Not for pear-shaped women
It looks like it cinches at the waist and then flows out, but the under fold is actually very tight to the hip. If you are a pear-shaped person who needs dresses that are fitted at the bust and flow out in order to accommodate your powerful hips and thighs, this dress is not the dress for you.
