Hi Lorraine

Your body type is the most womanly; so you want to dress in a more modest way to avoid the tendency of looking tacky or trashy. Dressing your figure in a classic style dress, can look absolutely fabulous because you are already balanced in a super feminine way.

Soft Blues Rosy Brown Navy Beige Violet and Plum would look lovely with your coloring.

This dress is a nice choice, it is sleeveless and works well in warm weather or cool.
