I do get that some designer wear isn't technically flattering to the figure, as there's a graphic aesthetic too, but those 'prom' dresses with the ribbon waist tie make even the models look disproportionate, so what would they do to a woman with an average figure??
I agree! The styling itself is horrible and makes it all look ridiculously cheap, but the fit is terrible on those dresses! They're just shapeless and unflattering on the people they should look best on, what hope is there for the "average" customer? I'm quite glad though really, it saves the effort and money of tracking down the pieces I had thought I liked.I'm not taking into account the styling, doesn't really make an impact. I'm just looking at the prom dress and seeing how it falls on a models body. Then I look at my body and think 'that would be unflattering' as I am no model. Simply, I don't want to own a piece that makes me look physically worse than I already feel!
