourglass and I've never worn a wrap dress. Definitely on my wishlist. Thanks!=) Great advice! I love that wrap dress.

You really have very little tummy. But beyond that, what I would say is this: the cinching should occur right below your breasts - the smallest part of your body - rather than around your belly. Then the fullness of the dress bottom should cover over problem spots. Also, look for a well structured dress; it should have seaming that will help smooth out areas, almost like a corset. A wrap dress is also a nice choice because they generally have some fullness to hide problem spots, but look for one that once again ties below the bosom like the third dress in the curvy section. I hope this helps! You know, I would probably say you are more of a pear than “middle-weighted,” lol! You really have very little tummy.

While many are kind and call us "curvy," we are the opposite of an hourglass and cinching at the waist usually ends up tightening at the largest part of our body. Any suggestions?
