Prom Dresses Size 16

My friend and her daughter, Jenny, just recently went shopping for prom dresses size 16. Being a teenager, Jenny is extremely insecure about her size. It's such a shame because she's quite beautiful and her figure is lovely. Yes, she is a little curvy, but so what. Jennifer Lopez is curvy. The chick from Grey's Anatomy is curvy. Curvy is in. Stick figures are out. And Jenny is not only lovely in figure and form, she's lovely in personality. She's so lovely that it is very hard to even notice her size, until she points it out. She's popular and got invited to the prom by a senior football player, even though she is a sophomore. But for some reason, while they were shopping Jenny was gravitating towards long baggy dresses without any shape or style.

I'm assuming it was to hide her perceived afflictions, but from where I was sitting (next to the dressing room), she looked like a one of those Barbie cake figures. You remember those right? In the 80s you got this Barbie doll torso and head and baked a cake around it in an upside down bowl, so it looked like a dress skirt. That may sound pretty, but instead of starting at the waist, most of what she tried on had the bowl skirt that started at the neck. OK I'm exaggerating a little, but still such unflattering dresses don't hide flaws, they create more. Prom dresses size 16 can look as good (if not better) thank size 0.

My point is that size 16 means a lot of things, but it doesn't mean you need to hide your light under a bushel, as my mamma used to say. Choose flattering dresses that fit well and don't worry about flaws that may or may not be there. Easier said than done, right? But if you're determined to hide problem areas there are a number of styles and things you can use.

Spanx are a great option. Spanx are undergarments that fit and form to the body. To be blunt, they suck in your tummy and any other areas that they cover. They're thin spandex underwear pieces. Think girdles, but more comfortable and that work all over. Some cover just the top, some the bottom, some full bottom and top.

Here are some fun ways to feel sexy:

Hike it up with a short baby doll dress. Show off your legs and no one will pay attention to your hips.

Plunge that neck down and there are very few people that will notice anything else.

Funk it up in vintage dresses. You can find some fantastic styles dresses in size 16 with the 50's rockabilly or Marilyn Monroe style. The Monroe dress is very sleek and sexy.

Empire dresses are incredibly gorgeous and very flattering for almost any figure.

The best way to make your dress look beautiful is to carry it with confidence. Hold your posture straight and you'll appear taller. Put a little bounce in your step and you'll be the life of the party.
