Straight & Narrow
If you identify with Kelly Rippa's self titled "boyish" body, then you're in luck. Drop waisted dresses reminiscent of 20's era flappers are a tough look to pull off, but you are one of the few who can do it - and do it well. Lacking a cinched waist of any kind, shifty dresses like these are best on someone with a small bust so that they don't give the appearance of a larger size over all. And because your proportions are equal, you won't have any awkward hugging at certain places. Likewise for mod mini dresses, which allow you to flaunt your legs and arms and will create a gamine look on your straight frame. Dramatic deep V necks can be incredibly chic, and again are best attempted by those with a small bust. So go ahead! Take the plunge! 1.
