Has Zon tried empire waisted (a misnomer because the "waistline" starts directly under the bosom) or bias cut dresses?

I found a bias cut dress that fits like a dream. I felt curvy and sexy for the first time in years!

As for you, I vote for the kilt. Kilts...., well, let's say that kilts lead to prurient thoughts.

As for shirts, I recommend buying the right size shirt to fit your neck and then taking it to the tailor's to adjust everything else, especially while your shape changes due to exercise. When your shape stabilizes, you can invest in tailored shirts made specifically for you.

She loves the Empire style for dresses. I still think she'd look great in a micro-skirt, but that ain't never gonna happen. Bias cut? No clue. She might though, I'll ask her.

One word: Utilikilt. Comes with a "privacy" snap. Nyah-nyah.... no standing under ladders for you.

Yeah... I did that already a few years ago. Seems sucky shelling out the extra dough for Mongo sized shirts only to have half a yard of cloth removed to make 'em fit every where else but still have the neck fit right.

My turn to go, fellas!

Thursday afternoon/evening means piano lessons x 3; swim practice x 3; and bell choir practice.

If I have any energy left, I'll check in later this evening!

TTYL!
