Just asking what kinds of dresses everyone like long short what kind of fabric I am looking for a few suggestion too add to my collection
hugs kim
Jean skirts
with the right shape of body or using padding love those bodycon dresses
Hi Kimberly, hope you’re well…
I love 50’s retro dresses….love the bright colours and the swiiiiiiish.!!!!…but most dresses are fine depending on the occasion….
I agree with Ms Plumb…loose and flouncy so I don’t need to tuck too much, just tight panties…. It’s getting warmer in England now, so all that strapping around the undercarriage is a no- no…..
Check the returns policy when you buy….then try EVERYTHING…there will be a style you love, but look at the fun you can have searching for it…
huggs, grace x
Yes miss Grace I am doing ok embracing Kimberly more she likes to control the thoughts and I like the way she does

Daytime (casual). Smart below the knee skirt, (I’m too “mature” for minis/bodycons). On top classic blouse and drop waist cardi for the lack of a female “rear end”.
“Cocktail hour”. 3 pierce ensemble, skirt, matching cami and jacket.
Evening (formal) Mother of the bride dress or full length evening gown with train and matching jacket.
Fantasy. “Scarlett O Caty” replica Civil war gown or going back even further Marie Antionette with panniers and “piled high on top, ringlets down the side.
Photos of “all of the above” are available on my CDH profile

Definitely love swing dresses, any form of lace and cotton dresses so feminine, and lovely for the summer too. Everyday tend towards cord skirts or a nice cotton skirt just above the knee. Love the pencil skirt white lace top look.
In terms of length, somewhere around the knee seems to work for me.
At the moment, whilst SO is unaware of my dressing, if I wear something with a low neckline then I wear a t-shirt or vest under it to hide the chest hair so no cleavage on display currently!
Try things, see what you like and just go for it!

Hi Kimberly,
Most of my dresses are mid-thigh. I like bright colors, floral patterns, pleats, soft fabrics. I like to twirl. I love the feeling of driving with the window down and a warm breeze making the hemline flutter and tickle my legs. I have shoulders so I choose open sleeves or sleeveless. I like the Girl-Next-Door look.
For the longest time, I shied away from any dresses. I guess I never found a dress that I liked and at a size the fit me well.
However, last year I bought a really nice sleeveless LBD, I didn’t think much of it but wearing it for the first time, it was snug and form fitting, it really highlighted my silicone hips very well, and I just fell in love with it. Now, it is my favourite go to dress. I would classify that dress as bodycon/pencil, as it is form fitting.
My fave style is bodycon/pencil style, but for me it is very tough to find one that is form fitting.
Hi Kimberley
My favourite type of dress is a bodycon style, they are mainly midi length which fall just below my knee and its a nice length to wear with my boots as well.

Bodycon dresses are so on point at the moment who would of thought it as id never heard of them before I bought 2 or 3 of them a few months ago
Hi Kimberly, I haven’t met a dress I didn’t like though I do prefer skater style dresses that are a bit loose. Totally agree with Stephanie that tucking is then less of an issue unlike with those really tight dresses. I guess I’d have to say my favorite is my LBD for cocktail parties. Lots of lace. Wish I could find a place to wear it though (other than my house). It wouldn’t be something for strolling through the grocery store. I have a couple of floor length dresses but most dresses are at the knee. I also have a couple of shorter dresses, but again they are for special events like going to a wedding or gala. Oh and I have a gold sequin dress that I picked up at a Sears closing out sale $10, I wish I also bought the red one!!!! We need to have a CDH event post-covid (close by where I can wear these party dresses). Thanks for the question, Good Luck with your shopping, Hugs, Krista
Hi Kimberly

