Mozza
Look for a sundress that had some structure in the torso or a defined waistline to show off your curves; Mozzas can often look a size bigger in flowy attire because their small waists are hidden. This is the key for you in styling this piece. Try a cut that skims your curves, an A-line with V-neck halter like in our inspiration picture. A material like jersey or a light weight knit will provides some cling in all the right places to flatter your body!
Chala
Look for a sundress that sports an empire or gathered waist, this will really bring focus to the waist and create more fullness in both the bust and hips for a curvier appearance. A classic A-line cut is always a great choice for Chalas, as picture in our inspiration piece above. A crocheted look or a challis cotton fabric look great on your body but you can pull off any fabric you choose!
Tawnie
Look for a sundress that sports an empire or gathered waist. This will give you some fullness and create the illusion of top & bottom curves. Keep with thin straps or a strapless to show off your shoulders, like in our inspiration piece above; thick straps will make you seem smaller. A stiffer fabric such a a calico cotton blend will also help give you some fullness but you can wear any fabric. And remember to keep your hemline up above your knee!

Jozie
Look for a sundress that has a higher, defined waistline. You want to keep any torso definition well above your belly button to draw the eye up and show off your little waist. A dress with a deep V-neck top or thin spaghetti straps will draw attention to the bust & shoulders giving you a more balanced appearance. Look for a flowy, full A-line skirt to skim over potential trouble spots. A light knit or crepe like material will create an optimal look for any Jozie!
Suza
Look for a sundress that has a high or empire waist. This style will skim over potential problem areas in the torso and draw attention to the smallest part right under the bust line for a curvy appearance. Go for thin straps or strapless dresses, this will really show off your shoulders & thin arms! A deep V-neck cut on the top will give you the look of a fuller chest. A soft challis, cotton material will best compliment your body!
Lola
Look for a sundress that has thicker straps or demi-sleeves. This will help downplay the width of your shoulders and give your look a more feminine feel. An empire waist higher waist will accentuate your great bust line and add some volume to the hips. A cut that draws the eye to the waistline will give you the look of curves like our inspiration picture above. A medium weight knit or calico cotton will give you the right amount of volume!
