TADA! how'd I do?

If we we all had our own personal fashion consultant, imagine how more confidently beautiful we all would feel!

However I find that ruffles around my bust (like in the second dress from the right) make me look more busty than I'd like. Bias-cut is wrong wrong wrong for me as I also have saddlebags. And now I'm just rambling. In conclusion, I loved this post :) I am absolutely an apple and this was a great summary of the dress shapes that suit me.

I am 38-31-39, 5'4 3/4" . Big strong shoulders, very short (non-existent ) waist, and muscular thighs and great calves. I don't feel apple or pear. What do I look for?? Hi Angie-

I’m having trouble figuring out which shape I am. I am 38-31-39, 5′4 3/4″ . Big strong shoulders, very short (non-existent ) waist, and muscular thighs and great calves.

I don’t feel apple or pear. What do I look for??

I cannot find ANYTHING for day or evening that is not sleeveless other than "mother-of-the-bride" dresses. Angie,