Hi Kimberly its bodycon dresses for me knee length with a rear split, I also love silk and/or lace dresses. I just love the feeling of them brushing against the skin, a dress with a belt is nice helps to give more shape. Dresses for me must have distinctive colours, I love Red – Cerise -Pink – Floral and every girl must have their little Black dress. I also like my dresses to be zipped I love the feeling of the zip going up.
Love Sarah xx
Mostly a sheath style dress, a little fitted, either no sleeves or short sleeves or full length sleeves, coming just above the knee, with a v-neck or scoop neck (not straight across). I think I’d also like a sweater dress. If I was a lot younger (and a touch lighter), a tank and fitted skirt.
Like those knit slit dresses too where show view of one leg Oh everyone has to have some type of little black dress now.
I like bodycon really tight stuff. Some things do look good on me. Long sleeve. I love skinny jeans. Skirts and mini skirts well above the knee. I did see a dress the other day that was full length and I really want it. Something that I would not normally buy but it was beautiful. I love leather, denim and spandex.

OctaviaMy favorite are pretty little confections like this one…pink!

I’m finding out that I notice what women are wearing way more than I used to. And most of the time I love what I see. All of them. Still I have a soft spot for the pencil dress. 💕💋 Katie
most of my dresses are knee high length, pretty in color, red , blue and some with colorful design that look feminine looking. sexy when wearing them. some times silk and sometimes satin if i can find them. but mostly knee high and with some cleavage showing. what they would call a v neck kind of . i have more dresses and wear them more then wife does. and matching nylons, don’t forget to wear panties and pad, lacy bra also. and boob inserts
Thank you ladies for all the input on this it really helps and yes the saying is every girl must have a little black dress in the closet
hugs Kimberly
first off, I only dress at home so I don’t dress lieI would if I went out. That said I love bodycon dresses. Tight, short and slutty! If you looked in my closet that is what you would mostly find. I had a couple “normal” dresses. something a woman might wear to a conservative party, a wedding perhaps, but they are not may favorite.
I have a silicone breast plate and I like to wear it with a low cut bodycon dress and show off a bunch of cleavage. Like all of the cleavage!
🌺 I went out on the town last night with a few cd gf’s..🍭🌼 I wore a black mini skirt ( a couple inches above knee) with red floral pattern hose. I like any type of skirt or dress actually 💜 🌻
Hi Kimberly, tough question since I am still discovering styles that I love. My favorites would be knee length and a 3/4 sleeve. Tho I still like the skater dresses and bodycon type, I really like something with a faux wrap, I love the way it helps frame my boobs. I still do not have a full ankle length dress tho’, I’ll need to add that! I have a couple of beautiful summer dresses I just love – white and black with a splash of red – dont know their “style”, other than short and cute, lol.
I guess I’m saying I can’t really pick a favorite…. 😅.

Less known fabrics are tencel and tactel. Usually found in shapewear, but can also find a fitted or bodycon dresses/skirts. Often found in some hosiery but sometimes in clothing is polyamide. Super soft and stretchy. Those would be my favourite materials. In Asian sites such as Aliexpress, you’ll find a material type called “ice silk.” Not made of silk but polyester. Feels like silk, stretches like polyamide and durable. Usually comes as transparent pants, panties or bodysuits. Can find in dresses or skirts, but will always be tight fitting and translucent. Be careful about sizing on Aliexpress. Majority of items are Asian sizes which is 1 or 2 sizes larger than USA/Canada. Our M is L or XL in Asia. Also shoe sizes are either EU or Chinese numbers which is similar. For U.S. equivalent, it’s all over the map. I’m a 9, but on Aliexpress, I could be a 7.5 or 8. I’m EU 39, but Chinese equivalent is 40.
A rauched surprice bodycom mini or midi. I not sure if I spelled either of them correctly. Super sexy and hides anything.
Bodycon definitely…shows off my curves and helps me narrow down my walking gait/stride. Since I am a plus size gal standing at around 6 feet tall, midi length would be the shortest I would want to go (maxi length preferably) if I am wearing it out in public running errands or just out and about. But when it comes to nightlife I’ll do a mini length if it falls correctly on me ;). Fabric would have to be stretchy and strong to handle my curves consistently ;).
