The Skinny Dress

I'm not sure how I feel about this one quite yet, but I've been seeing it everywhere. The skinny dress is exactly what it sounds like- a form fitting, not so forgiving dress. Most of these dresses look like their meant to be undergarments. They look great on a slender or petite frame, but could be devastating if you haven't made it to the gym in a month.
You would definitely have to be careful with what you wore under this type of dress- an itsy bitsy thong that shows absolutely no lines would be my only solution--definitely not worth pulling a Britney over.
Personally, these dresses are a little too boring for me...I'm too in love with embellishments. But hey, if you've got it- flaunt it....these dresses are an excellent way to show off a great body.
