Question Posted Saturday September 8 2007, 7:49 pm
Okay, with my body measurments my bust is a small, my waist is a large, and my hips are like a medium. Really weird, I know. But I do not know what size to buy my hamecoming dress. It's strapless so I don't want any wardrobe malfunctions. So, let me know what size I should buy. Thanks!!!

Figure out what the number measurements of the dress sizes are and compare that to your body measurements. If it's poofy on the bottom, you don't have to worry about your hips and if it's loose in the middle, you don't have to worry about your waist. With your body type, you should not buy a strapless dress without trying it on first. Because it's strapless, it's key that it's tight enough on top to stay up, so you'd want a small. BUT it still needs to be able to fit over your waist and hips. A small probably wouldn't. Strapless dresses don't fit well with your body type at all and I suggest that you save yourself the trouble and don't get a strapless dress. Not only that, but it would accent the wrong parts of your body. Strapless dresses just aren't right for your body type, period. If you insist upon it though, there's no way of knowing what size to get unless you try it on. Good luck. [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
